Partner With BillionTrace
The Opportunity.
Across all 50 US states, approximately $70 billion in unclaimed property sits in government hands. California alone holds over $24 billion across 92 million records. Every state relies on the same outdated notification system — postal mail and Social Security death records — with no AI, no email matching and no proactive heir identification.
Using Claude AI, Rich Williams identified $90 million in unclaimed California funds in two evenings and cracked a 47-year cold case — extending the heir chain to two living descendants in Germany — in a single morning. These are not estimates. They are verified, documented findings from publicly available government data.
The question this raises is simple: if one person with a laptop can do this in two evenings, what could a properly resourced AI platform do across all 50 states — running continuously, matching millions of records simultaneously, for thousands of institutional subscribers?
BillionTrace.
Here's an expanded version:
BillionTrace.
Rich Williams is the founder of BillionTrace — an AI-powered unclaimed property platform built using Anthropic's Claude AI.
BillionTrace downloads publicly available government unclaimed property databases and uses AI matching to identify unclaimed funds belonging to corporate subscribers — banks, insurers, wealth managers and financial institutions — who pay a monthly subscription fee. The platform delivers results through the subscriber's own branded channels. The end user receives a notification from their bank. They claim directly from the government portal. BillionTrace never touches the money. The end user pays nothing. No commission. Ever. That principle is written into the company constitution as an unamendable clause.
The platform operates across three launch states — California, Texas and New York — representing $46 billion or 66% of all US unclaimed property. Geographic expansion follows constituent pressure from early success driving other state governments to provide data access.
BillionTrace has two tools. Tool 1 is the B2B2C matching engine — cross-referencing government data against subscriber customer databases using fuzzy logic, confidence scoring, and multiple filtering layers including profession keywords, geographic filters, professional title matching, and living versus deceased status routing. Tool 2 is a government claims processing dashboard that helps state agencies process the current 180-day California backlog faster — offered free to all state governments in exchange for the best data access they can provide.
The platform is currently in development. The methodology is proven. The IP filings are in progress. The founding subscriber programme is open.

The Technology Partnership.
BillionTrace is an AI-powered unclaimed property platform currently in development. The proof of concept is already demonstrated — $90 million in unclaimed California funds identified in two evenings using Claude AI, and a 47-year cold case cracked in one morning.
The dataset is publicly available. The methodology is proven. The platform architecture is fully specified and patent pending.
BillionTrace is pursuing a co-development partnership with a strategic AI technology partner — not a vendor relationship, but an equity partnership with a company that understands the scale of what this platform can become.
