Predefined Categories
Using predefined categories to guide the analysis of your documents.
This is the most simple form of analysis, ideal whne you know what you want to get from your data!
Step 1: User-defined categories along with AI instructions
Skimle uses the user-defined categories and AI instructions to extract insights from your data.

The AI instructions are optional; you can use them to guide the breadth of content included in each category.
Step 2: Data extraction
Skimle goes through each of your documents and extracts insights based on the user-defined categories and AI instructions.
Step 3: Form subcategories based on insights
In the last step, Skimle examines insights assigned to each category and forms subcategories. Each insight is then moved to the most appropriate subcategories.
Note: Subcategories are only formed if the category has a meaningful number of insights assigned to it.
The resulting data structure is under insight type "Predefined Categories".

CSV file import
When you import a CSV file, the names of "content" columns are saved and used to create default categories for this analysis type. One more reason to set clear and informative header row for your data before importing it! See supported file formats & CSV import for more on how CSV import works.
