Abstract: A computer implemented method for providing access to documents across a plurality of separate document repositories includes: providing an index containing a plurality of documents sourced from a plurality of separate document repositories; providing a search result to a user in response to a search query, the search result referencing one or more documents sourced from the plurality of document repositories; extracting content from a plurality of documents sourced from the plurality of document repositories and constructing a data visualization based on one or more user prompts, where, the data visualization includes tabular or graphical data contained in the documents referenced in the search result; and extracting metadata from the documents referenced in the search result. Additionally, the method includes automatically detecting the presence of sensitive information in the extracted content, and allowing the user to select and download the one or more documents referenced by the search result.
