The Power of Science
Powered by an expansive collection of millions of facial response data points, Jury Lab takes the science of emotion recognition technology proven in autism diagnosis, marketing/advertising research and sophisticated political strategies, and brings it to the legal profession.
So rather than the risk of assumptions, Jury Lab delivers greater clarity and certainty — which can translate into smarter settlements, adjustments in case strategy and improved chances of victory.
According to recent research , even the observations of the most astute federal judges, clinical psychologists and law enforcement professionals are right only about half the time when it comes to accurately gauging people’s emotions.
With Jury Lab in play at mock trial settings, however, attorneys can increase that accuracy by 95%.
Professionals who can benefit from Jury Lab include:
How It Works
Once gathered, digital algorithms convert all of these captured expressions into measurable, quantified inputs.
From these inputs are generated customized, easily understood reports legal teams can use to improve their arguments and strengthen their legal strategies.
Measure Emotions
Capture every smile, yawn, raised eyebrow, moment of confusion or other silent signals for conversion into actionable data.
Analyze Data
Easy-to-interpret user interfaces present all the optical sensors measured, integrated seamlessly within a framework of proven benchmarks to drive top-level analysis.
Gather Insights
See both individual and aggregate emotional engagement, plainly communicated to provide you with the information you rely on to optimize your arguments.
Research
Analyzing 447 attorney responses, 59% were aware of and understood the value of mock trial consulting/focus group services, and 24% have used such services in the past. A total of 70% agreed emotions played a significant role in jurors’ decision-making process.
When asked about the advantage of receiving emotive response data (such as Jury Lab) on mock jurors’ reactions to presentations, 34% felt it would be “very significant” and 53% thought it would be “a helpful resource.”
Asked about being able to have a more complete understanding of mock jurors’ emotional reactions to witnesses, evidence, and pictures/videos during presentations, attorney responses ranged from 49%-59% saying it would be “a helpful resource,” and 22%-38% stating it would be “very significant.”
