Court Messaging & Reminders

Reach every person on the channel they actually use: SMS, email, voice, and push. Behavioral-science messaging is a core driver of the $1 billion+ a year in taxpayer costs eCourtDate is on pace to help agencies avoid.

The problem

Missed court dates are the most expensive problem in justice operations.

A single failure to appear triggers bench warrants, rescheduling, and downstream costs. The national average FTA rate sits near 23%. Most agencies rely on a separate notification vendor that does not know the case, the language, or the risk. Messaging closes that gap by making every reminder behavioral, personalized, and connected to the case it belongs to.

What it does

Every capability inside Messaging & Court Reminders: built in, configurable, and connected to the rest of the platform.

  • Multi-Channel Delivery

    Reach people via SMS, email, voice calls, and push notifications, with automatic channel selection based on each recipient.

  • Behavioral Templates

    A library of message templates grounded in behavioral-science research and tested for response rates across demographics.

  • Risk-Based Scheduling

    Reminder frequency and timing adapt to each case’s risk score, concentrating outreach where it changes outcomes.

  • Voice & Virtual Numbers

    Provision local, toll-free, and short-code numbers, plus inbound calls handled by a natural-sounding AI voice assistant.

  • 100+ Languages

    Automatic language detection and translation deliver every message in the recipient’s preferred language.

  • Real-Time Delivery Tracking

    Monitor delivery, read, and response rates live, and see appearance outcomes by case type and demographic.

  • Compliance Built In

    TCPA consent, opt-in/opt-out, and quiet-hours enforcement are handled automatically on every send.

How it works

From data to outcome, automatically

  1. 01

    Connect your cases

    Sync cases and events from your case management system or import them. Every reminder is tied to a real client, case, and date.

  2. 02

    Score the risk

    Each case is scored so the system knows who needs one reminder and who needs a sequence.

  3. 03

    Send the right message

    Behavioral templates go out on the right channel, in the right language, at the right time, automatically.

  4. 04

    Track and intervene

    Watch delivery and responses in real time; escalation workflows step in before a missed date becomes a bench warrant.
