What is JustAnswer?

JustAnswer is an online platform that enables people to get questions answered by a network of over 12,000 verified experts in a range of fields. Users post their questions, and JustAnswer connects them with an appropriate expert, who will gather additional information as needed to provide an answer. Conversations can be had via chat, phone call, text, or other means.

Experts go through a rigorous verification and training process to ensure you’re getting legitimate help. Users can ask questions at any time and receive a direct response.

How does JustAnswer work?

Get started with JustAnswer by creating an account on the company's website. Once you create an account, you get 24/7 access to experts in more than 150 categories. JustAnswer partners with verified doctors, lawyers, veterinarians, mechanics and other professionals to give you quality, one-on-one advice.

JustAnswer pairs you with an expert based on the topic of your question and gives you an unlimited back-and-forth conversation until you have an answer. All of JustAnswer’s experts go through an eight-step verification process, third-party screening and training.

JustAnswer’s average initial response time is six minutes, and the company notifies you by email or text when your question has a response. The company claims most questions are answered in under 30 minutes, including any clarification needed by the expert. If you’re not satisfied with your expert’s advice or want another opinion, JustAnswer gives you a free second opinion from a different expert.

It’s worth noting that JustAnswer does save transcripts of conversations and makes them available on its website for others to reference. However, these are posted anonymously, with the user’s name redacted.

  • Unlimited questions and answers

How much does JustAnswer cost?

JustAnswer charges a refundable, one-time join fee that ranges from $5 to $25, plus a monthly membership fee from $28 to $125 (interestingly enough, tutors are the most expensive category of expert). Any additional charges you incur show up on the page where you enter your payment information. You can review your fees and payments by logging into your JustAnswer account and clicking on “Order History.”

Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to pay for a single question. Memberships can be canceled at any time, and the company suggests signing up for a month, getting your question answered, and then canceling your membership before it renews.

    I was directed to this company because I mistakenly ordered four orders of groceries yesterday from Super 1/ Brookshires instead of one order. First time that this has happened to me Thank GOD. Two of the orders were cancelled and refunded. The status of the other two orders was unknown. The Staff of Just Answer was very helpful with understanding my problem and guiding me to a resolution. I was directed to a technician for further assistance. However, I had difficulty understanding him because of my hearing loss and his very heavy accent.

    Despite my situation he was able to write a very detailed and accurate summary which was very helpful to me. I initially gave Just Answer and their technician a low rating which was my fault. I recant that rating and change my rating to five stars for the staff and four stars for the technician because of his very heavy accent that prevented me from understanding his words, Also, the audio/ volume was too low during our conversation.

      Jarid was great. My only issue was that it wasn't made clear that I would be charged a $65 monthly membership fee after my $5 enrollment charge (a bit of a bait and switch I think). I will likely cancel at the end of the month since I don't know when I will another expert. Please confirm that my monthly fee enables me to follow up with more questions to an expert (like Jarid again if I need to do so)? I assume my membership can then be renewed for another $65 fee for a month if I want to do so at some future date?

      Hello Michael,

      Thank you for reaching out.

      I understand your questions regarding your account status and membership billing details.

      After reviewing your account, I confirmed that you enrolled in a monthly membership with a one-time $5 join fee and a recurring monthly fee of $65. The membership details, including the pricing and billing schedule, were presented during enrollment before the membership was activated.

      Your membership has now been canceled and will remain active through August 20, 2026. No additional monthly membership charges will be billed after that date.

      If you have any other questions about your account, please let us know. We're happy to help.

      Best regards,

      Very involved. Knowledgeable. Gave great advice. Listened and showed empathy to our situation. She’s amazing. Direct. And knows her stuff. We’ve been able to get a more qualified legal aid attorney for my boyfriend and he’s really helped in giving more information on the outcome of his trial. I really want to thank Candice because I do believe she gave me the necessary advice in order to get things moving forward.

      Without divulging too much legal details and information on his case. She still managed to calm us down and give us options that no one else had even bother to do so beforehand in the past 3 months. She took her time and even sent the right links for us to continue on our own with a better understanding of his legal matters and consequences that could affect his future and freedom. Thank you Candice. You have been instrumental in helping us navigate the legal system and we won’t forget it. Best regards, Olivia & Stefano

      Truly, Blake was BEYOND fantastic. I've been juggling paramedic school and an appeal in the Administrative Law Courts against a STATE agency completely, and VERY unwillingly, pro se. If you don't know, that means "HA. You're on your own, kid!" Most attorneys in my area don't want to touch the case because while I "have a compelling case, Unemployment is notoriously difficult. [I] could be right in all the ways that matter and still lose. I even know Pro Bono attorneys that don't take those cases anymore." How sad is that? Welp. Lonely solo fight I go because I'm angry. I'm angry because I deserve to have my voice heard dang it and this isn't just for me. I feel terrible for all the others that simply don't have the gremlin levels of tenacity that I do find the skills or resources needed to claw my way to proper due process.

      Blake is my new go-to resource. If you don't know what an Appellant Brief, citing an authority, or what a darn pincite means, good. It's a blessing. I hope you never have to. I put in the work. I did the research, I read the Court's rules. I made sure it had their required font, margins, and spacing, but none of that matters if you're not speaking the right "lingo" to the court. To have a smarter-than-me pair of eyeballs read my Statement of the Case and my Arguments to make sure I wasn't about to make a complete fool of myself in front of the Unemployment Agency and their fancy attorneys AND the Judge? I swear on my grandmomma's wok, it's is a relief I cannot truly put into words after I've put together 8 appeal packets entirely by myself before I found this application.

      Thank you, Blake. You've taken such a huge weight off my shoulders that I've been struggling with for so, so long. I feel like I can finally take a breath with this resource in my pocket and focus on my ACTUAL homework. Y'all can keep your pincites on the other side lol. I'd rather try and get an IV in flat veins in a moving ambulance going 70 on the highway hahaha.

      I received an intimidating letter from a person demanding money for an incident that happened. I was not sure of my legal rights. I searched the internet for 2 days, I came across this site several times. I spoke with several lawyers that would not help me. My anxiety and panic started to grow. So I finally went back to the site and answered a few questions. I was connected to a lawyer in minutes.

      With this one phone call, my anxiety and emotional distress was relieved. I wish I had made this my 1st call. My anxiety level went from 10+ to 0 within minutes. My lawyer informed me of the laws in the state I live in (my lawyer also provided me a copy of the code in my state). This person has no legal motion to move forward to serve me with a lawsuit. The letter is null and void. I have nothing to worry about. I HIGHLY recommend calling for professional legal advice. You too can have peace of mind! Call now!!

      Hello Christopher,
