CommonWell
An AI helper that fills in unemployment and Medicaid applications with New Yorkers who just lost a job.
Best overallThe problem
Applying for unemployment or Medicaid for the first time is confusing, and the paperwork you need is scattered across your inbox.
What they built
With your permission, it finds the payslips and letters already in your inbox, checks the agency’s real rules and fills in the application with you. Nothing is sent without your OK, and it texts you updates. It works start to finish on their live site; the agency side is simulated for the demo.
