Legal search engine and publisher widely regarded as one of the first French legaltechs, founded in 1998. Lexbase offers full access to more than 6 million French-language case law decisions, statutes, journals and practical documents, enhanced by artificial intelligence tools for faster, more relevant research. A pioneer in working with judicial authorities to digitize court decisions at scale, Lexbase was also the first French legaltech to launch a database in French-speaking Africa. The platform rests on two interdependent pillars, technology and legal publishing, with a database updated daily. Its LegalMetrics tool analyzes the entire body of case law through artificial intelligence and machine learning to deliver reliable litigation statistics. Lexbase has strengthened its offering by acquiring Doctrinal and Pluralisme, broadening its coverage of doctrinal sources. Lexbase is currently building the world's largest database of court decisions from civil-law (Romano-Germanic tradition) jurisdictions, integrating data from every country in that legal tradition.
