Nick Grous, an investment analyst at ARK Invest, asked Meta's Muse agent to search the internet for money that might belong to him. Muse returned a list of unclaimed property and funds under his name and helped complete much of the paperwork. Grous then filed the official claim himself.
Muse found more than $1,500 in about five minutes. Grous had not received any money when the article ran, because government offices still have to verify and approve the claim.
Approval isn't guaranteed. You still verify and submit the claim yourself, and Muse asks permission before sensitive actions such as sending email. Muse was US-only at launch.
Search the official unclaimed property sites for [state(s) I have lived in] and [national site if relevant] using my name [full name] and variations like [maiden name, nicknames, old addresses]. List every match with the amount, holder and state. For any claim, walk me through the paperwork, prefill what you can, and pause to show me the form before submitting anything or entering my SSN.
