Social media discovery is no longer enough

The challenge five years ago was real-time discovery. Today the explosion of misinformation and disinformation in social media makes it difficult to know what's actually real. Once you discover a possible news event, you still need to invest the time and effort to verify it.

Factal is the first company to combine lightning-fast discovery with trusted verification into a single platform. By knowing the facts, you respond faster and smarter without stretching your resources.

Know what’s happening right now — precisely where it’s happening

Factal detects, verifies and publishes breaking events faster than any news organization. But that’s just the beginning.

Incidents are precisely geolocated and compared against your company’s global locations. In an instant, you’ll know if a high-risk incident is developing in close proximity to offices, stores, supply lines or company events — even down to the meter.

Finally, a real-time platform that makes your job easier

Traditional social media tools make you work harder to filter out false positives and figure out what matters.

Designed like a modern consumer news experience, Factal’s site and app make it easy to see the world’s events and customize what’s important for your company. By rising above the noise, you accelerate your response time and get more done.

Introducing a new era of collaboration

When you log into Factal, you're not alone. Together with our on-duty editors, you're connecting with a growing community of security professionals from the world's leading companies in real time.

That's because global incidents – like a severe weather event – impact more than one company at a time. By collaborating under a shared mission, we are safer together.

An ethical company you can trust

With concerns about data privacy, disinformation and civil liberties on the rise, Factal takes an open, transparent approach to providing our members with trustworthy, sustainable services.

Founded by award-winning journalists on a public service mission to protect people from harm around the world, Factal is a news organization grounded in a comprehensive code of ethics. From data privacy to newsroom practices, Factal works hard to gain your trust.
