Verification at the speed of social media

The challenge five years ago was real-time discovery. Today the explosion of misinformation and disinformation clutters social media with noise, paralyzing decision-making and wasting critical resources.

Factal is the only company that combines lightning-fast discovery with trusted verification in a single platform, outpacing other news sources. Instead of struggling to keep up, your team stays a step ahead.

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

Even if you're working from home, Factal takes just a few minutes to get started. Designed like a modern consumer news experience, Factal's site and mobile app make it easy to see the world's breaking news events and customize what's important to your company.

You can configure just the alerts that matter to you, on any screen, wherever you are. By rising above the noise, you get more done.

Wherever you are, you're connected with the Factal community

When you log into Factal, you're not alone. Together with our on-duty editors, you're connecting with the largest real-time community of security and disaster response professionals in the world.

In a secure chat, Factal members ask questions, share resources and exchange benchmarking information. By collaborating under a shared mission, we are safer together.

A new level of mapping precision

Breaking news events are geolocated with unprecedented speed and precision. In an instant, you’ll know if a high-risk incident is developing in close proximity to global offices, stores, supply lines or company events — even down to the meter.

Factal makes maps more actionable than ever, both on Factal's platform and a roster of partners like Esri, Emergent Risk and Everbridge.

The Factal journalism advantage

Verification is much more than blue check marks and rewritten Tweets. Factal’s experienced editors weigh multiple sources, pointing out inconsistencies and prioritizing important details – fast.

Written in ready-to-distribute AP style, Factal’s alerts provide clear sourcing, vital context and, when necessary, immediate corrections. Other services don't acknowledge errors, putting you at risk.
