Your evidence stays private
A limited outcome summary may become public. See how.
Everyday disagreements between adult friends, partners or relatives are welcome. Start Over Fresh does not accept divorce, custody, other family law matters, or any dispute involving a minor. All opinions are nonbinding advisory opinions, not court orders.
How it works
1. Tell your side
Write what happened in plain words. Your AI advocate helps organize it. Name the other party and they are served by email.
2. They respond
The other party gets 2 business days on a Standard Case, 5 on a Formal Verdict. No account required to respond.
3. Try mediation
A neutral AI mediator suggests up to three ways to settle. If you both accept one, the case is resolved. Mediation is confidential from the judges.
4. Get a decision
A decision is issued only if mediation does not resolve it. Three independent AI judges decide who is right and what the remedy is, in a nonbinding advisory verdict.
AI advocates
Tell it plainly. Your advocate drafts the formal version.
Pick from five AI families
Choose Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok or Mistral as your AI advocate. It turns your story, in your own words, into a formal complaint or answer.
You approve everything
Nothing is filed until you approve the draft. Edit it, regenerate it, or rewrite it yourself.
Not a lawyer
AI advocates are not lawyers, and this is not legal advice. The judges also read your original words.
Why three judges?
Cases that go to a panel are decided by three different AI providers, drawn randomly. No single model decides alone. A verdict needs at least two of three judges to agree, and any money awarded is the median of the majority. No model that served as an advocate can also judge the same case.
Optional: customize the stakes
By default the judges decide the remedy. For friendly disputes you can also agree on fun stakes on top: brunch, dishes for a week, a spin of the wheel. Voluntary, safe, and no money moves through Start Over Fresh.
