How AI Priority Fields and the Knowledge Panel Work in Tofu

AI Priority Fields and the Knowledge Panel work together to improve extraction and review. Priority Fields define what matters most, while the Knowledge Panel shows confidence scores, references, and rules.

AI Priority Fields

AI Priority Fields let you define which fields Tofie should prioritize during extraction and highlight during review.

Why use AI Priority Fields

Use AI Priority Fields when:

  • Certain fields are more important to your workflow

  • You want reviewers to focus on key fields first

  • You want consistent review behavior across documents


How to set AI Priority Fields

  1. Go to Entity Settings.

  2. Click Features.

  3. Navigate to AI Priority Fields.

  4. Select up to 3 fields per extraction type.

  5. Click Save.

You can update these anytime as your workflow changes.

Note:

  • The order of the priority fields does not matter. Priority 1, 2, and 3 are treated the same. Any selected priority field will be highlighted as important during extraction and review.

  • Only enabled extraction types for the entity are shown as available extraction types. To add more, go to Features β†’ Extraction Types and enable them.


Available fields by extraction type

You can select different priority fields depending on the extraction type.

Knowledge Panel (During Review)

When reviewing extractions, you can open the Knowledge Panel to inspect and refine how Tofie extracted data.

To open it:

  • Click Edit

  • Click the Brain icon in the Extraction Review

A panel will appear below the page preview.

Tip: You can drag the panel divider to resize the Knowledge Panel. This gives you more space and better visibility when reviewing knowledge rules, references, and extracted values.


Target fields navigation

The Knowledge Panel displays all target fields for the selected extraction type.

You can navigate between fields by:

  • Clicking Next / Previous arrows

  • Selecting a field from the dropdown menu

  • Clicking a field directly in the Extraction Review panel

  • Clicking the document field directly in the page preview

Each field represents a structured extraction target for that extraction type.


AI Confidence Score

Each target field includes a confidence indicator:

  • 🟒 Green β€” high confidence score extraction

  • 🟑 Yellow β€” medium confidence score extraction

  • βšͺ Blank β€” no extraction or not applicable

This helps you quickly identify fields that may need review.

πŸ’‘ Pro tip: During review, prioritize fields marked with a yellow indicator β€” these are medium confidence extractions that are most likely to need a quick check. Fields marked green are high confidence and can typically be skimmed.


AI Priority Fields in the Knowledge Panel

Fields configured as AI Priority Fields are marked with a ⭐ icon inside the Knowledge Panel.

If a field is prioritized:

  • The ⭐ appears in a bold/highlighted state

  • These fields are surfaced first in the review flow

This helps reviewers focus on the most important data first.


Knowledge tab

The Knowledge tab shows the knowledge rules applied to the selected target field during extraction.

From the Knowledge Card, you can:

  • View icon β€” see the exact prompt or rule from your Knowledge Base

  • Edit icon β€” modify the knowledge rule directly during review

This allows you to update extraction logic without leaving the review screen, making it faster to refine and maintain your Knowledge Base in one place.


Reference tab

The Reference tab shows the verified extracted values that Tofie used during extraction.

Each reference includes:

  • Verified extraction β€” Opens the related extraction

  • Verified value β€” Confirmed reference value

  • Verified date β€” When the extraction was verified

Use the reference table to trace extracted values back to verified data and better understand how extraction results were determined.


Why this matters

Together, AI Priority Fields and the Knowledge Panel help you:

  • Control what matters most in extraction

  • Review data faster and more consistently

  • Understand how Tofie made extraction decisions

  • Navigate directly from review fields to target field details

  • Edit knowledge rules directly during review

  • Improve future extraction accuracy through verified feedback

  • Keep everything in one unified workflow without switching pages
