The problem

Comparison pages advertise headline rates and bury the fee schedule. The number that matters — what this account costs someone like me in a year — is never shown.

The approach

One fee score computed from monthly fee, overdraft, minimum balance, and out-of-network usage, applied identically to every account so the ranking is defensible. Filters narrow to real constraints, and each row opens into the schedule behind its score.

The result

One ordered list, one comparable annual cost per account, and a breakdown showing exactly where that number came from.

Inside the app

Real screens with branding blurred, or reproduced with anonymized data — no client names, logos, or user identities.

Landing: ZIP-code search over the certified-account roster, with the three standards that define a qualifying account.
Guides index: short explainers on fee standards, certification, and how to find a qualifying account locally.
Account drilldown: annual cost built up fee by fee, beside the full published schedule.
