Protecting your money

BillGuard, a personal finance security startup recognized by O’Reilly Media as the “2011 Big-Data Startup of the Year”, has developed a groundbreaking new approach to identifying unwanted and unauthorized charges on consumer credit card bills. BillGuard alerts consumers to hidden charges, billing errors, misleading subscriptions, scams and fraud using advanced big-data mining algorithms to harness the collective knowledge of millions of consumers posting billing complaints online and flagging transactions on their electronic bills. With BillGuard, if a charge on your bill is flagged or complained about by anyone else, you also get an alert. This crowdsourcing methodology is similar to that of anti-spam services for email and has yielded great results. BillGuard has saved its users nearly $500,000 in only 4 months of beta testing.
