Powerful, intuitive legal research tools for EU lawyers

LawLibrary.AI is an AI-native platform for EU legal research that recommends legal authorities that speak to your legal questions, analyzes how they connect to each other, and annotates them with highlights, tags, and notes tailored to your task. It's like EUR-Lex, but more intuitive.

The citation network

EU law, visualized.

This visualization shows every judgment, order, directive, regulation, decision, and treaty that's ever been cited in a CJEU judgment. Each dot is a document, and documents that cite each other are pulled closer together. The blue dots are the most cited documents.

The 400 most-cited documentsCase lawLegislation and treaties

Every document-to-document citation in the corpus. Position comes from the citations alone — nothing about the subject, the date or the court goes into it.

What it does

Built for lawyers who work with EU law.

Research, reading and analysis in one place, over a corpus that is more complete than the official sources and updated every day.

Answers with citations

Ask in plain language. Every claim in the answer carries a citation, and every citation opens the paragraph it was drawn from.

The whole corpus

Judgments, AG opinions, orders, treaties, directives, regulations and decisions — searchable and readable without an account.

Document lookup

Describe a document by name or number — Article 157 TFEU, C-405/20, Google Spain — and find it easily. No search syntax, no filters.

Citation maps

See how the sources behind an answer connect to each other, which ones the case law is built on, and where a line of authority begins.

Case analysis

Extract the facts, the procedural timeline, the chain of reasoning and a legal commentary for any judgment, on demand.

AI annotations

Highlight the paragraphs carrying the holding, surface the proposition each one states, and tag the text by content, actor and topic.

Propositions

Start from the rule rather than the case. Browse the legal propositions stated across EU case law, classified across 25 areas of law.

Consolidated legislation

Read any act as it stood on a given date, with a redline against the previous version and every amendment traced to the act that made it.

Why we built it

Our purpose

LawLibrary.AI was founded by researchers with extensive experience in studying EU law and courts. A key motivation for us in starting the company was to see our research generate impact beyond academic papers — to make life easier for people who work with EU law, both in research and practice.

We're inspired by the opportunity to increase access to justice by offering free subscriptions to our research platform for students and public interest NGOs.

Our approach to the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in legal research is guided by principles of transparency and accuracy. Our approach to data management centers on security and privacy protection.
