How Factal accelerates your response (and reduces your stress level)


Before Factal, you had a choice. You could act instantly on unverified information and risk being wrong, or wait for credible reporting. The wait has grown longer, entangled with misinformation, contradictions and overwhelming noise.

Now that wait is over. Factal bridges the speed-accuracy gap through a hybrid of AI technology and our global team of experienced journalists. Drawing from an enormous pool of open data, Factal detects, verifies and prioritizes critical details – fast.

You see a clear operational picture of how your organization is impacted, and verified alerts are routed straight to the people who need to know. Even in the most demanding situations, you’re able to make the right decisions and respond faster than ever before.

How Factal helps your team be more productive


You don’t need more data. You need better data and smarter technology to keep up with the accelerating pace and uncertainty of global events.

A small security team at a major US airline switched to Factal as they struggled to keep up with noisy "unvetted data-mining platforms." Now the airline relies on Factal’s verification and customization to make sense of COVID-19 and other events in real time.

"Our organization’s current process has been greatly simplified," the airline explained. "Our decision to utilize Factal has truly tipped the scales to a more security-driven and proactive approach to global events."
