File Organization
GC AI Files help you organize your legal documents in a structured, searchable system. With proper organization, you can quickly find and use your documents when needed.
Folder Structure
- Create nested folders to organize documents by project or type
- Use consistent naming conventions for folders and files
- Search across all files regardless of folder location
- Access multiple file spaces (My Files, Shared, Organization Files) in a single chat
- Drag and drop files directly into chats, or use the
+ menu to select Add from computer or Add from Files (which opens the sidebar to Files and focuses search)
- See file badges showing which documents are attached to your current chat
Organization Types
GC AI provides three main organization areas for your documents:
- My Files - Your personal document storage, visible only to you
- Shared with me - Documents others have shared with you
- Organization Files - Team-wide document storage for collaboration
Creating an Organized Structure
To create a new folder:
- Open the right sidebar
- Select My Files or Organization Files
- Select Create Folder
- Name your folder using a clear, descriptive title
- Upload your documents to the appropriate folder
Sharing Documents
Share your folders and files with team members:
- Right-click on any file or folder
- Select Share
- Choose sharing options:
- Specific individuals (by email)
- Your entire organization
- Private (keep to yourself)
Document Updates
When updating documents:
- Delete or keep the previous version
- Upload the new version to the same folder
- Use GC AI to analyze differences between versions
- Consider using version numbers in filenames (e.g., Policy_v2.1)
Search Capabilities
GC AI’s powerful search helps you find documents across your files:
- Results appear instantly from all accessible files
- Filter results by file type or collection
Create and document your organization system early—it’s much harder to
reorganize later when you have hundreds of documents.
