I'm a survivor. I couldn't afford a lawyer and I had a phone full of evidence I couldn't make sense of. So I built My Damn Self. You put in your texts, screenshots, photos and recordings. It hands you back one packet, in date order, numbered. mydamnself.com

Do you know what happened in your case, in order, and how long passed between each step? Due Process Audit lines up your court papers by date, one card per paper: when it happened, what kind of paper it is (filing, notice, order), and which document it came from. It also counts the days between papers, so you can see the gaps. It won't guess, either. If something can't be found in your papers, it says UNKNOWN, not "didn't happen." Swipe through to see how to read a timeline. Then line yours up: dueprocessaudit.com Not legal advice. It uses public records and published rules only. The pictures show an invented sample case.

If you're keeping screenshots, photos, voicemails and court papers in five different places, this is for you. My Damn Self puts your texts, photos, papers and recordings on one timeline, in date order, and it stays on your device. Swipe through to see how to read it: • Each card is one piece of evidence: the date, where that date came from, and its exhibit number • Add your side in your own words, right on the file • Narrow it down to just texts, photos, docs or audio when you need one thing fast • Then it reads like a story: "What happened, in order" The emergency packet is free for everyone. mydamnself.com It's an organizing tool, not legal advice. The case in the pictures is made up and every name is blurred.

People who can't afford a lawyer still need to organize their records and understand court procedures. That's why I'm building My Damn Self and Due Process Audit. Follow along for practical tips, real demonstrations, and what I'm learning while building them.

One habit that helps when organizing records: Separate what the record says from what you believe it means. Put the exact words and date in one place. Keep your explanation in a separate note. You can return to the source without losing your own thoughts.
