Lilt’s review sampling settings allow managers to find their team’s perfect balance between reviewing more segments to catch errors and reviewing fewer segments to saving on time and money.
The default settings for review sampling are managed at the organization level, but can be adjusted on a per-Project basis when creating a new Project or in the Project settings page of existing Projects.
The sections below discuss the functionality of the different review sample settings and where the settings are managed within Lilt.
Settings
Review Sample Rate
The review sample rate is a value from 10% to 100% and can be set in increments of 10%. This value controls the percent of segments that will be assigned for review.
For example, in a Project with 20% review sample rate, a document with 100 segments would have 20 segments assigned for review.
Exclude exact matches
If the “exclude exact matches” setting is enabled, the following segment types are excluded from the pool of segments that can be selected for review:
- 100% TM matches
- repeated segments
If this setting is disabled, the above segment types are included in the pool of segments that can be selected for review.
For example, if a document is 100 segments long and has 40 repeated segments, the remaining 60 segments will be included in the pool of segments that can be selected for review. If this document is in a project with a review sampling rate of 20%, then 20% of the remaining 60 segments would be sampled (12 segments).
Managing review sample settings
The default review sample settings are set in the Organization Settings and are used to populate the settings of new Projects. Review sample settings can also be set on a per-Project basis.
Default organization settings
To set the default review sample settings for your organization, navigate to the Organization tab, open the Settings page, and scroll down to the Project Settings section. From there you can set the default settings for:
- review sampling rate
- exclude exact matches
Note: Changing the default setting for review sampling in the Organization Settings does not update the settings of existing Projects.
When creating a new job, the job's projects are automatically created using the default organization settings for review sampling.
Editing existing project settings
Once a Project has been created, you can change the review sample settings by opening the Project, navigating to the Settings page, and scroll down to the Review Sampling section.
After changing the settings, click the Save Settings button to apply the changes. Making changes here will not affect documents that have already been sampled for review.
