Mediation
Resolution Optimizer
The Resolution Optimizer is a multi-dimensional resolution workspace available on Professional and Enterprise tiers for both Vilulia Mediate and Vilulia Arbitrate. It goes beyond traditional blind bidding by allowing parties to confidentially submit priorities across every aspect of a dispute — compensation, timelines, behavioral commitments, confidentiality, and more — while AI finds settlement packages that maximize joint satisfaction.
What you'll learn
- How the multi-dimensional priority submission works
- How AI generates Pareto-optimal settlement packages
- How mediators control transparency and round progression
- Supported dimension types
- Security and encryption of confidential submissions
Access requirements
The Resolution Optimizer requires the Professional or Enterprise plan. It is not available on Starter plans. The mediator or arbitrator controls the session, while parties submit priorities through the client portal.
Dimension types
When creating a session, the mediator defines the dimensions parties will submit priorities on. Each dimension has a type that determines how values are entered and compared:
- monetary: dollar amounts or numeric values (e.g., settlement sum, attorney fees).
- temporal: dates or time ranges (e.g., payment deadline, reinstatement date).
- boolean: yes/no choices (e.g., include non-disparagement clause).
- scale: integer priority weight on a 1–10 scale.
- text: free-form preference description.
Key capabilities
- Confidential multi-dimensional priority submission: Parties rank and weight priorities across multiple dimensions without revealing their preferences to the other side. Each priority submission accepts a weight (1–10) per dimension.
- Pareto-optimal settlement packages: AI analyzes both parties' submissions to generate settlement packages ranked by joint satisfaction score, where no party can be made better off without making the other worse off.
- Mediator-controlled progressive transparency: The mediator decides when and which dimension overlaps to reveal to the parties, maintaining strategic control over the negotiation. Each dimension can be revealed independently.
- Iterative negotiation rounds with overlap detection: Multiple rounds allow parties to adjust priorities as the mediator reveals areas of agreement, narrowing the gap with each iteration. The mediator advances rounds and selects the final winning package.
- Works for monetary and non-monetary terms simultaneously: Unlike blind bidding (which only handles a single dollar amount), the Resolution Optimizer handles any combination of dimensions in a single session.
Security
All confidential party submissions are encrypted using AWS KMS encryption at rest. The mediator controls which information is shared and when. Raw priority data is never exposed to the opposing party — only the AI-generated packages and mediator-approved overlap summaries are shared.
