Problem

When defect or fraud disputes arise in C2C secondhand transactions, individual buyers need to draft certified letters of demand or small claims court filings to obtain refunds or compensation, but lack legal knowledge—forcing them to spend $75–225 on administrative agents or attorneys, or simply give up. About 70% of small-amount ($37–225) transaction disputes are abandoned due to unfavorable cost-benefit ratios, undermining overall platform trust.

Solution

Users select their dispute type (defect, non-shipment, false listing, change of mind) and enter transaction details. The service auto-generates certified letters of demand, small claims court filings, and platform complaint forms. It provides success rates and estimated timelines by dispute type, with step-by-step guidance through the electronic small claims court filing process.

Target: Individual buyers aged 20–40 who have experienced $37–375 disputes in C2C secondhand marketplaces
Revenue Model: Per Transaction Billing: certified letter generation $3.70, small claims filing generation $7.40, dispute package (certified letter + filing + procedure guide) $11.20
Ecosystem Role: Regulation
