How it works

An AI Arbitrator - Legally Trained

Parties submit their facts, evidence and legal arguments in writing. An artificially intelligent arbitrator reviews the materials, considers the arguments made by each party, makes findings of fact and law, and renders a reasoned arbitration award. A human arbitrator reviews the decision before it is released. The aiADR Arbitration Rules set out the procedure and deadlines. The process is quick, cost-effective, and confidential.
