01 / The letter view
The core screen: a scanned notice becomes a spoken summary, a plain-language explanation, and a numbered list of what to do next.
Clara is a prototype I built to make dense official mail readable. Government, health, and financial letters go in as a photo; Claude classifies each one, rewrites it in plain language, reads it aloud, and pulls out the deadlines and the exact steps to take. It is built for caregivers handling mail for someone else, so every screen stays calm, large, and in the reader's own language.

Profile picker, setup, upload, the letter, a filing cabinet of past mail, reminders, and account. The layout, accent, and language switches follow you across every page.
Under the hood. A React prototype with Claude doing the classification and plain-language rewriting, browser text-to-speech for the read-aloud, and a small local store behind it. Reduced-motion and large-type friendly throughout.
