What the Judges are Saying
I just want to say how impressed I am that you built the AI yourself—that’s an incredible achievement and already sets your project apart. Your idea tackles something truly important: helping people understand their legal rights in a way that’s simple, private, and accessible. That core mission is both timely and powerful. The AI is clear and easy to use, which is a huge strength. To make it even more effective, the user interface could be simplified further to guide users more directly to the AI experience. A few additional elements could take this even further: adding real-time guidance for moments of crisis (like being pulled over or in an accident), connecting users with pro bono or for-profit legal resources, and making the app available in multiple languages to reach more communities. With some clearer storytelling to frame the idea, I truly believe this could become a powerful and empowering tool. You’ve done something really special here—keep going.
Ambitious topical project that tries to inform users of their rights across a number areas. Could be a useful tool for those who might need quick access to understand their rights in a time sensitive manner. Would be useful to show where answers are coming from (especially since a bunch of these areas discuss legal rights). Impressive creator is leveraging AI to solve a real pain point today!
