Benefits finder for seniors aging into programs they'll never find alone

Nobody sits you down at 65 and says here's what you're owed. Prescription subsidies live in one agency. Tax exemptions in another. Survivor benefits behind a form that takes an hour to find and ten minutes to fill out. Each program was funded, approved, and published separately, with zero connection to the others. What could add up to thousands a year in benefits stays unclaimed because the instructions were never written. Benefits Found connects what governments never did. Enter age, income, zip code, veteran status, and housing situation. The platform matches that profile against federal, state, and local programs simultaneously and returns what someone qualifies for, how much it's worth, and where to apply. A 72-year-old widow in Ohio discovers $6,000 a year she didn't know was waiting. A caregiver who spent a Saturday on government websites gets the same answers before lunch. Eligibility rules are already public on SSA.gov, VA.gov, and state revenue sites. Scrape them and parse into decision-tree logic so a ten-field intake form can determine 80% of qualification: age, income, veteran status, marital status, homeownership, zip code. Connect to the Benefits.gov API for federal matching and store everything in Supabase. Test with five seniors at one home care agency. Sit with them while they use it, watch where they hesitate, and refine until the output is worth handing to a client. Free for individual users. $49/month unlocks unlimited searches and application tracking for caregivers managing multiple clients. Agencies pay $300/month for a dashboard that checks new clients on autopilot. One caregiver runs a search and finds thousands waiting. She tells her agency. The agency wants it for every intake. That's how it spreads: home care agencies, discharge planners, senior living facilities, elder law attorneys. Ten thousand Americans turn 65 every day. The backlog grows faster than anyone can serve it by hand.
