Why the AI Agreement to Mediate Builder Matters

Earlier this year, the AAA launched the AI Agreement to Mediate Builder, which is designed to help parties, counsel, and mediators efficiently generate customized agreements to enter mediation. 

“Like many routine contracts, agreements to mediate can become stale over time,” said AAA DVP of Mediation Tracey Frisch. “We developed this tool to provide greater clarity and confidence at the start of the mediation process.” 

What makes the AI Agreement to Mediate Builder so unique? 

Built for Mediation 

A complement to ClauseBuilder® AI, the AI Agreement to Mediate Builder is designed to support mediation from the start. It enables users to draft tailored, post-dispute agreements to mediate that reflect the specific needs of the parties, the nature of the dispute, and the mediator’s approach, using flexible, user-driven inputs.

The builder supports a more intentional, party-centered mediation process by encouraging users to actively consider and shape the terms of their agreement. 

A Brand You Can Trust 

As demand for efficient, flexible dispute resolution continues to rise, the AAA, a global leader in the field, is looking to expand access through platforms like the AI Agreement to Mediate Builder.  

The tool is trained on a robust set of agreements sourced from experienced AAA mediators, providing alignment with established, real-world practices. 

Plus, it incorporates widely accepted industry standards and key provisions, while allowing for customization so that each agreement is fit for purpose. 

By reducing drafting time and streamlining early-stage preparation, the builder allows practitioners to focus more on strategy, engagement, and resolution. 

The Future of Mediation 

The future of mediation is no longer about improving existing processes. It is about rethinking how we approach the system itself. This includes rethinking how technologies, such as AI, can enhance the application of the legal system. 

The AI-powered Agreement to Mediate Builder reflects the AAA’s continued focus on leveraging newer technologies to improve access, efficiency, and quality in dispute resolution processes.
