Financial Recovery Strategies and ProfitTrust Launch AI Customs Audit

The platform analyzes historical import data to detect classification errors in Harmonized Tariff Schedule codes and discrepancies in country-of-origin reporting. By leveraging automation, the tool identifies potential refunds that corporations often miss due to the manual complexity of customs compliance. Companies can claim eligible overpayments for up to 300 days by filing Post Summary Corrections with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Vincent Annunziato, a former official who led modernization efforts at the agency, brings his technical background to the platform to ensure accuracy. The service operates on a performance-based model, meaning clients incur no upfront costs and only pay once a refund is successfully issued. The partnership builds on an existing collaboration between the two firms in parcel shipping recovery, aiming to scale their automated auditing services across the broader corporate sector.
