Text. Data. Insights. Justice.
We live in an age of measurement.
Amazon tracks millions of packages daily. Netflix analyzes what we watch to predict what we’ll enjoy next. Doctors rely on electronic medical records to deliver better care.
And yet, the justice system — especially criminal justice — remains a black box.
Courts still depend on traditions that date back centuries. Even the simplest questions have no public answers: How long does it take to respond to a motion? How much does that length of time vary by judge, court, or case type? More complex questions, like fairness in sentencing, are nearly impossible to evaluate.
If Amazon can track packages, Netflix recommend what we watch, and doctors use digital records to save lives — why can’t we measure justice just as precisely?
Unmeasured Justice is a nonprofit using advanced Natural Language Processing and AI to transform unstructured legal documents into structured, analyzable data. By converting text into data and then data into insights, we make the justice system visible: a system that can finally be measured, understood, and improved.
Our goal is to help craft a justice system that is more equitable and accountable.
Our mission is to provide objective evidence, not give one side an edge in litigation, so that policymakers, legal professionals, and the public can see how justice performs — and where it can do better.
