Reclaim Revenue.
Automate Deductions.

The Problem

Manual deductions processes can't keep pace with algorithmic retailers.

Retailers and marketplaces now issue deductions at machine speed. Finance teams with spreadsheets and static ERPs fall behind within days — and the dispute window closes before the claim is even coded.

01

Algorithmic Overload

Retailers issue thousands of deductions per month per brand — algorithmically. Manual AR teams cannot review, validate, or dispute them in time. The window closes before the claim is even coded.

02

Revenue Leakage

Without AI-powered pattern analysis, brands cannot identify which deductions are invalid — and millions in owed cash slip through every quarter. Most teams don't know what they're losing until the audit.

03

Root Cause Blindness

Siloed ERPs, TMS, and retailer portals make it impossible to trace deductions to their origin. The same mistakes — labeling, ASN errors, compliance — keep costing you, quarter after quarter.
