Abstract
Methods and systems of integrated batching and random sampling of documents for enhanced functionality and quality control, such as validation, within a document review process are provided herein. According to various embodiments, a batching request may be received and may include a population size that corresponds to a total amount of documents available for sampling. The batching request may also include an acceptable margin of error. A random sample size may be calculated based on the batching request, and then a subset of documents corresponding to the random sample size may be selected from the total amount of documents available for sampling. The subset of documents may be grouped into one or more batches, and the one or more batches may be assigned to one or more review nodes.
