Repertorization and Analysis (Selecting Rubrics)

Repertorization in Similia means selecting rubrics from the repertory and analyzing them to see which remedies cover the most important symptoms. Similia makes this fast and visual, so you can focus on clinical reasoning instead of manual counting.

How to repertorize a case in Similia

1. Open a case, or create a new one.
2. Create an analysis.
3. Search for rubrics in the Repertory panel on the right.
4. Add rubrics to the analysis using the + button.
5. Click Analysis to review the remedy grid and the scoring across the selected rubrics.
6. Optionally click Grade to grade rubrics from 0 to 4 and weight their importance, then Done Grading.
7. The analysis is saved automatically inside the case.

You can also start from the Repertory section: rubrics there carry a green + button, and clicking it opens a repertorization with that rubric already on the clipboard, so you do not have to open a case first and find the rubric a second time. Similia creates a case in your "Quick cases" folder and puts the rubric on clipboard A. It works in the search results and in the chapter explorer. Rubrics with no remedies, and personal rubrics you created yourself, do not show it — add those from inside a case analysis. If you are on the Free plan and have reached the monthly limit for cases or analyses, Similia asks you to upgrade instead of starting the repertorization.

Where the rubric search is inside an analysis

Inside an open analysis, search for rubrics in the Repertory panel beside your selected rubrics (on the right on a computer screen) — not the Repertory item in the top navigation bar, which opens the standalone Repertory section. If the remedy grid is showing instead, click Repertory in the analysis toolbar to bring the search back. The panel's green + adds the rubric to the clipboard you have selected.

Quick repertorization

Quick repertorization on the home page creates a new case named "Quick case N" in your "Quick cases" folder, with an empty analysis, and opens it directly. On larger screens the analysis opens as a split view, with the selected rubrics on the left and the Repertory search on the right. Use the Repertory and Analysis buttons at the top to switch between searching and the remedy grid. On a phone the panels are stacked, with a handle between them to resize them. If only one panel is visible on a larger screen, look for the vertical drag handle on the right side of the screen and drag it to reveal the repertory panel.

Printing or exporting rubrics

To print rubrics from an analysis, open the case analysis in the Analysis view (the remedy grid) and use the Export action (a download icon, tooltip "Export Analysis as PNG"). Export downloads the analysis grid as a PNG image, which you can print or insert into a document.

When you trigger the export, Similia lets you choose how many remedies to include in the output (up to 30), so you can keep the image focused on the top remedies of the analysis.

Export works in Chrome and Edge. In Safari and Firefox, Similia shows a message asking you to use Chrome.

If the Export action is not visible, first confirm that you are inside the Analysis view of the case. Export is also unavailable while the family view is on.

The rubric Actions menu (copying a rubric)

Every rubric row has an Actions menu, shown as a ⋮ (three dots) button at the end of the row. Actions that used to sit directly on the row as separate icons are now inside this menu:

• Copy rubric name: copies the rubric heading on its own.
• Copy rubric with remedies: copies the rubric heading together with its full remedy list. This entry stays greyed out for a moment while the remedies load, then becomes available; the label briefly changes to "Copied!" once it is done.
• Copy rubric with selected remedies: shown while you are filtering by remedy, and copies the rubric with the filtered remedies it contains.
• Show in tree, Show rubric description, and Show rubric notes, where they apply to that rubric.
• Duplicate to another clipboard, listed once for each of your other clipboards.

You can also sort the rubrics in a clipboard by Order Added, Hierarchy (Section), Number of Remedies, or Alphabetical.

This is where the old copy icon went: to copy a rubric, open the ⋮ Actions menu on that rubric and choose Copy rubric name or Copy rubric with remedies. The menu is available on rubrics in the repertory explorer, in search results, and in the analysis grid. In the analysis grid the info and show-in-tree icons are still shown directly on the row as well, next to the ⋮ menu.

Adding and removing rubrics

Inside an analysis, each rubric has a green + button to add it to the current clipboard. Once the rubric is added the + becomes a ✓. To remove it again, move the mouse over the ✓: it turns into a bin icon that removes the rubric.

Two things to check if you cannot see a + on a rubric:

• Rubrics that contain no remedies never show a +.
• In the standalone Repertory section, the green + starts a new repertorization with that rubric rather than adding it to an open analysis, and it is not shown on your own personal rubrics — add those from inside a case analysis.

Creating rubrics from Materia Medica (MM Rubrics)

MM Rubrics is the Materia Medica search panel inside an analysis. Click MM Rubrics in the analysis toolbar (a book icon; the words "MM Rubrics" show on larger screens) and the Materia Medica search takes the place of the Repertory search; click it again to go back. Search a symptom (Semantic) or words (Keyword) in the Materia Medica books your account can search, and narrow the Authors if you wish. The remedies found are ticked: untick any you do not want, then click Create Rubric with … remedies. In the "Add MM Rubric" window, name the rubric, check each remedy's weight (1 to 4), and click Add to Analysis. The rubric is added to the clipboard you have selected. It is a working rubric of your own, not a change to the published repertory.

MM Rubrics uses the same search access as the Materia Medica section: Pro, or a premium Materia Medica book that you can search. Without either, the button opens the upgrade prompt. It is hidden when Settings > Work mode is set to Manual.

Importing, copying, combining, and moving rubrics

Inside an analysis you can keep several rubric clipboards in parallel, shown as lettered tabs (A, B, C, …). The tools below all live in the analysis, next to the clipboard tabs.

• Import rubrics from another analysis: click Import (next to the + that adds a clipboard), pick the other analysis, choose the sheet, and confirm with Import selected. The rubrics are added to your current clipboard; the source analysis is not changed.
• Copy a whole clipboard to another clipboard in the same analysis: click Import, choose Current analysis, select the source clipboard(s), then Copy to the target clipboard.
• Combine rubrics into one: use Merge Rubrics, choose Combining (keeps every remedy from any selected rubric, a union) or Crossing (keeps only remedies present in every selected rubric, an intersection), select two or more rubrics, and confirm. Use Unmerge to split a combined rubric again.
• Move rubrics between clipboards: drag a rubric onto the destination clipboard's letter tab. This moves it, so it leaves the original clipboard.

Merging rubrics

Several rubrics that describe the same symptom can be merged into one line. Click Merge Rubrics and choose how to merge, because the choice changes the result:

• Combining — the union: all remedies from any of the selected rubrics.
• Crossing — the intersection: only the remedies present in every selected rubric.

Then tick two or more rubrics and click Confirm. The info icon next to each mode explains it in place. A merged rubric shows which mode produced it when you hover it, and you can give it a custom name with Rename merged rubric. Unmerge splits it back apart.

Merging is taken into account when remedies are scored, so a merged rubric does not double-count the remedies that appear in more than one of its members.

Following a single remedy across the grid

Click a remedy's column header to highlight that remedy's column. The rubrics that contribute to it are highlighted at the same time, so you can read in both directions: which rubrics support this remedy, and which remedies this rubric carries.

Managing clipboards

Alongside adding, importing and moving rubrics between clipboards, you can:

• Rename a clipboard, so the tabs say something more useful than A, B, C: switch on Multi Clipboard, select more than one clipboard, and the rename option appears.
• Move a clipboard to another slot to reorder the tabs.
• Combine sheets into one, from the Import dialog.
• Clear a clipboard — Similia confirms with "Are you sure you want to delete all selected rubrics?" before emptying it.

Free supports up to four clipboards in an analysis; Pro supports up to ten. On Free, trying to add a fifth opens the upgrade prompt.

Multi Clipboard mode scores several clipboards together in one view. While it is on, the analysis is read-only: as the app puts it, "Multi-clipboard analysis is read-only. Keep one clipboard selected to edit."

Rubric operations can be undone and redone with the Undo and Redo buttons (curved arrows) above the rubric list. This covers adding, removing, moving, duplicating, merging and unmerging rubrics, and moving or combining clipboards. A grade change on a repertory rubric is not undone this way: set the grade back with Grade.

Understanding the numbers, grades, and colours

Under each remedy in the analysis grid you see two numbers, for example 27/11:

• The first number is the remedy's total score: the sum of its grades across all the selected rubrics, weighted by any rubric grade you set.
• The second number is how many of the selected rubrics that remedy appears in.

So 27/11 means a total score of 27 across 11 rubrics. When the grid is sorted by Balanced, Small remedies or Small rubrics, that ranking's score is shown in bold above these two numbers.

Remedy grades (degrees) run from 1 to 4 and show how strongly a remedy is indicated in a rubric, with 4 the strongest. By default grade 2 is blue, grade 3 is red, and grade 4 is purple, while grade 1 uses the standard text colour. In the rubric list the grade colours the remedy name; in the flat grid it colours the cell background. Grade colours can be changed in Settings > Grade colors, and Settings > Grid display has a "Show Grade Number" option to show the grade number inside each cell.

Sorting remedies (ranking methods)

To choose how remedies are ranked, click the ranking button in the Analysis toolbar. Its tooltip names the ranking in use and its icon changes with it; on extra-wide screens the name is also written on the button. On a phone it is the first icon beside the case name. It is not the Sort button above the rubric list, which only orders the rubrics. Each option has an info icon ("How this analysis works") that explains it. Sorting only re-orders the remedies: it never hides any.

• Balanced: a general-purpose ranking that combines symptom strength, breadth of coverage, a small lift for highly specific rubrics and a small lift for less-common remedies.
• Sum of Degrees: ranks remedies by the total of their degrees across the selected rubrics; remedies present in more rubrics break ties.
• Number of Rubrics: ranks remedies by how many of the selected rubrics they appear in, regardless of strength.
• Small remedies: boosts remedies that appear in fewer rubrics across the whole repertory, so they are not drowned out by polychrests.
• Small rubrics: boosts remedies that appear in highly specific (small) rubrics.

Free includes Sum of Degrees and Number of Rubrics. Every Pro plan, including Pro Base and Lifetime Pro, unlocks all five; no premium repertory is needed for them. Multi-view (Pro, on larger screens) shows the Balanced, Small remedies and Small rubrics rankings side by side.

Other analysis tools that need Pro (any Pro plan) are the Taxonomy filter, Families, the Miasm panel, Compare (remedy comparison from the grid), the rubric Filters in the repertory explorer, and more than four clipboards. On Free they open the upgrade prompt.

Making the analysis grid more compact

If too many remedies or rubrics are off-screen, switch to a more compact grid layout from your avatar in the top-right corner > Settings > Grid display. From there you can set "Grid Density" to Compact, choose a smaller "Rubric Font Size", turn on "Truncate Rubric Name", and set "Header Orientation" to Vertical. This fits more remedies on screen without changing the underlying analysis.

Grid display templates

Grid display opens with a Template picker, so you do not have to click through every option one by one:

• Standard restores the defaults.
• Compact packs more remedies on screen, with square cells, vertical headers and a smaller rubric font.
• Save current settings as template… keeps any combination under a name of your choice (for example "Dense teaching grid"). Saved templates are applied again in one click, and Manage templates… renames or deletes them.

The picker reads Custom whenever the current options match no template. Templates are available on Free and Pro.

Opening the repertory by sections

To browse the repertory chapter by chapter (by body system or section; "repertorio per apparati" in Italian), open Repertory in the top navigation. Before you run a search, it lists the chapters under Browse by chapter: pick a chapter such as Mind, Head or Generalities and expand its branches. Inside a chapter, Sections takes you back to the list of chapters.

AI tools inside an analysis

Similia has a few distinct AI surfaces, and they are not the same feature. Two of them work on a case analysis rather than in the standalone Repertory section (AI Case Analysis can also be launched from the home dashboard, which creates the case for you):

• The smaller, per-action AI helpers that turn the content you've just written or photographed into rubric suggestions: Notes to Rubrics (the "Notes to Rubrics" button in the Notes panel) and Photos to Rubrics (the "Analyze Photo" button). Next to them, "Upload Notes" turns photos or PDFs of handwritten notes into text in your notes, and "Upload Recording" transcribes a consultation recording into your notes; neither suggests rubrics by itself.
• AI Case Analysis, a separate, comprehensive pipeline that analyzes the whole case end to end and proposes ranked candidate remedies. AI Case Analysis is described in its own section below.

Separately, Similia AI (AI Chat) is a conversational assistant available anywhere in the app, not only inside an analysis. It is covered in its own article, "Using AI: Similia AI (AI Chat)".

The first time you use one of these AI tools, Similia shows an AI consent modal. You need to accept it once before the AI tools can process notes, images, or audio. Consent can be reviewed and updated later in Settings > Privacy & consent.

Notes to Rubrics, Photos to Rubrics, Upload Notes, Upload Recording, AI Analysis, Live Audio and Similia AI (AI Chat) are part of the Pro plan and use AI credits, so they need a positive AI credit balance. Semantic search in the seven classical repertories is not one of them: it is included on Free.

If the AI buttons are missing (Work mode)

Settings > Work mode decides how you find rubrics. AI-assisted is the default. Manual hides the AI features that find rubrics and remedies for you: semantic search in the repertory and materia medica, Notes to Rubrics, AI Analysis (in the case and on the home dashboard), Analyze Photo, MM Rubrics and AI Chat. Upload Notes and Upload Recording stay available, and Live Audio still transcribes, without the AI analysis. To bring the hidden tools back, choose AI-assisted. Your plan, AI credits, cases, notes and saved analyses stay exactly as they are.

Notes to Rubrics

Notes to Rubrics is an AI helper available from the Notes section of an analysis. It reads your case notes and proposes rubrics that match the symptoms it finds, which you can then accept into the analysis. It works on all of the notes or on a highlighted selection (the button then reads "Notes to Rubrics (Selection)"), and it is not a full case analysis: it only proposes rubrics from the notes you give it.

Notes to Rubrics offers two modes from the same button:

• Standard mode: faster, lower credit cost, good for routine cases.
• Advanced mode: deeper reasoning over the same notes, higher credit cost, useful for complex or atypical cases.

Photos to Rubrics works the same way, but reads a photo of a physical symptom instead of text.

AI Case Analysis

AI Case Analysis (shown in the app as "AI Analysis", labelled Beta) is a separate, larger feature than Notes to Rubrics. It runs an end-to-end pipeline on the whole case from your case notes, and returns a structured case synthesis, ranked candidate remedies with their evidence, and a set of suggested rubrics added to your clipboard. The Notes to Rubrics helper still only proposes rubrics; AI Analysis is what produces the comprehensive remedy suggestions.

AI Analysis is a Pro feature and additionally requires access to at least one premium repertory (Murphy, Complete, Saine 25, Suggesta, Meditative, or Griffith). It is not available on the classic-only Pro Base plan without a premium add-on. Lifetime Pro does not include a premium repertory either: a Lifetime Pro holder needs a Lifetime Pro add-on that is a repertory (Murphy MetaRepertory, Complete Repertory, Saine Repertory or Suggesta 2.1). See "Lifetime Pro: Pay Once for Similia Pro".

Without a premium repertory, the AI Analysis button still opens its window, but the Simple tab reads "No presets available with your current subscription. Use Advanced mode to pick sources manually." and every repertory on the Advanced tab is locked ("Subscribe to use this repertory"), so the analysis cannot start. Presets cover Murphy, Complete, Saine and Suggesta; with Meditative or Griffith, choose the repertory on the Advanced tab.

Where to start AI Analysis

You can start AI Analysis in two places:

• From the home dashboard: click AI Analysis, then type or paste your case notes. Title and Main complaint are both optional: add them to name the case, or leave them blank to run it as a quick repertorization. Similia creates the case and analysis for you and runs the analysis.
• From inside a case: open an analysis, add your case notes in its Notes panel, and click AI Analysis. The clipboard must be empty to start (see below).

Either way you need case notes of at least 500 characters. If neither AI Analysis button is visible, check that Settings > Work mode is set to AI-assisted.

Why is Continue greyed out?

In the dashboard launcher, Continue only becomes active once your case notes reach 500 characters. The counter under the notes box shows how many characters you have so far. Title and Main complaint are optional and never affect Continue, so a greyed-out Continue always means the notes are still too short — not that a title or complaint is missing.

Choosing sources

After you start, choose your sources in the configuration modal:

• Simple tab: pick a ready-made preset (a repertory plus a curated Materia Medica set). Only presets your account has access to are shown.
• Advanced tab: pick the repertory and Materia Medica sources by hand — one repertory and at least one Materia Medica source.
• "Auto-merge rubrics from the same symptom" (on by default) groups several candidate rubrics for one symptom into one merged rubric on the clipboard. You can still unmerge or rename the group later.

Running it

Click Run Analysis. A progress modal shows the pipeline phases; a run usually takes about 3 to 5 minutes, depending on the length of your notes and the books selected. If the connection to the page drops, the analysis keeps running and appears when it finishes, so there is no need to start it again. Starting a second AI Analysis on a case while one is still running asks you to confirm first, because both runs are charged. Running AI Analysis again on an analysis that already has results asks you to confirm before overwriting them.

Empty clipboard requirement

When you start AI Analysis from inside a case, the clipboard must be empty. If the selected clipboard already contains rubrics, Similia shows "Clipboard must be empty" and asks you to clear it or switch to an empty clipboard first. Starting from the dashboard uses a fresh case, so this does not apply.

What AI Case Analysis returns

• Case synthesis: a structured summary of the case, including aetiology, mental core, physical generals, active miasm, and timeline.
• Differential notes ("How to differentiate") that explain what makes the case distinctive.
• Candidate remedies, each with a confidence percentage, a reasoning paragraph, repertory evidence, Materia Medica evidence, and points to verify.
• Materia Medica extractions for each top candidate: essence, keynotes, excerpts, modalities, and differential notes, with direct links ("Open in Materia Medica") into the corresponding Materia Medica pages in Similia.

The analysis output — case synthesis, differential notes, and remedy reasoning — is returned in your current app language.

AI Case Analysis consumes AI credits per run. The configuration modal shows a typical cost and your available credits before you start, and the credits used are shown on the result panel after the analysis completes.

Finding a saved AI Case Analysis again

Your AI Case Analysis is saved on the specific analysis it was run on. To read it again later, open the same case and the same analysis (repertorization), and look in its Notes panel: the results reappear automatically in a collapsible "AI Analysis" section below the notes. On the case page, the same result also appears below the notes when that analysis is selected. If you cannot see it, check that you are on the same analysis it was run on, and that the Notes panel is showing rather than the Photo Analysis or Materia Medica panel. Running AI Case Analysis again on that analysis replaces the saved result.

Limitations and clinical responsibility

AI Case Analysis is a decision-support tool, not a prescription. Always review the suggested remedies and supporting evidence in light of your own case-taking and clinical judgment before prescribing.

Live Audio Mode (Beta)

Live Audio Mode lets you record a consultation in real time while Similia's AI:

• transcribes the conversation
• extracts Strange, Rare & Peculiar symptoms
• auto-adds the best matching rubrics to your repertorization in the repertory you select
• surfaces relevant remedies in a side Materia Medica panel as the case unfolds, so you can read remedy material without leaving the live session

Automatic rubrics need a premium repertory: Murphy, Complete, Saine 25, Suggesta, Meditative or Griffith. Without one, no repertory can be chosen in the Live Audio Settings and no rubrics are added; Transcribe only still works.

How it works

1. Open an analysis inside a case.
2. Click Live Audio.
3. In the Live Audio Settings, choose the language, the session mode and your sources (a preset on the Simple tab, or the repertory and Materia Medica books on the Advanced tab), then click Confirm.
4. Click Start Recording and choose whether the consultation is in person or online.
5. As SRP symptoms are detected, matching rubrics are added automatically and remedies update.

Switching rubrics

After a rubric is added, click the switch icon next to it to replace it with one of the top alternative rubrics suggested by the AI.

Session modes

In the Live Audio Settings, Session mode decides how much AI runs while you record:

• Transcribe only: a live transcript and a summary when the session ends. No symptom detection, rubric search, materia medica or case analysis runs during the session, so a session costs little more than the transcription minutes. The rubrics, materia medica and analysis panes step aside and the layout is the transcript beside your notes.
• Transcribe + AI analysis: the live transcript plus symptom detection, automatic rubrics, materia medica findings and a running case analysis — the behaviour described above.

The mode is locked while a recording runs: stop the recording to change it. When Settings > Work mode is set to Manual, only Transcribe only is offered; choose AI-assisted to get Transcribe + AI analysis back.

Reading the transcript and taking notes during the session

• Transcript: a Transcript toggle in the session header (Show transcript / Hide transcript) opens a resizable column that groups the text by speaker and follows the newest line as it arrives, with a Copy button. On a phone it is a tab.
• Notes: a Notes toggle in the session header (Show notes / Hide notes), or the section toolbar's Notes button, opens the case notes beside the rubrics, materia medica findings and case analysis, with the same editor, formatting bar, templates and autosave as the Notes panel. What you write during the consultation is already in the analysis when the recording stops. On a phone the notes are a fourth tab.

Each column stays open or closed the way you left it. The credit counter in the session header follows the rate the session is billed at.

Recording modes

• In person: records only your microphone, for face-to-face consultations.
• Online: records both your microphone and the call audio. If the call runs in a browser tab (Google Meet, Zoom web, Teams web), share that tab with "Share with tab audio" turned on. If it runs in a desktop app (Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Skype, FaceTime), share the Entire screen, not the app window, with "Share with system audio" turned on. Call audio capture needs Chrome or Edge on a computer. Sharing a desktop app's audio also needs Chrome or Edge on Windows, or Chrome 141 or newer on macOS 14.2 or newer; otherwise join the call from a browser tab instead. In other browsers, and on phones and tablets, only the microphone is recorded. Step-by-step instructions are in "Using AI: live audio mode (Beta)".

Session length

A live session can run for up to 3 hours. After about 5 minutes of continuous silence the recording stops automatically ("Recording stopped due to 5 minutes of silence."), with a warning 15 seconds before, so a session left open does not keep consuming time. The transcript and summary are saved as when you stop it yourself.

If the transcription service is busy

If the live transcription service is temporarily unavailable, Similia waits before retrying. Brief interruptions recover on their own during a session. If the service needs a longer wait, recording stops and the captured transcript is saved with the message "Live transcription is temporarily unavailable. The session has stopped and its transcript is being saved." Review what was captured before starting another session.

Privacy note

The audio recording is not saved. Only the full transcript and a summary of case notes are saved to the notes of the analysis.

Live Audio Mode is in beta. Always review AI suggestions and make clinical decisions based on your professional judgment.

Miasm Analysis

Miasm Analysis is available inside the repertorization view: click Miasm in the Analysis toolbar (a DNA icon with the tooltip "Miasm Analysis"; the word "Miasm" shows only on extra-wide screens). It is a Pro feature. It evaluates the miasmatic tendency of a case based on the top 10 remedies in the repertorization.

The current miasm model uses five miasms:

• Psora
• Sycotic
• Syphilitic
• Tubercular
• Cancer

Each remedy can have miasm affinity grades from 0 to 3. Stronger grades and higher-ranked remedies influence the final result more. The panel also shows top contributing remedies for each miasm.

The miasm affinity grades are cross-referenced from Kent, Murphy, Complete, and Saine repertory rubrics and combined with literature from Hahnemann, Allen, Banerjea, Sankaran, and Foubister.

Kingdom and family filters

You can filter the analysis results by remedy kingdom and remedy family to narrow the remedy list, for example to show only animal, plant or mineral remedies. The taxonomy filter is a Pro feature; on Free the button opens the upgrade prompt.

1. In the Analysis view, click Taxonomy (a filter icon with the tooltip "Filter by taxonomy"; the word "Taxonomy" shows only on extra-wide screens). On a phone it is the filter icon next to the ranking icon.
2. In the "Filter by taxonomy" dialog, choose the Standard or Scholten tab.
3. Tick the kingdom you want and/or specific groups or families. The "Search taxonomy" box helps you find one.
4. Click Apply. A count on the button shows how many filters are active.
5. To reset, open the dialog again and click Clear ("Clear all" appears when both tabs have selections).

In the Repertory section, the same dialog opens from the layers-icon button "Filter by kingdom/family"; on narrow screens it is in the toolbar's Settings menu.

Reasoning by family (Families)

Families (Pro) adds family reasoning to the Analysis grid as a working hypothesis; the remedy ranking stays unchanged unless you turn on the family-adjusted ranking. On a computer it is a split button in the Analysis toolbar (the word "Families" shows on extra-wide screens; otherwise it is an icon with the tooltip "Show the grid by family"). On a phone it is an icon next to the ranking and filter icons.

• Click Families to show one column per taxonomy family. A family's grade in a rubric is the highest grade among its members, and its header shows how many members are on the sheet and how many are documented. Click a family header to show or collapse its member columns.
• The small arrow beside it, "Family reasoning options", opens the settings: Taxonomy (Standard or Scholten), Family level ("Broad group", the default, treats spiders or snakes as one family; "Taxonomic family" keeps Lycosidae apart from Theridiidae), Family hints on rubrics, and under Advanced the "Majority threshold" (50, 60 or 70 %), "Minimum members present" and how many rubrics a member needs to count as documented.
• Family hints on rubrics marks rubrics that hold a majority of a family's documented members with a teal hint such as "Arachnids - Spiders 3/4 (75 %)". Click it to see "Present" and "Documented but absent".
• Family-adjusted ranking (off by default) sorts remedies by sum of degrees plus a family bonus, weighted by "Weight of the family bonus (λ)" (0.25, 0.5 or 1). While it is on, the ranking button names the ranking "Family-adjusted", and each remedy header shows its adjusted total in bold and a small "+N" line (teal when there is a bonus; its tooltip reads "family +N (hypothesis)"). Click "+N" to see the rubrics behind the bonus. The remedy is not in those rubrics: the bonus only says its family is. Turn it off, or choose another ranking, to return to your usual ranking.

While the family view is on, Export, Multi-view and column highlighting are unavailable, and remedies with no family in the selected taxonomy are hidden (the options panel says how many). Family hints, family totals and the family-adjusted ranking are unavailable while an author filter is active. Your family settings are remembered in your browser.

Remedy, taxonomy, and author filters

Expanded rubric trees are available for supported repertories. Remedy filtering and taxonomy filtering can narrow visible rubrics and remedies by selected remedy, kingdom, or family.

Complete, Saine, and Suggesta repertories include source/author filtering. Presets are available for common author groups, and the interface preserves intentional filter choices when switching clipboards or repertories.

Grade filter and grade 0 rows

You can filter rubrics by remedy grade to focus on remedies of a specific intensity. Rubric filters are a Pro feature; on Free the button opens the upgrade prompt.

1. In the repertory explorer, click Filters (the sliders icon).
2. Under "Remedy Grade", select a minimum and/or maximum grade from 1 to 4. "Number of Remedies" in the same dialog limits rubrics by how many remedies they contain.
3. Click Apply Filters. Rubrics with no remedies in your selected grade range will be hidden. Clear All resets the filters.

A rubric you grade 0 in an analysis appears faded in the grid, which sets it apart from the active graded rows.

Elimination Mode

Elimination mode helps narrow down remedies by selecting rubrics that must be present.

1. In the Analysis view, click Elimination ("Elim" on small screens).
2. Select rubrics using the checkboxes that appear.
3. Click Confirm to filter the grid to only remedies present in those rubrics.
4. To remove the elimination filter, click Elimination again, then Clear.

Working offline

In the installed Similia app with offline mode turned on (Beta; part of a paid Pro plan, not the free trial, and never in a browser tab), cases and analyses keep opening without a connection, keyword search keeps working in the downloaded repertories, and your changes sync when the connection returns. AI features, including AI Analysis and Live Audio, and semantic search wait for the connection. See "Using Similia Offline (Beta)".

Periodic table

The periodic table is not part of the analysis: it is a separate Pro tool under Tools > Scholten Tables, together with the Plants Table. It is covered in "Interactive Periodic Table of Elements (Remedy Families)".
