Detecting duplicate content in documents is becoming increasingly important in today's digital world. That's why we provide you with automated duplicate and near-duplicate detection to make it easy to find the most relevant version of a document.

So as soon as you search with uman, you'll see the most relevant version of a document on top and any related documents are grouped allowing users to easily find older versions of the same document.

Look at the following example to see what your workspace would look like without document deduplication:

Not very useful to see that same slide that is used in 30+ presentations pop up in the slides results just because it matches the keyword you're searching for. Same applies to documents and presentations..

..but don't worry, we have got your back! Our automatic document deduplication quickly identifies any duplicates or near-duplicate versions of a document and groups them together so search results are more unique. Look at the same query but with document deduplication:

When a document is detected as a duplicate, the most relevant version is shown and the related documents are grouped so you can always find an older version of the same document if needed..

Click on the number next to the title to view which document are identified as duplicate or near duplicate versions.

Uman's power to detect duplicates and near- duplicates is not only useful for avoiding mistakes, but it can also provide valuable insights into documents. The grouping functionality allows you to explore the data in a more efficient and organized way.
