Wait, Did That Get Charged Twice?
Sometimes a card gets charged twice for the same thing by accident. Or a tip gets typed wrong and ten dollars becomes a hundred.
AI watches for those weird patterns. Two identical charges in two seconds? That's likely a double. A huge tip on a small bill? Worth checking.
Mistakes the AI can flag
- Same store, same amount, twice in a row
- A tip that's larger than the meal
- A subscription that already cancelled
The big idea: AI helps catch money mistakes early. The catch is fast, but a person still has to fix it.
