How it works

You talk. Arik does the paperwork.

Four steps, from your coverage to a sourced, actionable answer. Nothing is guessed: every step is designed so the final answer traces back to something real.

01

Tell Arik your coverage

Commercial or employer, Medicare, Medicaid, or uninsured. This isn't a formality. It changes what's legal to show you. A manufacturer copay card that's fine for a commercially insured patient is a federal Anti-Kickback Statute violation for a Medicare patient, so Arik asks first, before it ever names a program.

02

Ask about a drug, a bill or a denial

For prescriptions, Arik checks every known legal pathway against your situation: manufacturer copay cards, independent foundation grants, cash-pay pricing and government programs where they apply. It doesn't stop at the first match. With Plus, the same goes for bills and denials: every line and every reason gets checked.

03

Get a sourced answer

Every price traces back to a specific, dated source: a manufacturer's own program page, a foundation's fund status, official program terms. If two sources disagree, Arik says so instead of picking one. If nothing has been verified recently enough to trust, it tells you that too.

Why this matters: most tools sound confident about numbers they can't back up. Arik would rather say "this is disputed, here's why" than guess.
04

Act on it, with Arik at your side

If a copay card gets wrongly rejected at the pharmacy, Arik gives you the exact language and billing code to hand the pharmacist, right there. With Plus, Arik drafts the enrollment, dispute or appeal, and sends it once you approve.

Under the hood

How the AI actually works.

Enough to show this is real. Not so much that we hand over the playbook.

Two models, two jobs

A fast model structures and extracts information. A stronger model writes the answer you read. That keeps costs sustainable without cutting corners.

Every fact carries a status

Verified, disputed or unresolved. Arik tells you when something is in the last two, instead of quietly picking a number.

Cross-referenced, not single-sourced

Program terms are checked against official primary sources and independent research passes before anything is shown to a patient.

What we don't publish: the specific source list, verification thresholds and internal scoring. That's the part we've spent the most time getting right, and it's what separates a real answer from a good-sounding one.

Medicare patients never see an illegal card

Arik doesn't just skip the card. It names the law and leads with a better, legal option instead.

When sources disagree, Arik says so

Two pages on the same manufacturer's site listed different figures. Arik shows the conflict instead of picking one and pretending.
