Faktum™ = Better strategies. More favorable outcomes.

Capabilities describe Faktum™ litigation workflows. Outputs are cited to source material and reviewed by an attorney before they are used in a matter. Outcomes depend on the facts, the law, and the judgment of counsel.

What is Faktum™?

Faktum is litigation strategy software for attorneys. It gives a real-time, 360-degree view of case strategy and posture — facts, law, filings, briefs, docket entries, witnesses, transcripts, discovery, claims, defenses, risks, leverage, and next moves — so counsel can build, test, and execute strategy grounded in the facts and law that matter. It includes full e-discovery and paper discovery tooling, so the record the strategy is built on lives in the same platform.

Which courts and practice areas is Faktum built for?

Faktum is built for litigators in state and federal court. It is in use across commercial, real estate, family law, bankruptcy, criminal defense, intellectual property, and immigration litigation. It is not built for transactional practice, wills and trusts, or advisory work that never reaches a docket — the product assumes a matter with an opposing party, a record to develop, and a court in front of you.

Does Faktum account for my jurisdiction, local rules, and the assigned judge’s rules?

Yes. A matter is set up against the court it is actually in: state or federal, the governing rules of procedure, the local rules of that district or county, and the assigned judge’s standing orders and prior rulings. Deadlines, meet-and-confer obligations, page limits, and formatting follow from that, and a filing can be evaluated the way the judge in front of you is likely to read it based on how that judge has ruled on comparable issues.

What is Faktum built to produce?

Two things. A case strategy grounded in the facts and law that matter, and a meticulous discovery protocol that keeps developing the record until the facts that decide the case are on it. Often that pressure is what produces the settlement — an opposing party comes to a number when the record stops being arguable. Where it does not, the same work has already produced what a trial requires: exhibits, examination outlines, motions, and jury instructions drawn from the record you built.

Does Faktum include e-discovery and paper discovery tools?

Yes. Faktum natively supports both electronic and paper discovery: import, ingestion, and export of electronic discovery, files, and folders; document tagging; redaction; confidentiality and work-product classification with guardrails; metadata analysis; and version tracing. It identifies gaps in email threads, displays messenger and text message chats in their native form, and ingests social media, audio, and video archives. All of it feeds case analysis, case posture, and strategy recommendations rather than sitting in a separate review database.

Then is Faktum just another document review platform?

No. The discovery tooling is complete, but documents are an input rather than the product. Faktum is built around litigation strategy, case posture, and attorney judgment. Discovery work is done in service of the theory of the case: ingesting and classifying the record, drafting requests, analyzing responses, and assembling productions that match the strategy being argued. A review platform tells you what a document says; Faktum tells you what it does to your case.

Can Faktum replace our current e-discovery vendor?

In most matters, yes. Because ingestion, tagging, redaction, privilege and work-product classification, metadata analysis, version tracing, and production assembly all run inside the platform, the record does not have to be handed to an outside processor and handed back. That removes per-gigabyte processing costs and the delay and data loss that come with moving a record between systems.

How does Faktum analyze the opposing party’s strategy?

Faktum reads filings, briefs, discovery responses, deposition testimony, docket activity, omissions, contradictions, and emphasis patterns to surface what the other side is signaling, avoiding, conceding, or preparing to attack. It also reviews the opponent’s briefs against legal research to flag citations that do not exist, do not stand for the proposition claimed, or are no longer good law.

Can Faktum detect AI-generated or fabricated citations in an opponent’s filing?

Yes. Faktum checks each authority cited in an opposing filing against legal research to identify fabricated or AI-hallucinated citations, misquoted holdings, improperly cited cases, and propositions the cited authority does not support.

How does Faktum avoid hallucinated answers and fabricated citations in its own work?

Two mechanisms. First, answers are generated from your matter’s own vault rather than from open-ended model memory, and each one is tied back to the document it came from — where the record does not support a statement, Faktum does not make it. Second, every legal authority is checked against legal research before it reaches you: that the case exists, that it stands for what it is cited for, and that it is still good law. Every output is also reviewed and approved by an attorney before it is used in a matter.

Does Faktum replace an attorney’s legal judgment?

No. Faktum does not replace legal judgment; it compounds it. The platform supplies clearer facts, sharper risk assessment, stronger options, and better timing. Every output is reviewed and approved by an attorney before it is used in a matter, and judgment remains the lawyer’s advantage.

Which stages of litigation does Faktum support?

Faktum works from intake to trial: intake, case strategy blueprint, discovery strategy, discovery ingestion, fact finding and forensic truth search, deposition preparation, transcript analysis, opponent and citation analysis, judicial perspective review, motions and pleadings, production and exhibits, and hearing, trial, and jury instruction preparation.

How does Faktum protect privileged and confidential material?

Faktum is designed for privilege-aware litigation workflows. Confidentiality and work-product classification is applied at ingestion with guardrails, and the platform uses secure isolated environments, role-based permissions, and audit trails that record who approved what and when. Outputs are cited to source material and reviewed by an attorney before they leave the firm.

Which AI models does Faktum use, and where does my client’s file go?

Every matter is provisioned with its own private vaults — separate vaults for discovery, docket and filings, depositions and transcripts, and strategy — so nothing is pooled across cases, clients, or firms. Those vaults sit above a legal reasoning model built on Gemma that Faktum tunes and runs on infrastructure it controls, which handles most of the work without any part of the matter leaving the boundary. For the heaviest reasoning, Faktum calls state-of-the-art commercial models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Gemini, and Palantir AIP through their APIs — with client names, matter identifiers, and party details stripped before anything is sent, and no vendor given access to your vaults. Your matters are never used as training data.

Who is Faktum built for?

Faktum is built for litigators and litigation teams in state and federal court — solo attorneys, boutique litigation firms, and litigation departments — who want to handle more matters without losing command of strategy, facts, or quality of representation.
