CourtLock — Certified Smartwatch & Health‑Data Evidence Sprint
-
OPPORTUNITY NAME AND PROMISE CourtLock: a fast, court‑ready extraction, normalization and affidavit pack for consumer wearable health data (Apple Health, Apple Watch, Fitbit, Garmin). Promise: produce a certified, timelineed Health‑Data Evidence Pack your lawyer can use — delivered remotely in 48–72 hours.
-
EXACT BUYER AND URGENT PROBLEM Buyer: worried consumers and families (or their lawyers) facing an urgent legal/insurance/medical dispute (e.g., accident claims, custody hearings, contested death/assault timelines) who need admissible, time‑stamped wearable/phone health data fast. Problem: device data exists but is fragmented, confusing, and not presented in a forensically defensible, court‑ready format — causing stress and lost claims.
-
CUSTOMER TRANSFORMATION From “I have data but it’s useless” to “I have a signed, timestamped Evidence Pack: raw exports, normalized CSVs, annotated timeline charts, metadata audit trail and a notarized chain‑of‑custody affidavit ready to lodge with counsel or court.”
-
DELIVERABLES AND REMOTE FEASIBILITY
- Intake checklist + secure upload link (or prepaid mail‑in device).
- Forensic export / Apple Health XML / Fit‑bit JSON extraction.
- Normalized timeline (heart rate, steps, elevation, location snippets) + visual charts.
- Metadata log, MD5 checksums, and short expert interpretation memo.
- Notarized chain‑of‑custody affidavit and PDF bundle formatted for discovery. Remote feasible: most clients can export Apple Health or create an encrypted backup; device mail‑in option for locked/damaged units.
- PRICING AND UNIT ECONOMICS
- CourtLock Base Pack (1 device, 72‑hr): $1,800 CAD.
- Pack + Attorney Affidavit / Expert Declaration: $2,800 CAD.
- Expedited (24‑hr) or multi‑device: $3,500 CAD. Variable costs per job: cloud storage & secure transfer ~$20, notarization ~$30, shipping (if any) ~$40. Estimated gross contribution ≈ $1,700–$2,700 per engagement.
