Lex by ALMA

Lex is legal research in Portuguese and European Union law, from the official sources. Ask a question in plain words: Lex searches the legislation and the case law, answers citing every source, and checks every quote against the official text. ANSWERS THAT CITE AND CHECK Every statement carries the number of the source it comes from, linked to the official text. Quotations are checked word for word against the stored text; one that doesn't match is flagged and never shown as a citation. Every answer says it was generated by artificial intelligence. DEEP RESEARCH For questions that need more, deep research reads more sources and thinks the answer through for longer. THE CODES, ARTICLE BY ARTICLE Read the codes and other legislation in their consolidated text, with each article's history: since when its current wording is in force, the acts that amended it, and the earlier wordings Lex has kept, compared word by word. Each article shows the decisions that cite it, and each code the bills before the Portuguese Parliament that would amend it. NEWS New and amended legislation and new decisions, day by day. Follow what matters to you and get a notification when something new arrives. YOUR RESEARCH Organise your work in topics, highlight and annotate passages, keep your sources, and copy citations in NP 405, APA or Chicago style. Share topics with other people who use Lex. OFFICIAL SOURCES The Diário da República, the DGSI case law databases, the Constitutional Court, the Assembleia da República and EUR-Lex, among others. Every document links to its source, and you can ask Lex to add a document from its official link. ON YOUR DEVICES On iPhone, iPad and Mac. Sign in with a passkey (Face ID or Touch ID). The app speaks Portuguese, English, Spanish, Catalan, French, German, Italian, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish and Finnish; the law it covers is Portuguese and European Union law. PLANS Lex is free to download. A new account gets a few welcome answers once, to try research on its own questions and open the sources those answers cite. Search, the codes and their articles, case law, news and your annotations come with a subscription. There are three monthly subscriptions: Lex Estudante (suggested for students; anyone may choose it), Lex and Lex Pro, each with a number of answers a month. Answer packs add answers that never expire. With the Lex and Lex Pro subscriptions you can also connect an AI service of your own, with your own key; the questions you send it then go to that service, and Lex tells you where before you save it. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period, and are charged to your Apple Account; manage or cancel them in your Apple Account settings. Lex gives legal information, not legal advice on your specific case. Answers are generated by artificial intelligence and can contain mistakes: always check the cited sources.
