To streamline this process, we evaluate Large Language Models (LLMs) for enhancing efficiency and accuracy in corpus filtration while minimizing manual effort. Our open-source tool LLMSurver presents a visual interface to utilize LLMs for literature filtration, evaluate the results, and refine queries in an interactive way. We assess the real-world performance of our approach in filtering over 8.3k articles during a recent survey construction, comparing results with human efforts. The findings show that recent LLM models can reduce filtering time from weeks to minutes. A consensus scheme ensures recall rates >98.8%, surpassing typical human error thresholds and improving selection accuracy. This work advances literature review methodologies and highlights the potential of responsible human-AI collaboration in academic research.Attribution 4.0 International LicenseCCS Concepts: Human-centered computing → Interactive systems and tools; Computing methodologies → Artificial intelligence; Applied computing → PublishingHuman centered computing → Interactive systems and toolsComputing methodologies → Artificial intelligenceApplied computing → PublishingCutting Through the Clutter: The Potential of LLMs for Efficient Filtration in Systematic Literature Reviews10.2312/eurova.202511056 pages
