Your documents, working for a living

Marella turns the documents your organisation already has into an asset you can question — privately, with citations, under your rules.

Marella — Policy review

What does our retention policy say about client files after an engagement closes?

Client files must be retained for seven years after the engagement end date, then reviewed for secure disposal. Files under legal hold are excluded until the hold is lifted.

¶ Retention policy · §4.2 ¶ Engagement handbook · p.18
Ask across 4,120 documents…

Source · Retention policy.pdf

Every answer links to the exact passage it came from — verification is one click, not a treasure hunt.

From pile of PDFs to working memory

  1. Step 1

    Ingest

    Drives, inboxes, exports — including scanned and poor-quality PDFs

  2. Step 2

    Understand

    Documents parsed into passages, entities and concepts

  3. Step 3

    Connect

    The knowledge network links what belongs together

  4. Step 4

    Answer

    Agents respond with citations back to the source

01

Ask, and check the answer's working

Chat runs against your corpus, not the open internet. Citations sit inside every answer and open the source passage beside the conversation — reading the evidence is part of the flow, not a separate chore.

A dedicated validation agent can re-check answers against the source documents themselves, flagging any claim the evidence doesn't support.

Answer

The notice period is 90 days for enterprise agreements signed after March 2024.

¶ MSA v3 · §12.1 ¶ Renewals note

No supporting passage? Marella says "the documents don't say" — not a confident guess.

02

A knowledge network, not a search index

As documents arrive, Marella extracts the people, companies, topics and concepts inside them and links them into a network your team can browse, correct and build on. Curation tools — ontology, consolidation — keep it clean as it grows.

Agents, skills and templates

Give each team an agent that knows its documents, follows its playbook and writes in its format. Skills make capabilities reusable; templates make outputs consistent; scope decides what each agent may touch.

An orchestrator draws on a registry of specialist agents — research across your knowledge base, the web, PubMed and legislation; standards-compliance and audit-readiness checks; calculation, vision and document generation.

Agent Scope: Legal · 1,204 docs

Contract review

Checks agreements against the negotiation playbook, flags deviations with citations.

Agent Scope: Operations · 342 docs

Policy assistant

Answers on current policy versions only; archives are excluded from scope.

Skill Used by 3 agents

Clause extraction

Pulls defined clause types into a structured table with source references.

Template Output format

Board brief

Two-page summary: findings, evidence, open questions — the same shape every time.

Governance without ceremony

Departments mirror your structure. Roles decide capability. The audit trail records the rest. It's the control model your organisation already understands, applied to AI.
