Kleros fellow proposes blockchain appeal layer for airline claims
Joan Bisonó, a Kleros fellow, published a study proposing an appeal layer inside airlines' own claims processes for consumer disputes in the Dominican Republic. He notes a consumer claim against an airline currently takes one to five years to resolve in Dominican courts, versus days with the proposed system — at no cost to the passenger.
Kleros's official account re-promoted the proposal, framing it against the legal-AI landscape: of the thirteen legal AI startups in Y Combinator's 2026 batches, seven do the legal work themselves but leave the decision-making untouched — the part Kleros builds.
