I recently learned that billions in class action settlement money goes unclaimed every year because the filing process is intentionally complicated.

Out of curiosity, I started exploring how much could be automated.

I ended up building a small system that:

checks what products/services you use

matches it against open class action settlements

generates the required forms

auto-fills data

digitally signs

and submits the claim

It’s surprising how much of the workflow is repetitive boilerplate.

The whole project is here if you want to see how it works (demo + explanation): https://claim.watch
