CourtPilot, an AI‑powered legal platform, enables UK e‑commerce sellers to file small‑claims cases without a solicitor. For a one‑off £97 fee, users receive AI‑generated court documents, evidence analysis, and step‑by‑step guidance for claims up to £10,000. The service begins with a free two‑minute assessment that estimates case strength and court fees, then provides a full toolkit including Letters Before Action and CPR‑compliant bundles. CourtPilot runs on Anthropic’s Claude Opus but swaps models to maintain the highest legal accuracy.
