Ban Appeal Assistant
Help ordinary users organize evidence, generate appeals, and track multi-platform ban removal
- Problem
- A user got banned from ChatGPT for summarizing cybersecurity papers, appeals were auto-rejected and support useless, forcing re-registration and ID verification. Another used a tool to generate Marketplace ads and got suspended, with appeals going nowhere. Platform ban reasons are vague, channels scattered, and ordinary users don't know how or where to appeal.
- Solution
- A ban appeal manager: guides users to collect timelines, screenshots, and compliance evidence; generates professional appeal letters based on platform policies; records submission time and reminds follow-ups within deadlines; manages account statuses across platforms. A process assistant, no promise of unban.
- Users
- Individuals and small merchants wrongly banned by ChatGPT, Facebook Marketplace, banks, or cloud services
- MVP
- Per-platform appeal template library; timeline and screenshot management; appeal letter generation and copy; follow-up reminders; export full appeal package
- Revenue
- Subscription $7/mo or $5 per appeal package; referral commissions with legal consulting or account recovery services
- Why now
- Automated risk control on AI platforms causes more false bans, appeal processes are opaque and users feel helpless; indie devs can build templates and reminders without platform APIs
