The check lands. $284, six people, and a pitcher nobody remembers ordering. Someone says "just split it evenly." You didn't eat evenly. BillBoss is the modern way to split any expense with friends. Scan a receipt, upload a screenshot of any bill (your Uber, the Airbnb, a digital receipt), or type it in. AI reads every line, tax and tip, and everyone pays back exactly what they owe. Checked to the penny. HOW IT WORKS 1. Scan, upload, or type. A paper receipt, a screenshot of your Uber or Airbnb, any bill. AI reads every item, tax, and tip in seconds. Or add it by hand. 2. Tap what you got. Each item goes to whoever ordered it. Shared plates split evenly. Tax and tip split themselves. 3. Send the split. Friends on BillBoss get their exact number. Everyone else gets a text to download and pay. 4. Get paid back. Their Venmo, Cash App, or Apple Cash opens with the amount filled in. They tap, they pay, they mark it done. WHY BILLBOSS • Scan anything. Not just restaurant receipts. A screenshot, a digital receipt, an Uber, an Airbnb. If it has a total, BillBoss splits it. • Split by item. Everyone pays for exactly what they had, down to the penny. No more "just split it evenly." • Pay any way. Venmo, Cash App, or Apple Cash, prefilled, one tap each. • Lives in the group chat. Send to anyone. Friends without the app get a text and join in seconds. • Never chase again. The friend who forgets gets a gentle nudge. You see the moment everyone pays. COVER THE TABLE Front the bill and you climb. Every dollar you cover adds to your lifetime total, Bronze to BillBoss, on the wall for the whole table to see. The flex was never the bill. It's covering it. BillBoss doesn't hold or move your money. Friends pay each other directly through Venmo, Cash App, or Apple Cash, then mark it done. Your bills stay between you and your friends. No public feed. Cover the table. Get every dollar back.
