We match California’s unclaimed property to the people it belongs to.

The State Controller publishes every forgotten account, paycheck and refund it holds. Our software reads that public dataset, finds the owner and prepares the claim.

  • No fee unless you are paid
  • You sign every step
  • The state pays you directly

From public record to paid claim

We find the record.

California publishes its unclaimed property as an open dataset, refreshed every week. Our pipeline parses it, normalizes names and addresses, and links each record to its likely owner.

Names, street addresses, emails and phone numbers are redacted before any AI model reads a record.

You check what we found.

We write to you with what the record shows: the kind of property, the amount, and the company that handed it to the state. You decide whether it is yours and whether you want our help. Nothing is filed without your signature.

Not yours, or not interested? Tell us and we delete what we hold about you.

You sign, the state pays you.

We prepare the claim on the State Controller’s own forms and you post it yourself. The state decides the claim and pays you directly. Our fee is at most 10% of what it pays, and nothing if it does not.

What you tell us for a claim is never sold or passed to advertisers or data brokers.

Your data

An AI model helps us read the file. It never sees your name or your street address.

Questions people ask

Is the letter I received really from you?

Email us your name and the address the letter was sent to, and we will confirm that the letter is ours.

Do I pay anything up front?

No. Our fee is set in a written agreement before anything is filed, and it is owed only if the state pays your claim.

What will you ask me for?

A signature on our agreement and on the State Controller’s claim form. The state asks for the form to be notarized when the property is worth $1,000 or more, or includes securities or a safe deposit box.

How long does a claim take?

The State Controller’s Office says it considers a claim within 180 days of receiving complete paperwork.

Do you work outside California?

Not yet. We read California’s list only.

Had a letter from us, or think the state holds something of yours?

Either way, it starts with an email.
