Guided steps

Follow the task, then check the result.

Confirm the group is safe to batch

Only use bulk actions when the selected items clearly belong together and should receive the same decision.

Grouped detections by category or selected set.
Success check: You know why every selected item should receive the same action.

Apply the bulk action

Choose redact, keep, or reclassify for the selected group. Reclassify only when the new category makes the output easier to understand.

Success check: The selected group updates to the expected review state.
