Our Mission
Duty drawback is one of the most underutilized refund programs in international trade. Companies leave millions on the table every year simply because the process is too complex, too manual, and too opaque.
We're building DutyDrawback.ai to change that. By combining deep customs expertise with AI agents that show their work, we're creating a platform that can identify, match, and prepare drawback claims with a level of speed and accuracy that was previously impossible.
The goal is simple: make duty drawback accessible to every importer and exporter, regardless of size or expertise.
