My agent checks every month for money owed to me and my family

He set up a monthly check for himself and his close family. The AI searches state unclaimed property sites and open class action settlements that fit the products and services they use. It found $250 from an old utility company in his name and $1,500 in his mom's name from an insurance company, and it found three class actions he could join and filled out the forms for him. It only pings him when something new shows up.

$1,750

How it works

  1. Search official state unclaimed property databases for his and family names each month
  2. Search MissingMoney.com
  3. Find $250 in his name and $1,500 in his mom's name
  4. Research open class actions that fit his products
  5. Fill out three claim forms
  6. Keep a running list and remind him before deadlines

Why it’s worth knowing

It watches for the whole family, files the class action forms itself, and stays quiet unless something new turns up.
