Overview
Mission
Improving access to justice for domestic violence survivors and advocates. Statutefinder.org provides free, instant, crisis-informed legal information and resource navigation tailored to user-described facts and jurisdiction. Available 24/7, multilingual, and accessible worldwide. Statutefinder also helps dv partner organizations extend support through safe and secure artificial intelligence (ai) implementation.
What it reported doing in 2025
Partner ai enablement: provides safe and secure artificial intelligence (ai) implementation for domestic violence nonprofits and other survivor-serving organizations, using human oversight and content safety protocols. Fees from implementations are reinvested to help sustain the organization's free statutefinder platform services. Program offers: white-label licensing of the statutefinder platform with partner branding; custom ai advocacy chatbot development; and implementation support (hosting, monitoring, quality assurance). Deployments follow partner protocols, tone, safety boundaries, and referral pathways; content may include educational legal information (statute identification, protective orders, safety planning, court process) and resource referrals (shelters/hotlines when needed). Information only; not legal advice. Fy'25: - validated a paid recurring monthly subscription model for white-label licensing, demonstrating replicable service delivery. - deployed a white-labeled 24/7 ai advocate for end violence everywhere, a dv nonprofit partner serving survivors in the united states. - the ai provided 24/7 intake coverage. - conducted weekly quality assurance review of chat transcripts with partner's lead advocate. - delivered terms of service and privacy policy for deployment. - holiday coverage (12/4/20251/4/2026): 51 conversations; 46 users; 263 pages of chat transcripts reviewed. (holidays are a heightened-risk period for dv.) - after quality assurance confirmed consistent response quality and safety compliance, partner approved shifting most intake to the ai advocate.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Other-operating. 76% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
