Value proposition
Reduces the time and cost of dispute resolution by up to 90% through an AI-led, asynchronous process that eliminates the need for scheduling conflicts and expensive hourly mediator fees.
Products and solutions

Unique value
Unlike traditional mediation which requires all parties to be present simultaneously, Dyspute uses an 'asynchronous' AI model, allowing disputes to be resolved incrementally over time through a digital interface.
Target customer
Primary GTM: existing mediation providers, community ODR centers, bar associations, and high-volume providers needing a low-cost AI mediation tier with provider dashboards; also SMBs, individuals (small claims / employment disputes often under ~$25k), HR, law firms, and startups via 9to5 Docs contract-embedded mediation.
Industries served
Legal Tech, Human Resources (Employment Disputes), Insurance, Small Business Services
Technology advantage
Combines founders' deep in-house legal/IP expertise (Renee: ex-Zynga/Splunk/Wish/Clutter; Frank: ex-Clorox/Wish/Zynga/Gap IP counsel) with LLM-based asynchronous negotiation logic, productizing mediation strategy into scalable SaaS for consumers and mediation providers.
How they differentiate
Dyspute differentiates through its 'Adri' AI persona, which facilitates asynchronous mediation. Unlike traditional ODR (Online Dispute Resolution) platforms that still rely on human mediators or simple document templates, Dyspute uses LLM-based negotiation logic to act as a neutral third party that can resolve disputes 24/7 without scheduling conflicts.
