We placed 3rd at the Hermes Buildathon (GrowthX) this weekend - and built the whole thing in 5 hours. When a family member needs surgery, one person ends up as the project manager - calling hospitals, trying to decode the insurance policy, chasing claims, updating everyone. My family's been through it. It's exhausting. So we built Astra: a team of AI agents that just… does that job. A report hits your inbox, and it kicks off on its own - reads your actual policy and documents, finds hospitals near you, checks what your insurance really covers, files the claim over email, and calls the family with a voice update. Real actions, not a demo with fake buttons. Runs on the Hermes Agent (Nous Research) + GPT-5.6 Sol, Convex on the backend. All in one 5-hour sprint. Still rough around the edges, but watching every agent complete a full journey end-to-end - and placing 3rd - was a hell of a way to end the day.
