Quotation Extraction

In communications review, public affairs matters, and media-related cases, you often need to find specific quotes -- what someone said, what edits they proposed, or what language was suggested for a speech or press release. Manually searching through email chains and drafts for these fragments is tedious.

Claira can scan documents for quotes intended for inclusion in speeches or public statements, extract them, and attribute them to the right person.

How Claira helps

• Filters for relevant quotes. Instead of returning every quoted phrase, Claira focuses on content that was intended for inclusion in a speech or public statement.
• Attributes quotes to speakers. Each extracted quote is paired with the person who said it or proposed it.
• Captures proposed edits. If a document contains suggested changes to a quote, Claira includes those alongside the original content.

When to use this

• Reviewing communications related to speeches, press releases, or public testimony
• Tracking how messaging evolved across drafts
• Identifying who proposed specific language or talking points
• Building a record of attributable statements

Sample prompt

Adjust the prompt to match your context -- for example, you might specify "press release" instead of "speech," or ask Claira to flag only quotes that were changed between drafts.

Tips for better results

• Be specific about the type of content. "Speech quotes" is different from "all quoted text." The more precisely you describe what you want, the less noise in the output.
• Use the attribution format consistently. The [Name]: '[Quote]' format makes it easy to sort and compare results across documents.
• Test on a few documents first. Quotation extraction depends heavily on how quotes appear in your particular collection. A quick sample run helps you refine your prompt.
