A recommended next step
Every report ends with a recommended next step, so you can decide whether to talk it through, gather more information or get professional advice.
The product
A clearer picture of every dispute, from assessment to resolution.
Reso helps you understand individual disputes and manage them across your organisation. Assess the facts, review the legal issues and keep important information together, so your team can make more consistent decisions and see where attention is needed.
Inside Reso
From the first account of a dispute to managing it across your team.
It starts with what happened. You describe the dispute in your own words and add your documents. Reso weighs each side against New Zealand law and cites every source, so you can check the reasoning rather than take it on trust.
For organisations, we're building what comes next. Each assessment becomes a matter your team can manage: ranked by priority and estimated financial risk so the urgent ones come first, with settlement authority tracked against offers, and reporting that shows leadership volumes, cost and time to resolve.
An assessment
Across your organisation
Getting started
You start by choosing whether it's just you or both sides, the type of dispute and your role. Then you describe what happened and add your documents.
Strengths and weaknesses
The strengths and risks for each side, side by side, so you can see your position the way the other party and a decision-maker might.
Legislation and case law
Each legal question is worked through against the legislation and case law, with every source cited so you can check it yourself or share it with your lawyer.
Matter overview
Every open dispute across your sites in one list, ranked by priority. The estimated financial risk, stage, owner and next deadline sit side by side, so you can see what needs attention today.
Matter management
Each matter keeps its assessment, stage, notes and deadlines in one place. Settlement authority and each side's offers are recorded against it, so anyone picking it up can see where things stand.
Reporting
Dispute volumes, estimated financial risk, settlement cost and time to resolve, by period, site and region, ready to export as a pack for your board or leadership team.
Insights
See where disputes cluster and how they end: volumes over time, hotspots by site, outcomes of closed disputes and where the estimated financial risk sits by region.
Example employment assessment. What a report contains depends on the dispute and the information provided.
Some features depend on your plan. We'll show you what suits your team in a demo.
Reso and general AI
How Reso differs from general AI assistants like ChatGPT.
General AI assistants are useful for many things, including research. Reso does one job: it assesses a dispute against selected New Zealand law and sets out the result in a report you can check, share and compare.
General AI assistants
Reso
What it is built for
General AI: A general assistant. You decide what to ask, what to include and how to frame it.
Reso: A purpose-built assessment that asks for the facts and documents a dispute needs, in a set order.
Where the law comes from
General AI: Training data and, in some assistants, web search. Sources vary and may not be New Zealand law.
Reso: Selected New Zealand legislation and case law, chosen and maintained by our legal team.
Citations
General AI: Some assistants cite sources, but references can be wrong or made up, so each one needs checking.
Reso: Each point cites identifiable New Zealand legislation or decisions, so you can check the source.
Consistency
General AI: Answers can change with how the question is worded.
Reso: The same report structure every time, using the same framework for each type of dispute.
Both sides
General AI: Usually one person describes the dispute from their side.
Reso: In a shared assessment, both parties give their account and evidence independently.
Beyond the report
The features that help you act on a report.
A report is the start of the work, not the end of it. These are the features that help you act on it and manage disputes as a team. Some are available now and some are coming next.
Available now
A shared assessment with the other party
Invite the other party by link. They give their account and upload evidence without creating an account, and you both receive the same report at the same time.
Disputes kept in one place
Organisation accounts give your team shared cases, so each dispute, its documents and its report sit together rather than across inboxes.
Control over who does what
Invite colleagues as members or administrators, require two-step sign in, and suspend access when someone leaves without losing their history.
Your data, on your terms
Administrators set how long case data is kept before it is deleted, and reports can be downloaded as PDFs for your own records.
Alerts when a case comes in
Choose who gets an email when a new case is submitted, so nothing sits unnoticed in the account.
Coming next
Next steps
Rolling outTurn the assessment into the actions that usually follow: a meeting invitation, a without-prejudice settlement email or a resolution agreement, drafted from your report for you to review.
