inFORMed is a trauma-informed AI tool that guides gender-based violence (GBV) survivors in South Africa through the protection order process. Developed by GRIT (Gender Rights in Tech), a feminist non-profit, it turns complex legal forms into step-by-step conversations, explains legal terms in plain language, and helps survivors describe their experiences in language courts accept. Built with survivors, legal professionals and community partners, inFORMed is at proof-of-concept stage and will be piloted with legal aid partners in magistrate courts, working alongside human support rather than replacing it.
