Nexus Requirements
Nexus Data Sources and Evaluation Requirements
Eleven questions decide whether Nexus fits a recurring investigation. Most answers depend on your configuration, so each is confirmed for your account and written into the offer.
What to Settle, and Where the Answer Lives
| Requirement | What to settle | How it is answered |
|---|---|---|
| Source coverage | Which sources each kind of lookup draws on for your account. | Coverage is configured and listed in the quote. No lookup is described as covering every source. |
| Data history | How far back each source goes for the questions you need to answer. | History differs by source. The offer states it for the categories you select. |
| Transform access | Which transform sources are enabled and how their usage is counted. | The quote names the sources included and any that need your own provider key. |
| External providers | Whether a source you rely on needs a separate license or credential. | Provider inclusions, exclusions, and charges are itemized. A framework directory listing is not an entitlement. |
| Supported inputs | The documents, records, and feeds you plan to bring into a case. | A walkthrough shows the supported input types against a sample of your material. |
| Output | What the finding or report must contain for your reviewer. | We compare a sample output with the format your reviewer needs before the evaluation starts. |
| AI processing | Which material case inquiry reads and how AI usage is counted. | AI works from the material in the case. The quote states the AI usage included. |
| Handling and retention | How supplied material is handled, how long it is kept, and what happens at the end. | The agreement states data treatment during and after an evaluation. Confirm this before supplying sensitive material. |
| Users and access | Who needs access and in what role. | The quote covers the team you describe, with roles set in the workspace. |
| Support | The help your team expects during setup and use. | Support and any service level are agreed in the offer. Software access does not include an analyst performing the investigation. |
| Usage limits | What happens when an allowance is reached. | The quote states whether work pauses, a top-up applies, or priced overage is allowed. |
