Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Preceda

How is Preceda different from traditional legal databases?

Preceda uses semantic search, which understands the meaning behind your query rather than just matching keywords. This means you can search using natural language descriptions and find relevant cases even when they use different terminology.

Which courts are covered?

Preceda covers Canadian federal courts (Supreme Court, Federal Court, etc.). We're continuously expanding our coverage.

How up-to-date is the database?

We regularly update our database with new judgements as they become available from official sources. The frequency depends on each court's publication schedule.

Is my search history private?

Yes. We take privacy seriously. Your search queries and results are private to your account and are not shared with third parties.

Can I search in French?

Absolutely! Preceda fully supports bilingual search in both English and French, making it ideal for Quebec's bijural legal system.

What's the difference between free and Pro?

The free tier includes a limited number of searches per day. Pro offers unlimited searches and access to advanced features.
