AI Evidence Vault: Your Digital Alibi Assistant¶
As AI becomes embedded in daily life, your ChatGPT history could become evidence in court cases. This solves the critical need to control, verify, and protect your AI interaction records before they're used against you.
App Concept¶
- Personal vault that automatically logs all your AI assistant interactions with cryptographic timestamps
- Creates verifiable, tamper-proof records of what you actually asked vs. what AI suggested
- Provides exportable legal reports showing context, intent, and your decision-making process
- Offers "AI interaction insurance" - evidence packages prepared for legal defense
- Includes privacy filters to redact sensitive personal data while preserving conversation structure
Core Mechanism¶
- Browser extension and mobile app that intercepts API calls to major AI services
- Blockchain-anchored timestamps prove when interactions occurred
- Smart categorization flags potentially risky conversations (legal, financial, medical)
- Weekly digest shows your AI usage patterns and potential risk exposure
- One-click "legal package" generator for attorneys with full audit trail
- Gamification: "Clean streak" badges for responsible AI usage, risk score monitoring
Monetization Strategy¶
- Freemium: 100 logged interactions/month free, unlimited at $9.99/month
- Premium tier ($29.99/month): Legal consultation access, AI liability insurance ($50K coverage)
- Enterprise: Corporate AI usage monitoring and compliance reporting ($499/month)
- B2B2C: Partner with insurance companies to offer AI liability policies
Viral Growth Angle¶
- Fear-based sharing: "I just learned my ChatGPT history could be used in court" social posts
- Referral program: Free premium month for every friend who joins
- Public case database: Anonymous examples of how AI evidence is used in real cases
- Media partnerships: Expert commentary on high-profile AI evidence cases drives signups
- API for lawyers: Legal firms integrate the service, recommend to clients
Existing projects¶
- ChatGPT's built-in history - Basic logging but no legal protection or verification
- Otter.ai - Transcription service, not focused on legal evidence chain
- Everlaw - Legal ediscovery platform for corporations, not personal use
- Key difference: First consumer-focused AI interaction evidence service with legal-grade verification
