| Name | Saboot (App Store name will be “Saboot: Dispute Proof Log”) |
|---|---|
| Maker | Abhijeet Verma |
| What it is | An iPhone app that keeps a private, dated evidence log for consumer disputes: call and voice-note recordings with on-device transcripts, photos, screenshots, bills, emails and documents in cases, and chat imports. |
| What it is not | Not a law firm or legal service. Saboot keeps records; it does not give legal advice, certify evidence, or promise that any court, regulator or company will accept it. |
| Platforms | iPhone (iOS). A free companion, Saboot for Mac, is in development; it reads a full WhatsApp history from an iPhone backup and is not published yet. |
| App Store status | Not yet on the App Store. Version 1.0 has been submitted to Apple for review. |
| Price | Free for 2 open cases. Saboot Pro: $9.99 per year or $1.99 per month (or the same in local currency), with Family Sharing. If Pro ends, cases stay on the device. |
| Account and server | No account and no Saboot server. No analytics, no ads. |
| Where data is kept | On the iPhone and in the user’s own iCloud Drive. Transcription and text recognition run on the device. |
| Only network use | An optional independent timestamp (RFC 3161, off by default, part of Pro, planned for 1.1) sends only the SHA-256 hash of the export’s manifest to a time-stamping authority, currently FreeTSA, described as a basic proof. |
| Export | PDF with cover, timeline and exhibits, plus a ZIP of the untouched original files, with a SHA-256 fingerprint for each file. |
| Chat sources | WhatsApp (its own Export chat, and full histories from an iPhone backup via Saboot for Mac), Telegram, Messenger and Signal exports. |
| Record statement | A signable draft that lists each exhibit with its hash value. Versions: General; India (Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam 2023, section 63, Part A drafted, Part B left blank for an expert); United Kingdom (England and Wales witness statement); United States (28 U.S.C. 1746 declaration); Australia (affidavit); Canada (affidavit). Saboot does not certify the statement. |
| Reminders | Promises such as “we’ll call back by Friday” become to-dos with reminders; warranty reminders 30 days and 7 days before expiry. |
| Release 1.0 | Submitted to App Store review; not released. |
| Release 1.1 | In development; not submitted. Planned: chat imports from other apps, record statements, the optional independent timestamp and full-history WhatsApp chats. |
