Tariff refund recovery
Your refund window isn't open forever.
Upload your CBP Form 7501s and Corvant reads every line, validates it against the CAPE rules, and lays out precisely what you can recover — and by when. No spreadsheets, no guessing which entries still qualify, no silent rejections.
What quietly goes wrong
Three ways a refund claim dies quietly.
01 · Wrong filer
Only one party can file.
CBP accepts a CAPE declaration only from the original filer — you as importer of record, or the broker who filed your entries. A third party who never touched the entry gets rejected. Pick the wrong filer and the claim never moves.
02 · Silent bounce
The refund can bounce silently.
Refund banking has to be authorized before the declaration goes in. Skip it and CBP can accept the filing while the money never arrives — no error, no flag, just a refund that quietly fails to land.
03 · Short window
The window is short.
Phase 1 covers entries that are unliquidated or inside the reliquidation window. Miss it and the claim drops to the slower protest track. Knowing which of your entries sits where is the whole game.

CAPE windows closing in under 30 days
Surfaced the moment your entries are parsed — before the protest track is your only option.
How Corvant works
Drop in your 7501s. Get back a validated claim.
Corvant uses cutting-edge AI vision recognition to read every line off your CBP Form 7501s — HTS codes, country of origin, entered values, duties paid, entry and liquidation dates — the moment you upload them. No manual keying. Hundreds of entries resolve in the time it takes to drag them in.
From there the engine does the analysis a customs specialist would, at speed: it checks each entry's liquidation status, sorts what's inside the CAPE window from what's headed to the protest track, flags what's litigatable, and validates every entry against the exact format CBP's portal accepts — so nothing bounces on a stray column or a wrong filer code.

Pre-validation
It won't let you file a broken claim.
Every entry runs through validation before anything leaves the platform. Blocking issues are surfaced per entry with plain-language reasons; you resolve them, and the claim only exports once it's clean.
The pre-validation gate is the product — it's the difference between a refund that lands and one that silently fails.
The reconciliation wedge · live
Never file the same entry twice.
Upload the results CBP already accepted and Corvant reconciles them against your entry universe — subtracting what's filed from what's owed. What's left is the real remainder: the entries still worth pursuing, with the duplicates stripped out. No double filings, no chasing money that's already in motion.
