Adjusted Winner (AW) is a procedure for envy-free item allocation. Given two agents and some goods, it returns a partition of the goods between the two agents with the following properties:
For two agents, Adjusted Winner is the only Pareto optimal and equitable procedure that divides at most a single good.

The algorithm has been commercialized through the FairOutcomes website. AW was patented in the United States but that patent has expired.
