Tell rail passengers if a delayed journey qualifies for Delay Repay and where to claim

More than £80m of rail delay compensation goes unclaimed every year, partly because only 31% of passengers say they are told they can claim. Every operator has its own thresholds and its own form. Build a tool where you enter a journey and get a yes or no, the likely refund, and a link to the right claim page.

Once solved, this helps commuters.
