3x Thesis: The Divorce Industrial Complex Needs a Digital Exit

Most people still treat divorce like a one-off legal event.

But it’s not. It’s an industry. A massive one.
And it’s ripe for a platform play.

$50B+ is spent every year in the US alone across legal fees, mediation, financial restructuring, therapy, custody planning, moving house, selling house, and (inevitably) online dating.

But the experience is still fragmented, opaque, and painful.
A graveyard of bad software, overpriced lawyers, and referral hell.

So let’s state the obvious: divorce isn’t a legal problem.
It’s a life transition. And life transitions need coordination.

There’s a clear opportunity here:

Digitise the Divorce Stack

– Legal services
– Mediation & custody agreements
– Asset division & financial advice
– Home sales, moving, and re-financing
– Emotional support
– Post-divorce dating & community

Bundle it all.
Wrap it in one interface, one brand, one trusted name.
Charge for peace of mind, not just billable hours.

It’s not a small niche. It’s a recurring market.

50% of US marriages end in divorce.
That’s over 600,000 divorces a year.
And increasingly, people expect digital-first, human-backed services.

There’s no “Oscar Health” for divorce yet.
No “Rocket Mortgage” for asset division.
No “Lemonade” for splitting homes.

But there will be.
