What is Project Vectorisation?
Project Vectorisation is a background process that prepares project documents for use by Cognitive CDE (AI Agents).
During this process, Cognitive CDE:
Breaks project files into smaller sections
Converts them into a format that AI can process
This enables Cognitive CDE to:
Find relevant information faster
Understand the context of queries, not just keywords
Provide more accurate and meaningful responses

How Do I Vectorise Project(s)?
In the Project Filter, select the Projects you want to vectorise.
Navigate to the Files tab.
Select Cognitive CDE from the sub-tabs.
Confirm the Project selection.
To exclude a folder or subfolder, clear the tick in its corresponding box.
Click Next.
Choose the preferred LLM (Large Language Model):
Google AI
Microsoft Azure
Tick the checkbox to confirm that you have read and understood the terms and conditions.
Click Make available for AI.
The application will then begin preparing the Project data for AI processing. This may take a few minutes.
Once processing is complete, the Projects are displayed for use within Cognitive CDE.
NOTE: Cognitive CDE does not grant additional Project access. Users can only access Projects they are authorised to view within the Asite platform.
How Do I Delete Projects from AI?
Removing a Project from Cogitive CDE permanently deletes all AI-generated chats and history for that Project. The Project itself remains unchanged in the CDE.
NOTE: The purge process is the same in both eDiscovery and DeepDive.
