An AI co-pilot that fights US health-insurance prior-authorization denials end-to-end.

Built for the Google I/O Hackathon · May 23, 2026 · San Francisco on the Gemini 3.5 Flash managed-agents stack.

Counterforce + Maxwell coach the patient through the call. We make the call. And n8n keeps fighting for 60 days after.

The problem
60 million Americans get a prior-authorization denial every month (KFF Jan 2026)
70% give up. The average appeal is 6 hours of paperwork + 3 phone calls.
< 1% of denials are appealed. Of those that are, 82% win.
The gap is paperwork — not medicine, not policy, not eligibility. Just paperwork.
