How AI-Powered Mediation Works

See a full mediation — start to finish.

AI-powered mediation uses three agents — two private advocates and one neutral mediator — to help people resolve disagreements. Below, Sarah and Alex co-founded a project and disagree on how to split revenue. Here's how the process handles it.

1

Each party talks privately with their advocate

Sarah's Advocate
Private
Hi Sarah. Tell me about the revenue split — what do you think is fair and why?
I managed all the client relationships and did most of the project management. I think 60/40 is fair.
That sounds like significant work. Were these responsibilities agreed upfront, or did they evolve?
They evolved. Alex was supposed to handle more client work but ended up focusing on the technical side.
Got it. What would you be open to if Alex's technical contributions were also substantial?
I'd consider 55/45 if the client management role is acknowledged going forward.
Alex's Advocate
Private
Hi Alex. I'd like to hear your perspective on the revenue split. What feels fair to you?
I built the entire technical platform. Without it there's no product. 50/50 is fair.
That's a strong point. How would you describe the split of overall work between you and Sarah?
She handled clients and scheduling. Important, but the tech is what delivers the actual value.
Would you say both roles were essential to getting revenue, even if different in nature?
Yeah, honestly both were needed. I just don't think client management justifies a bigger share.

Sarah and Alex never see each other's conversations. The advocate helps each person articulate their position fully before anything is shared.

The mediator reviews both perspectives

Mediator's Proposal

Both parties contributed essential but different skills to the project. Sarah focused on client relationships and project management; Alex built the technical platform. Both acknowledge each other's contributions were necessary. The disagreement is about how to weight different types of work.

Proposed Terms

Revenue Split

55% Sarah / 45% Alex for completed project revenue

Reflects the additional client management responsibilities Sarah took on beyond the original agreement, while recognizing Alex's foundational technical work.

Future Projects

50/50 default split with written role agreements before each project

Both parties value clarity. Pre-agreed roles prevent the same dispute from recurring.

Role Acknowledgment

Both parties are credited as co-founders in all client-facing materials

Addresses Sarah's concern about recognition while affirming the equal partnership.

Common Ground

  • Both agree the partnership should continue
  • Both acknowledge each other's work was essential
  • Both want clearer agreements going forward

The mediator sees themes and priorities from both sides — never the exact words or specific numbers shared in private. It balances both perspectives into a single proposal.
