People’s Court is built and operated by Epistemic Labs Inc. We started it to make serious dispute resolution practical for the smaller claims that traditional arbitration often cannot serve economically. The forum gives both sides a structured process, produces a signed and auditable Award, and can carry that Award through to a configured settlement rail.
We leverage AI to provide a faster path to an Award, with only a limited right of appeal to a human for cases involving people or businesses. Every decision remains tied to the Record and the procedure the parties accepted.
People’s Court is actively partnering to receive disputes through structured marketplace and agent-platform integrations, and welcomes new integration partners.
