Gridsum's "Wei Su" Platform Integrated into Beijing Fourth Intermediate People's Court Mobile Smart Court Platform

BEIJING, Jan. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Gridsum Holding Inc. ("Gridsum" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: GSUM), a leading provider of cloud-based big-data analytics and artificial intelligence ("AI") solutions in China, today announced that its "Wei Su" platform, a customized version of its "Faxin Wei Su" platform that provides litigation services on WeChat's micro application platform and was jointly developed by Gridsum and the PRC People's Court Press, has been integrated into the Mobile Smart Court Platform launched by the Beijing Fourth Intermediate People's Court (the "Intermediate Court").

The Mobile Smart Court Platform is a litigation service that leverages the powerful connectivity of WeChat's micro application platform to provide prosecutors, law firms, litigants and others within the judicial system with fast and secure channels to access services that cover the entire litigation process from initial filings and evidence submission to case status inquiries, remote trial handling and the appeals. The Mobile Smart Court Platform will greatly improve trial efficiency over the Intermediate Court's jurisdiction which spans Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei Province.

Leveraging Gridsum's unparalleled capabilities in big data and AI, the "Wei Su" platform allows all parties to join a trial remotely and produce and question evidence throughout the process. All documents, including trial records, settlement agreements and other related files can also be accessed online after the trial is over. The "Wei Su" platform's diversified dispute resolution system provides efficient and flexible tools for remote trials and should help ease congestion in a highly crowded court system.   

Gridsum will continue to work closely with the Intermediate Court to explore new applications of technology and big data as well as jointly implement and operate the Mobile Smart Court Platform.

Mr. Guosheng Qi, Chief Executive Officer of Gridsum, commented, "The integration of our "Wei Su" platform into the Intermediate Court's Mobile Smart Court Platform demonstrates the effectiveness of our overall strategy to build highly scalable products that can be customized and applied to many different situations and scenarios. Following the successful launch of our "Faxin Wei Su" platform in November 2017, we immediately began customizing this platform for the Intermediate Court which has a much larger jurisdiction and will use it across a wider variety of cases. I am confident that this represents another important step in China's judicial system's migration towards a 'Smart Court' initiative that will greatly benefit everyone involved. We remain committed to leveraging our big data and extensive AI capabilities to help China reform its judicial process and will continue to work closely with all parties involved to promote and apply this technology across the judicial ecosystem."
