Outcome
Promises kept, since Lena started
What changed
Before: 4 of 9 phone promises kept (her own count, from memory). After: 12 of 14, and the 2 broken ones are documented, dated and confirmed by the other side.
General information, not legal advice. In many places a written confirmation from the other side is useful evidence if you later go to a tenant advice service, a consumer body or a small claims process.

Every confirmation page ends with "Want your own promises in writing?". Landlords, contractors and dealers see it first.
No promise lost between two people.
- Year 1: renters, homeowners and car buyers in 20 languages capture spoken promises in under a minute.
- Year 2: businesses opt in: "Confirmed with In Writing" becomes a trust badge for contractors and landlords who keep their word.
- Year 3: a neutral, portable record of agreements that tenant unions, consumer bodies and mediators accept as a clean starting point.
