Explain my situation and find the welfare payments I can claim

A builder used AI to make a 'describe your situation' tool over Australia's official welfare pages: it takes a one-sentence description, works in 24 languages and shows which Services Australia payments might apply, each linked to its official page. Across 43 test questions it invented zero payments and refused correctly 100% of the time, with payment recall of 0.76.

How it works

  1. Index 379 official Services Australia pages locally
  2. Rewrite the user's one-sentence situation into page language with Haiku
  3. Generate an answer with Sonnet
  4. Run six verification checks that reject any unverified line, amount, claim status or personal detail
  5. Return matching payments with official links and last-updated dates

Why it’s worth knowing

It answers benefit questions in 24 languages from official pages only — and its checks refuse to ever state an amount.
