Margin recovery for Amazon 1P vendors
We find and recover the margin Amazon quietly takes, then fix the operation so it stops. Chargebacks, shortage claims, price claims, and co-op deductions come off your remittance in lines most finance teams never reconcile.
Industry estimates put typical 1P leakage at 1.5% to 4% of PO volume. On $25M of annual PO volume, that is $375,000 to $1,000,000 a year. Much of it is recoverable.
A senior operator, not a support ticket
The recovery tools consolidated into one automated platform that treats you as a ticket in a lock-in contract. You get a named operator who manages the disputes and sits with your finance team. No lock-in.
We fix the leak, not just flag it
Software flags recurring errors and bills its cut even on claims Amazon auto-corrects. We trace root cause so the deduction line actually falls, and we don't bill you for money Amazon was going to refund anyway.
AI transformation that ships as working systems
The AI practice is run by an operator who builds agentic workflows and RAG systems himself. Our own delivery runs on them, from deduction scanning to dispute preparation, and that is the proof point: we sell what we use.
Client engagements ship the same way. AI-readiness assessment, use-case prioritization, and agentic workflow builds, with the governance and training that make adoption stick. You get systems your team runs without us.
One operating standard
We have sat on both sides of the Amazon table: inside as a Vendor Manager and P&L owner, outside advising some of the world's most recognized brands. Every engagement runs on the same standard: productized methods, not founder hours. Working systems, not slide decks. Results measured in dollars.

We read the Amazon P&L the way Amazon does
CRAP flags, stop-orders, and de-lists are calls we made from the inside. The same read covers contra-COGS, co-op, and your true profitability beyond Net PPM.
Recovery is the door, not the ceiling
Once the leak is fixed, the same operator takes on your broader Amazon, eCommerce, and AI work.
