Content types explained

LexLens groups everything it collects into content types. Here's what each one means and who can access it.

Content type What it is Available on
News Headlines and breaking coverage from legal and general press Free
Blogposts Commentary and analysis from law firms and legal blogs Free
Social Relevant posts from legal commentators and institutions Free
Videos Recent uploads from EU institutions Free
Case Law Court judgments, orders, AG opinions and press releases Pro
Regulatory Authority guidance, decisions and consultations Pro
Legislation Acts, decrees and legislative developments Pro
Competition Antitrust, merger, DMA and FSR matters Pro
Papers Academic and practitioner journal articles Pro
Procurement Public procurement notices and developments Pro

Free accounts see News, Blogposts, Social and Videos. Pro and Enterprise unlock the rest. In the filter bar, content types you don't have access to show a padlock and link to the upgrade page.

Note: Procurement items appear in your Daily Lens and in "All", and open fully like any other article, but there isn't a dedicated Procurement tab in the main filter list.

Areas of law vs. content types

These are two different dimensions:

  • Content type = the kind of item (a judgment, a news story, a paper…).
  • Area of law = the subject (Tax, Employment, Competition…).

You can combine them — e.g. Case Law in Competition and Antitrust Law for the EU.
