How it works
Every serve, on the record
Dispatch.
Upload your papers — hashed the moment they land. Name the party, the addresses, the deadline. Review the itemized quote and confirm. A person confirms every dispatch. Nothing fires on its own.
Watch.
Your serve is offered only to officers holding a current, verified authorization for that county. Each attempt is logged as it happens: time-stamped, location-corroborated, photo-capable. You see what the officer sees, when the officer logs it.
Receive proof.
The officer writes and swears their own return of service. We retrieve it, hash it, and check it against the order — recipient, documents, method, date, and the officer’s authorization as of the day of service. Only then does your serve read SERVED.
Attempt logs are corroborating context recorded by the officer’s device. The sworn return is the proof.

Who it serves
Stop calling for status.
Solo practice, large firm, or self-represented where lawful — the same record. Live timelines instead of phone tag. A proof vault instead of a fax tray. Deadline clocks instead of sticky notes. The affidavit, its hash, and the full attempt log — in one place, exportable, of record.
Join the dispatch waitlist →Built for the officer of the court, not the gig economy.
Offers come to you — accept or decline, one tap, never scored. Log attempts from one screen with one hand. Author your own affidavit and get your lawful fee in full. No deductions. No quotas. No scores. From a single marshal to a large network, the terms are the same. Free for officers, forever.
Join the officer waitlist →Dispatch at volume. Proof by retrieval.
A REST API with the same authorization gate at every tier. Create serves, follow append-only events, and pull affidavits that don’t exist until they’re verified — then re-hash the bytes yourself. A named human confirms every dispatch; no endpoint can serve, sign, or set SERVED.

Fail-closed is the product
Service of process belongs to licensed officers — in Connecticut, commissioned state marshals with county-scoped authority. APPARITOR is built so that nothing else is possible.
The gate, drawn: every serve passes every check — or nothing happens
verified = false
every officer starts here — default-deny
TWO-KEY HUMAN CHECK
roster snapshot · dated · countersigned
COUNTY-MATCHED OFFER
checked at offer · re-checked at accept
SWORN RETURN
written, signed, and sworn by the officer
THE AIRLOCK
retrieved · hashed · order-matched
SERVED
a checked document, not a status flag
Expired, revoked, unverified, or wrong county — at any check, the pipeline refuses. The job is never even visible to that officer. There is no override.
Unverified means invisible.
Every officer starts verified = false. Two independent reviewers check each commission against the authoritative roster, snapshot it, and countersign before a single offer can reach that officer. Expired, revoked, or unverified — the job is never even visible.
The county is the boundary.
Authorization is matched at the county, not the state. A marshal commissioned in one county is never offered a job in another. Checked at offer, re-checked at accept, checked again at proof.
SERVED is a document, not a status.
No button sets SERVED. No API sets SERVED. A serve is complete only when the officer’s signed return is retrieved, hashed, and order-matched — and the officer’s authorization was valid on the sworn date of service.
States open when they’re signed.
Every state launches only after its regulatory posture, worker-classification review, and officer-authorization registry are signed. Our coverage map shows exactly what’s open and what’s pending — nothing more.
The seal means one thing: sworn proof, captured and verified.
The product
Two surfaces. One record.
The office is ancient. The proof is new.
The apparitor was the Roman court officer who carried the magistrate’s process to the parties. The office never disappeared — today it is the licensed process server, the commissioned state marshal. APPARITOR is not the officer. It is the magistrate’s ledger: the record of who was summoned, by whose hand, and how we know.
Launching state by state, Connecticut first — each jurisdiction opens only when its legal groundwork is signed.
