ReqLens: An Interactive Evidence-Grounded Multi-Agent System for Document-to-Requirements Generation

Manojit Chakraborty, Pranav Laddhad, Sagnik Ghosh


Abstract
Large language models can transform project documents into software requirements, but direct generation may introduce unsupported claims and hidden inconsistencies. We present ReqLens, an interactive multi-agent NLP system that extracts candidate requirements from mixed project documents, links them to source evidence, exposes graph-based dependencies and conflicts, and generates a Software Requirements Specification (SRS) through a human-in-the-loop workflow. We evaluate ReqLens on 13 projects using direct-generation and modular baselines, as well as component ablations. ReqLens achieves the strongest overall balance across unsupported-requirement rejection, valid-requirement retention, and seeded-defect filtering. A formative study with four domain experts provided qualitative feedback on the system’s interface and review workflow. ReqLens is accompanied by code, data, an installable package, and a narrated screencast.
