Jury Management Solution for Courts
Increase juror attendance with efficient jury management.
Schedule a DemoThe Problem: Courts across the country report as high as 48% Failure to Appear (FTA) for jury duty.
Court System Impact
Many jurors who don't show up for court report having never received their summons. High nonresponse and FTA rates force the summoning of extra jurors and cause staff time to be used on jury-related tasks.
Public Impact
Inaccurate addresses can cause mail delivery failure. No-shows overburden those who do participate and lead to less diverse jury pools that inadequately represent marginalized communities.
Our Solution: Modernize jury communications with innovative features.
Coordinate everything from juror data collection to FTA rate insights, all in one place.
Randomized Selection
Ensure fairness and legal standards compliance with randomized juror, judge, and date selection. Notify jurors by mail, text, email, and phone.
Multichannel Notifications
Send immediate or scheduled one-off and bulk messages to juror groups with notifications and last-minute changes.
Online Forms Management
Create and distribute online forms (including Voir Dire questionnaires) with streamlined response and excusal management.
Juror Self-Enrollment
Allow jurors to sign up for direct notifications with QR codes included in their mailed summons.
Reports and FTA Insights
