BillRadar — Demo video

BillRadar checks hospital bills and insurance statements, finds errors and the financial help a family is owed, and walks the family through to the letter and the phone call. I gave birth twice at the same hospital. For the first birth, in 2024, I paid $7,683. For the second, in 2026, I paid $847. The difference, more than $6,800, came from one line in the bill about financial assistance. My small Telegram bot found it. I didn't believe it, so it showed me the law. I was approved for an 83% discount. The same line was in the 2024 bill, and back then I never noticed it. That's why I'm building BillRadar: a family shouldn't pay thousands just because nobody read one line. Dollar For estimates that US hospitals bill patients about $14 billion a year that should have been written off as charity care (Dollar For, 2024). What works: 1. Capture. You film the stack or take a photo. SAM 3.1 finds every sheet and follows it through the video frames. Muse Spark reads all the sheets in one request, so code can link them: for example, it finds that the same service was billed twice. 2. Privacy. On your computer, Muse Glimmer reads every sheet, and your family's names, IDs, addresses and account numbers are covered before any readable sheet goes to the cloud. 3. Findings with proof. Duplicates and line errors, a service billed to the wrong person, out-of-network doctors, the hospital's financial assistance and its deadline. Every finding names the sheet behind it, and every dollar amount traces back to a printed figure. Separate code recomputes every amount, then Muse Wonder rereads the whole case. 4. Letters. Code puts together the letters and the financial assistance application. In a recorded run, an agent on Muse Spark fills out an appeal on a copy of the insurer's portal and stops before submitting. You send it. 5. The call. With both sides' consent, BillRadar listens and suggests what to say, citing the hospital's policy and the law. 6. Easy for anyone. Plain language, letters translated into Spanish or Russian so you can read them, and the bill as one picture from Muse Image. BillRadar doesn't give medical or legal advice; a person decides and sends. Built during the hackathon. Before the start on October 26 at 12:24 PM ET, there was the idea, the name, the logo, research and early code drafts. The code was rewritten during the hackathon; what still traces back to the drafts is listed in docs/RESIDUE.md. The demo uses fictional data. How we tested it. A 14-sheet example, captured both as a photo and as a video, gave the same total, $1,596.53. In none of our runs, including sealed packs whose answer keys no one on the team saw, did BillRadar show a wrong dollar amount.
