Live system · nothing here is a mockup

A five-minute tour of Recoup.

This walks you through a real backlog — a mid-sized specialty food brand in Portland selling into three chains, with a few months of deductions already loaded. Open each screen and see for yourself. It takes about five minutes and you do not need to talk to anyone.

  1. Start with the two numbers that matter

    The overview is not a dashboard of vanity metrics. It answers what is still on the table and what has already slipped away.

    Look at: $9.4k recoverable across 35 open deductions — and beside it, $1.8k that timed out. The second number is the real one. That money was recoverable, the dispute window closed, and it is gone. It stays on the page on purpose: it is what the habit of writing off small deductions costs per quarter. Open the overview →
  2. Open the deductions you decided were too small to chase

    Every company has an amount below which nobody researches — $150, $250, whatever it is. Nobody has ever added that number up.

    Look at: 15 deductions under $150 each, $1,055.82 together — and $413.32 of it recoverable. Note the mix: some are recoverable in full, some are simply valid, some cannot be answered from what is on file. The tool does not say "dispute everything". That is the point of it. Open the below-threshold queue →
  3. Now the row at the top of the queue

    The desk is ordered by money at risk per remaining day, not by date. The first row is D-88207 — a $4,900 promotional billback from Halloway Markets. Open it.

    Look at: $4,340 recoverable, and the sentence explaining why — "Cap of $2,500.00 leaves $560.00, claimed $4,900.00." The deal was capped at $2,500 and $1,940 has already been billed against it. The rate alone would allow $780 on this shipment; the cap leaves $560. Rate and cap are two ceilings on the same money, and the engine takes the lower one. Add them together and you claim the same dollar twice — which is how a dispute gets refused on principle. Open the desk →
  4. Read the dispute it writes

    Same row, then Open the packet. This is what you paste into the retailer's portal or send to their AP contact.

    Look at: the amount is at the top, and the $560 you accept is conceded before the disputed balance — not buried at the end. The delivery is cited by the retailer's own reference, "Signed POD-40125 by R. Alvarez", because that is the number their clerk can look up. Plain text on purpose: most portals are a single textarea.
    AMOUNT CLAIMED: $4,340.00
    
    We accept $560.00 of this deduction. The balance of
    $4,340.00 is disputed on the following grounds.
    
    1. Cap of $2,500.00 leaves $560.00, claimed $4,900.00
       $1,940.00 has already been claimed against "Summer endcap
       — preserves", which we agreed with Alicia Fenn (buyer)
       would be capped at $2,500.00. Even at the full rate this
       shipment only supports $780.00, and the cap leaves less.
  5. Finish where most tools cheat

    The last queue is the one that proves the engine is honest.

    Look at: 10 deductions worth $2,297.05 marked "needs research" — a missing purchase order, an unrecorded price, a reason code nobody has mapped. They are not valid; they are unproven. No signed delivery receipt means "cannot tell", never "valid" — because a wrong "valid" writes off real money silently, and that is the entire reason this exists. Open the research queue →

What it does not do

No EDI (810/812/852) integration, no accounting or ERP connection, no document upload and storage, no automatic filing into retailer portals. Deductions go in by paste or file — any column order, it reads the headers, and it reports the lines it could not read by line number instead of guessing. If EDI is a hard requirement today, this is not the right tool yet, and I would rather you knew that from a web page than from a call.

If you want it on your own domain

$4,800 one time. No subscription. First working version in five working days.

For comparison: deduction recovery firms work on 25–35% of what they recover, every year, and commission only pays them to chase the large claims. A brand recovering $20,000 a year pays them $5,000–7,000 a year. This is paid once, covers the whole tail, and runs on your own instance.

You get a perpetual licence to use and modify your instance, and a dedicated one — your data is never pooled with another customer's. Hosting and nightly backups are included for the first 30 days; after that either I keep it running for $99 a month, or I hand you the database, the source and the setup notes to run it anywhere. No lock-in either way. Reply with one question about your own remittances and you will get a straight answer the same day, including if this is not the right fit for you.
