Disclosure Review Planner

Enter the relevant details below to calculate whether you have enough resources to meet your deadline and plan for your next disclosure exercise.

Note: This tool calculates two review stages (1LR and 2LR). We assume that you will start 2LR on the next working day after 1LR finishes, although in reality some teams may begin 2LR in tandem with 1LR. Also, you might have additional review stages (such as a third level review); however, this tool does not factor those in.

All required fields are indicated with an asterisk.

*Review Start Date:

*Disclosure Deadline:

First Level Review (1LR)

*Total Documents for 1LR:

*How many reviewers do you plan to use for 1LR?

*How many documents do you estimate each 1LR reviewer to complete per hour?

*How many hours can each 1LR reviewer spend on the review per day?

Are you planning to use Continuous Active Learning (CAL)?

Second Level Review (2LR)

*Percentage of documents that you expect to review at 2LR after 1LR is complete (This is difficult to estimate and might not be accurate in reality – we recommend somewhere between 10% - 50% but it's entirely up to you. You can also enter 0 if you wish to skip 2LR):

*How many reviewers do you plan to use for 2LR?

*How many documents do you estimate each 2LR reviewer to complete per hour?

*How many hours can each 2LR reviewer spend on the review per day?

Disclaimer: This planner provides approximate estimates for scheduling only. Calculations are based on working days (Monday–Friday) and exclude bank holidays for England & Wales. Please verify bank holiday dates and final results as these may change or differ in your jurisdiction. Additionally, actual review speeds vary and factors such as reviewer experience and document complexity (e.g. large file types or media files) can impact review rates and team performance. Always consult your case team before finalising.
