Our take
Pandektes is a fast-growing legaltech tackling one of the biggest challenges in the legal world - fragmented and hard-to-access data. Traditionally, lawyers and public institutions have had to search across multiple databases and jurisdictions to find relevant rulings or legislations. Pandektes is changing that, bringing everything together in one AI-driven platform built specifically for the legal industry.
Its platform consolidates millions of trusted legal sources (think EU legislations and public case law), all verified and updated daily. And using advanced AI, Pandektes not only finds the right sources but also understands legal hierarchies and reasoning, helping professionals ask complex legal questions and get relevant answers in seconds. Its a novel idea and one that has the company working with more than 150 organisations, including top law firms and major enterprises.
And its success is only growing, with the closure of a successful funding round in 2025. With this funding, the company is broadening its database across all EU jurisdictions and building the largest legal database in Europe. This is a huge step for the company and one that sets it on the right track to transform how legal professionals across the continent access and interpret the law.
