What is Pilipuka Agent?

Pilipuka Agent is an AI-powered tool that helps you understand if your criminal records in Hawaii might be eligible for expungement (removal from public records). Instead of manually reviewing complex legal documents, this tool does the heavy lifting for you.

How it works:

  1. You search Hawaii's court system (eKokua) for your cases and save the results as PDFs
  2. Upload your search results - Our AI reviews them to identify which cases might qualify for expungement
  3. Upload detailed case information - For relevant cases, upload the detailed PDFs from the court system
  4. Get your results - Our AI analyzes your cases against Hawaii expungement law and tells you if you may be eligible

Why use this tool? Hawaii's expungement laws are complex, with different rules for different types of cases. This tool uses artificial intelligence trained on Hawaii law to quickly analyze your specific situation and give you preliminary guidance—saving you time and helping you understand your options before speaking with an attorney.
