What the AI's answer looks like

Illustrative excerpt: the real answer depends on the AI you use and what you fill in.

| Date | Event | Who | Source | Strength |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Last June (date to confirm) | Contract signed | Both | Contract | Strong |
| Last August (date to confirm) | First batch delivered | Us | Delivery note | Strong |
| After August (date to confirm) | Buyer claims quality issues, withholds payment | Buyer | Client's account | Weak |
| Sept 5 | Buyer emails asking to return goods | Buyer | Email | Strong |
| Sept 12 | We reply offering a replacement | Us | Email | Strong |
| From October | Buyer stops answering calls | Buyer | Client's account | Weak |

Missing evidence
- The buyer's acceptance or signed receipt
- Anything in writing or photos describing the quality problem

Questions for the client
- When and how was the quality problem first raised?

Tips

  • Always use code names for the parties, such as Company A or Mr. B
  • Note where each piece came from (statement, email, contract) so the AI can rate the evidence
  • Anything marked "date to confirm" is where you need to go back for records

How to use it

  1. Fill in the fields. You can leave a field empty for now; the prompt will show a [Please add] placeholder.

  3. Paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek or a local model. If the AI asks you questions, answer them and the result gets better.
