Revolutionary AI-Powered Legal Dispute Resolution Solution Bot MediationTM Selected to Present at ABA Tech 2025’s Pitch Competition
Legal tech startup introduces first-of-its-kind artificial intelligence mediator, making dispute resolution more accessible, efficient, and cost-effective
Costa Mesa, CA, Monday 24, 2025 — Bot Mediation announces their groundbreaking Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform is among a select group of innovative legal tech solutions to present at ABA Tech’s Pitch Competition, which will be held on April 2nd.
From 74,695 votes, Bot Mediation was among 15 finalists selected to face off in TECHSHOW’s opening-night pitch competition. The finalists will be selected from a vote of the conference’s attendees at the conclusion of the pitches. And all 15 finalists get to exhibit in a special Startup Alley portion of the TECHSHOW exhibit hall.
As a point of distinction from some of the other legal solutions presenting at TECHSHOW, Bot Mediation is the first legal technology solution purpose-built for alternative dispute resolution. The platform introduces the legal industry’s first AI mediator, designed to facilitate settlements more efficiently and cost-effectively than conventional mediation methods.
“The legal industry is ready for innovation in dispute resolution,” said Darren Fancher, co-founder of Bot Mediation and former CEO of CASEpeer. “While virtual meetings helped during the pandemic, they didn’t address the fundamental challenges of traditional mediation – scheduling conflicts, high costs, and potential bias. We’ve created a solution that makes mediation accessible 24/7 while significantly reducing costs and ensuring consistent, data-driven outcomes.”
Bot Mediation’s platform reimagines dispute resolution through:
- AI-Driven Analysis: Bot Mediation analyzes disputes and guides parties toward fair settlements based on actual case data
- Always-Available Virtual Environment: Secure, synchronous platform enables parties to engage in mediation at their convenience
- Real-Time Progress Tracking: Sophisticated toolkit helps parties monitor settlement progression and maintain momentum
- Data-Driven Approach: AI technology helps support consistent evaluation of cases based on settlement data, thereby reducing the risk of human bias
- Significant Cost Reduction: Reduces legal fees and eliminates mediator fees associated with traditional human-mediated sessions
Curtis Holdsworth, co-founder and experienced trial attorney, emphasized the platform’s practical applications: “As someone who has spent countless hours in mediation, I recognized that AI could do more than just assist mediators – it could transform the entire process. Bot Mediation doesn’t just streamline negotiations; it provides a truly neutral, data-informed foundation for reaching settlements.”
The platform’s launch comes at a pivotal time as the legal industry increasingly embraces technological solutions. Bot Mediation’s innovative approach addresses the growing demand for efficient, accessible dispute resolution while maintaining the essential human elements of successful mediation.
