Dura Lex is an open-source operating system for legal data.
It structures public legal data — legislation, case law, company registries, administrative guidance — into a jurisdiction-agnostic corpus, queryable by AI agents via MCP and by humans via a web portal.
A jurisdiction-agnostic kernel, jurisdiction plugins (France and EU today, designed for any country), a robust ingestion pipeline, and services on top. The schema follows the OpenStreetMap model — six universal structural kinds, JSONB tags, zero schema migration to add a jurisdiction.
Everything is published as Python libraries (MIT). The kernel, the corpus protocol, the jurisdiction drivers, the ingestion framework — all are composable packages that can be embedded in any application. Use the MCP server as-is, or import the libraries directly to build your own legal data product.
Software licensed under MIT. Enriched data licensed under ODbL.

| France | Court decisions | 3.4M |
| Legislation articles | 1.8M | |
| Collective agreements | 299K articles + 382K enterprise agreements | |
| Administrative doctrine | 9.6K | |
| Companies | 24.2M | |
