How to do it, step by step
- Open the ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini app on your phone.
- Tap the camera or attachment button and take a clear photo of the page.
- Ask: "Explain this in plain English. What do I owe, by when, and what do I need to do?"
- Ask follow-up questions about anything still unclear.
- Before you pay or sign anything, double-check with the company or a real person.
Tip: Cover or crop out account numbers and Social Security numbers before you upload a photo.
