Every American should know every benefit they qualify for.
$80 billion in federal benefits go unclaimed every year — not because people don't need them, but because the paperwork is hostile, the rules differ by state, and the agencies don't talk to each other. UnifiedAid is the front door we wish existed when our families needed help: clear, secure, free where it matters, and always independent of the government.
Six promises about your data.
Benefits applications are some of the most sensitive paperwork you'll ever fill out. Here's exactly what we do — and don't do — with the information you share with us.
When you save a Pre-Submission Review, we strip SSNs, phone numbers, full addresses, and exact incomes before storage. Income and assets are converted to ranges (e.g., $2,000–$2,500). You re-enter the precise values before submitting your real application — they never touch our database.
Not to advertisers, not to data brokers, not to insurance companies, not to anyone. CCPA-compliant. Read our full Privacy Policy.
UnifiedAid is an independent benefits-discovery and application-help platform. We always link you to the official agency for application and final approval. We never share information with ICE.
Stripe processes payments. Anthropic's Claude powers our AI reviewer. Resend handles email. Sentry catches errors. MongoDB stores accounts and saved reviews. That's the whole list.
Our AI gives you a confidence score and plain-English feedback to catch mistakes BEFORE you submit. We never guarantee approval. The state or federal agency makes the final call.
An automated freshness checker compares each program's eligibility rules and apply URLs against the official source every week. When agencies change rules, our pages update — and you can flag anything stale.
Four things you can hold us to.
No legalese. We translate government-speak into 8th-grade English so anyone — student, senior, single parent, ESL — can navigate benefits without a lawyer.
Eligibility check, program browsing, pre-submission review, and our AI helper are all free. Forever. We make money on optional Premium features (AI form-fill, recert reminders) — not your data.
Spanish translations, a no-SSN-required pathway, immigration-safe program labels, and partnerships with Legal Aid for appeals. Universal benefits coverage means everyone.
Every program page has a 'Report outdated info' button. Every chat has a 'open a ticket' fallback. Every email reply goes to a real address. You hold us accountable; we keep ourselves honest.
