summary for non-techies**
Microsoft's Purview eDiscovery tool is introducing a feature that allows users to generate "hit-by-term" reports using Keyword Query Language (KQL) for keyword searches within review sets, available in preview mode in December 2024 and generally by August 2025, enabling efficient data management and analysis for legal or compliance reviews.
