Schematize: An Agentic System for Generating and Refining Information-Extraction Schemas for Legal Research
Empirical legal research often relies on turning research questions into structured data extracted from large collections of rulings and judgments. Designing the extraction schema and then extracting the data remain a manual, expertise-heavy bottleneck. We present schematize, an open-source multi-agent system that interactively turns a researcher's problem statement into a validated extraction schema that can later be used for autonomous extraction. Schematize couples (i) a clarification dialogue that elicits implicit expert intent, (ii) iterative schema generation, (iii) data-grounded refinement that tests the schema against documents, and (iv) chat-based post-editing. We evaluated the s...
