-57.5
Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The project addresses a valid problem in legal accessibility, but the submission contains obvious exaggerations and red flags, such as claiming 'most people have used my product' and 'everyone' as the audience. It provides no verifiable evidence of traction, user metrics, or technical implementation details, completely lacking credibility and therefore scoring below zero.

Description
LawMixer.com is a website that links people, attorneys, and the law through a common interface. It's mission is to provide reliable and useful legal information, and create an efficient marketplace for legal services. The law has become too cumbersome for everyday people to access or understand, and the practice of law is increasingly inefficient for many attorneys—Law Mixer offers a solution to both problems. Law Mixer is an application that allows everyday people to describe a legal situation in common language and then uses advanced text, context, and machine learning analytics to quickly (1) perform multi-dimensional assessments of legal data collections, (2) intelligently sort legal information into themes, and (3) group highly-correlative data. At the end of this process, Law Mixer provides users with reliable, easy-to-understand legal information and tells them what is required to prove their specific claims. Once users obtain information applicable to their individual situation, Law Mixer introduces them to a local attorney specializing in that area. Although Law Mixer is operationally complex, it is free and simple to use.
