Case law, searched by meaning.
We use AI to find sources, not generate them. Presedens retrieves the decisions most relevant to your question — at paragraph level, each one linked to the authoritative source.

Presedens does not write answers.
It finds sources.
Legal research happens under pressure, and there is no room for mistakes. Generative tools produce text — and occasionally produce citations that do not exist. Presedens builds a representation of the meaning of your question and retrieves matching paragraphs from real legal sources. Every result is a document you can open and verify.
» Kan oppdragsgiver avlyse en konkurranse uten saklig grunn?
“Nei — dette følger av KOFA-2021-0847, hvor klagenemnda la til grunn at…”
Response time: 30–80 s
✕The cited decision does not exist — and even when a source is real, it is buried in analysis you never asked for.
» Kan oppdragsgiver avlyse en konkurranse uten saklig grunn?
Relevant paragraphs from KOFA 2010/7, KOFA 2010/303, FOA § 25-4, C-440/13 — each opening to the authoritative text, with the matching paragraphs highlighted.

Search by meaning
Ask in plain legal language. Presedens finds decisions that answer your question even when they use entirely different wording — no boolean syntax, no guessing the tribunal’s vocabulary.
Paragraph-level results
Hits point to the specific paragraph in a decision, not just the document. You land on the reasoning that matters, not page one of forty.
Relevance highlighting
Opened decisions and law texts shade the paragraphs that matched your question, so you see immediately why a hit is relevant.
Legal filters
Narrow by decision type, outcome, section of the decision, date and parties — with live counts, the way you expect from professional legal databases.
Projects
Save decisions and paragraphs as you research, grouped by the question that found them. Your research trail is reconstructible — for colleagues, and for the file.
Exactly which sources, stated plainly.
What is live now — and what is still coming.
