Rate variance
Compare the billed unit rate with the matching contracted rate and effective period.
3PL invoice review / CSV-first
Check 3PL bills against the rate card and Shopify activity.
Map three CSV exports, run deterministic comparisons, and inspect the source rows behind every finding before you export a clarification packet.
Private beta. Files are processed in browser memory; there is no upload endpoint, account, database, or automatic email sender.

Workflow
A review process built around source evidence.
The workspace keeps calculation and judgment separate. Rules produce review candidates; the operator decides what belongs in the final packet.
- 01
Load three CSVs
Add a rate card, invoice-line export, and matching Shopify activity for one billing period.
- 02
Confirm mappings
Map required columns explicitly. Missing financial fields are not guessed from descriptions.
- 03
Review findings
Compare billed, expected, variance, rule ID, confidence, and source-row references together.
- 04
Prepare a packet
Confirm selected rows, then export CSV, print a report, or edit a neutral clarification email.
Current rule set
What the private beta checks.
Each check is designed to be reproducible from mapped fields and preserved input references.
Uncontracted charge
Flag invoice services that have no mapped rate-card rule for operator review.
Duplicate line
Identify repeated invoice references and amounts without deciding whether the duplicate is invalid.
Quantity variance
Compare billable quantities with mapped Shopify activity when supporting evidence exists.
Effective-date mismatch
Separate rate-period issues from ordinary price differences.
Minimum-charge exception
Keep legitimate minimums and missing-data cases out of high-confidence discrepancy totals.
Guardrails
A finding is a request for review, not a legal conclusion.
- The tool does not decide that a charge is unlawful or a contract was breached.
- It does not guarantee credits, savings, recovery, or support for every 3PL format.
- PDF/OCR, carrier freight audit, system integrations, payments, and automatic outreach are outside the current scope.
FAQ
Before you open the workspace.
Does invoice data leave the browser?
Not in the current private beta. CSV parsing and comparisons run in browser memory, with no upload endpoint or saved audit history.
Can it read PDF invoices?
No. The current input contract is CSV-only so mappings and financial calculations remain explicit and reproducible.
Does a finding prove an overcharge?
No. Findings surface a rule comparison and its evidence. A human must verify contract exceptions and source data before contacting a 3PL.
Does it connect directly to Shopify or a WMS?
No. The current version uses exported CSV files and does not request account credentials or API access.
