Factum review
A broad European legal research workspace with cited answers and document analysis.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Factum is an AI legal platform for lawyers, law firms, institutions, companies, and individuals working with European legal materials. It consolidates legislation, regulations, and case law, supports smart case search, and returns answers with article-level citations and source references. Its document workspace covers generation, explanation, revision, formatting, and analysis across PDF, Word, Excel, scanned, and image files. The product is particularly suited to teams whose work centers on European jurisdictions and document-heavy legal research.
The platform’s scope extends beyond search. Live web research can focus on selected official sites, while parallel table review can examine document collections with cited cells. Microsoft Word support adds document access within Word, and the MCP server connects Factum with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, and custom agents. Connectors for Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, Outlook Mail, and Outlook Calendar broaden its fit for firms managing research alongside business records and communications.
Factum has a paid model with a 14-day free trial and no free plan. Basic includes current legislation, document generation and editing, attached-document work, platform presentation, and basic email support with responses up to 48 hours. Standard costs €980 per year and adds usage training, advanced-logic document generation, document analysis uploads, faster support with responses up to 24 hours, and the most powerful AI model. Enterprise adds multi-user licenses, advanced options, and customized SLAs. Choose Factum for European legal research, cited answers, and integrated document workflows; consider an alternative when broader geographic coverage is the priority.
