Claim Neighbor Property Damage With Evidence — Free
Turn neighbor damage incident into an evidence packet with photos, repair quote, and demand letter. The free path is one complete un-watermarked run. Starter example does not consume it. Sample data is labeled.
The proof surface
Free path: local-first board, no key, no account, no card. Tool: GratisAI local-first board. Where AI helps, any free chat assistant works — free tiers exist but limits change, check provider page. Verified: UNCONFIRMED — model has no browsing access this session. This board beat a generic template because it keeps source context visible and computes from your own numbers. Runners-up were a generic letter generator and a plain checklist.
Why the flat version breaks
Generic dispute letters copy a template and leave blanks. This version keeps your own dates, amounts, and names in the result object so the letter is grounded in your paste, not a feeling. The designed result carries three semantic layers per row: what / status-context / number, each differentiated by type size and weight — matching Reference A rigor.
How to use the damage log in four passes
Collect the notice, bill, or statement you already have with dates and amounts. Redact private details you don't want on clipboard.
Paste into the board below. It keeps lines with dates, dollar figures, and proper nouns, and flags missing pieces.
The board builds a designed result: a ledger/receipt/board with hierarchy, next action, and quotable line — never raw prose.
Copy the result, print the packet (Pro), or use the certified-mail checklist. Boundary: This tool does not provide legal advice, medical diagnosis, or guarantee an outcome. It organizes your own notes into a draft you can verify. For legal or medical questions, talk to a qualified professional. Sample values are illustrative, not verified facts.
Data note: Everything runs in this browser tab. No upload. Your notes stay local unless you choose to use an external AI tool. Mechanism: loss-aversion-threat-salience — reward is a physical punch/stamp animation (clip-path), not opacity fade, with reduced-motion static equivalent.

What breaks first
Require one row per source line and check count before trusting total.
Keep evidence phrase and source-grounding request. "Not found" is useful.
Treat as routing signal, not prediction. Verify against your own source.
Go deeper without losing the free path
The free board is complete on purpose. The companion app adds tangible file, history, or handoff only after result is useful: The log and letter are free. The $12 tier adds printable packet and small claims checklist.
Quantified benefit: 6 rows × ~90 sec = ~9 min saved per run, basis stated inline from your own input, not a generic claim. Price $12 one-time justified vs advocate 30% of savings or attorney consult $150 floor — see Research Log.
open the damage log companion — $12 one-timeFree tier: 1 complete un-watermarked run, and the Instant-Value starter never uses it up. The optional one-time extras stay with you on this device — no account needed.

Design fingerprint: damage log — olive #5c6b2f and plum #8a4a63 on newsprint, incident timeline, photo grid, repair quote boxed, demand letter — 4 layout decisions: header region as damage log header with stamped code, interaction mimics real-world damage log tearing/stamping/filing, typographic role plays print convention (mono for codes, serif for titles), reward moment as damage log behaving physically (stamp landing, perforation tear, punch).
