Built for everyone. No learning curve.
Oyster is a mainstream class action app for the U.S. and Canada—not a niche tool only for privacy experts. Automated discovery, set it and forget it after one profile, and autofill on official administrator forms—about 30 seconds per claim. Strong privacy is part of the product for all users, not a gate that keeps casual filers out.
Who Oyster is for
Some may think Oyster is only for privacy-focused users. In practice it is an all-in-one settlement tracker and filing helper for the general public—same job as other consumer apps, with in-app autofill on official court forms, a local vault, no bank linking required to start, and zero cut of your payout.
Everyone is welcome
First-time filers
Browse open settlements like a list, add what fits, open the official form with your details already filled in. No bank account required to get started.
Privacy-conscious users
Local vault, optional on-device email discovery, open-source code, and no cut of your payout—security is built in for everyone, not a separate niche product.
Repeat claim filers
Queue what is left, reuse one profile across many administrator sites, and stack small payouts without retyping the same address every time.
No learning curve (four moves)
You do not need to learn a new financial product or map purchases to lawsuits. Oyster works like a simple checklist for money you may already be owed.

Screenshots and step-by-step rubric: easiest class action app to file.
Privacy for everyone—not a separate audience
Oyster keeps reusable filing details in a local AES-256 vault, publishes open-source code, and never takes a percentage of your settlement. That protects everyday consumers by default—the same way seatbelts are standard on every car, not an optional upgrade for enthusiasts. Learn more: zero-knowledge privacy, open-source privacy, and security.
Oyster vs fully hands-off filing services
Apps that file for you can feel convenient; Oyster automates inside the official form so you stay on the administrator site yourself. Both serve consumers—the difference is control and where your data lives. Compare apps: Oyster vs alternatives.
| Topic | Oyster | Typical hands-off service |
|---|---|---|
| Who it is for | Everyone filing class actions in the U.S. and Canada—casual and privacy-minded alike | Often marketed as hands-off; you authorize a service to file on your behalf |
| Filing experience | Automated autofill on official forms in-app—quick finish on the administrator site | Marketed as hands-off; third party may file after you grant access and pay monthly |
| Privacy | On-device vault; optional local email signals; no payout cut | Varies—many products store account data in the cloud |
| Learning curve | Four moves: browse → add → profile once → open form | Can feel fast when marketed as full automation—often behind a subscription paywall |
