Foreperson / Organizer
Process-led, evidence-first, and hard to sway without a structured record.
OptoJury simulates a statistically grounded jury panel from your state and county, running deliberations against your narrative. See who's persuadable, what breaks your case, and which theory wins the room.
Full Panel Simulation
OptoJury builds a statistically calibrated jury from your state and county, assigns archetype-driven jurors, and runs a multi-round deliberation against your case. All before trial.
Each deliberation round surfaces who's moving, what's moving them, and where your case is losing ground. You see the full arc of the deliberation, not just the final tally.
Built on Jury Science
Juror archetypes are calibrated on validated psychological instruments: RWA (Right-Wing Authoritarianism), Need for Cognition, and Just World Beliefs scales. Venue weights are modeled using regional demographic trends, historical case outcomes, and community attitude data, applying the jury behavior parameters established by Devine et al. (2007) and Hans (2000).
These aren't generic AI personas. They're statistically modeled jurors who behave like the real pool in your county. Each archetype carries calibrated trait scores for institutional trust, damages sensitivity, reactance, and authority deference: the variables that actually predict deliberation behavior.
Process-led, evidence-first, and hard to sway without a structured record.
High empathy, generous on damages, and responsive to human narrative.
Low institutional trust, punitive toward perceived misconduct, plaintiff-leaning.
Evidence-driven, detail-heavy, and resistant to emotional shortcuts.
Moves with the room once a majority hardens and the social pressure becomes visible.
Tests institutions aggressively and spots weak reasoning fast.
Fast, visceral, and highly responsive to injury testimony and moral framing.
Large awards trigger skepticism; compensation is read through an economic lens.
Processes through lived experience and personal analogy more than abstraction.
High rule-deference, skeptical of oversized verdicts, and sensitive to blame allocation.
Narrative Testing
Run your negligence theory against strict liability. Test your damages narrative against your liability story. OptoJury pits competing theories against the same panel and tells you which one moves more jurors, and why, before opening statements.
Most cases have a "right" narrative for a given venue and panel composition. The A/B results show you not just which theory wins, but which archetypes it wins with. You'll know exactly who you're writing your opening for.
Narrative A/B Results
Analytic Processors split 2–2 on strict liability. Negligence framing moved both to plaintiff.
Case Management Integrations
Connect to Clio, Filevine, or SmartAdvocate. OptoJury pulls your matter directly into the simulation engine with no re-entering of case facts. When the report is ready, push the summary back to the matter with one click.
Your case management system is where the work lives. OptoJury meets you there, pulling the facts you've already entered and returning the simulation results as a note on the matter, so your file stays complete.
How It Works
Connect Clio, Filevine, or SmartAdvocate to pull your matter automatically, or enter case details directly. Plaintiff, defendant, injury, liability theory, damages demand, and your planned narrative.
OptoJury assembles a statistically calibrated panel from your state and county, assigns research-backed juror archetypes, and runs a multi-round deliberation against your case, including any competing narrative variants you want to test.
Receive a full report: verdict breakdown, settlement band, holdout signals, juror archetype profiles, shift triggers, proof gaps, and targeted voir dire questions. All ready to act on before trial.
