The check lands. $395.62, seven people, and a pitcher nobody remembers ordering. Someone says "just split it evenly." You didn't eat evenly. Snap the receipt. Tap what you got. Get paid back. AI reads every item, tax and tip in seconds. Each person pays for exactly what they had, and everyone gets one exact number. Checked to the penny. HOW IT WORKS 1. Snap, upload or type. A paper receipt, a screenshot of any bill, or items added by hand. AI reads every line in seconds. 2. Tap who had what. Each item goes to whoever ordered it. Shared plates split evenly, to the cent. 3. Tax and tip split themselves. Matched to what each person ordered. Can't agree on the tip? Settle it with the Tip Game. 4. Send the split. Friends on BillBoss get their exact share in the app. Everyone else gets a text from you to open it. 5. Get paid back. Venmo and Cash App open with your handle and the exact amount filled in. Apple Cash opens Messages with the amount copied, ready to paste. They pay, then mark it paid. WHY BILLBOSS • Split by item. Everyone pays for what they had. No more "just split it evenly." • One tap to pay. Venmo, Cash App or Apple Cash, with the amount ready. • No chasing. Whoever hasn't paid gets a reminder each day until they do. Nudge someone yourself, or turn reminders off anytime. • Know the moment you're paid. A notification lands when a friend pays you back, and the split closes itself once everyone has. • Change of plans? Edit a split after you send it, and friends on BillBoss see the update. Or cancel it. • Your record of covering the table. Home tracks what you've spent, the friends you split with, and every time you covered the bill. THE GROUP CHAT VS BILLBOSS The group chat: a blurry photo of the receipt, calculator math, "wait, what did I order?", and two weeks of chasing. BillBoss: one scan, everyone's exact number, paid back in one tap. BillBoss doesn't hold or move your money. Friends pay you directly through Venmo, Cash App or Apple Cash, then mark it paid. Your splits stay between you and your friends. No public feed. Sign in with your phone number. Apple Cash is available in the US. Cover the table. Get every dollar back.
