25 invoices. 48 business hours. You’ll know exactly what your carriers owe you.
A scored Invoice Health Report for $750 — credited in full if you sign the recovery agreement within 30 days, refunded if we find less than $750 of disputable charges.
No carrier is contacted. No recovery agreement required. You keep the report either way.
Report within 48 business hours of a complete folder. Credit applies if you sign the recovery agreement within 30 days. Refund applies to batches with at least 10 demurrage, detention, per diem or chassis invoices and is measured on the report’s disputable total.
What you get
Health Score 0–100
One number your CFO understands: how clean (or leaky) your freight billing is, scored across every invoice in the batch.
Every error, with the rule and the dollar amount
Each finding cites the exact FMC rule (46 CFR Part 541), contract clause or duplicate pattern — and what it is worth.
Disputable vs. needs-evidence — we never inflate
We separate what is claimable today from what needs one more document, so the totals are ones you can act on.
What to fix in your AP process
The two or three process changes that stop the same overcharges from coming back next quarter.
Industry estimates: 3–12% of ocean freight invoices contain errors.

What to send
- Send
- Up to 25 invoices from the last 12 months · ocean, demurrage, detention, per diem, chassis, drayage, LTL, parcel · paid or unpaid · at least 10 D&D / per diem / chassis invoices for the refund guarantee to apply.
- Helps if you have it
- Rate confirmations, service contracts or NVOCC quotes · BLs or arrival notices · an AP export showing what was paid when.
Upload is by private Google Drive folder (shared to your email only) or by reply to our confirmation email. Files are stored on US-hosted systems and deleted on request 90 days after we finish.
Price, credit, guarantee
- $750 flat
- Paid once, by card, Link or bank debit. No subscription, no hourly meter.
- Credited 100%
- Against our 35% contingency fee if you sign the recovery agreement within 30 days.
- Refunded in full
- If the report shows less than $750 of disputable charges — and you keep the report.
Guarantee is measured on the report’s disputable total, not on any later recovery, and applies to batches with at least 10 demurrage/detention/per diem or chassis invoices.
Is this for you?
For you if
- You pay ocean, D&D, per diem, chassis or drayage invoices and nobody audits them line by line.
- You want a fast, fixed-price answer before committing to a full recovery engagement.
- Your CFO wants numbers and rule citations, not a sales pitch.
- You have at least 10 D&D / per diem / chassis invoices from the last 12 months.
Not for you if
- You want us to dispute these charges with the carrier this week — that is the free Recovery Audit, not this report.
- Your invoices are scanned images with no text and you can't export them (tell us — we'll advise first).
- You need legal advice on a live legal proceeding — we are auditors, not a law firm.
- You ship fewer than ~20 containers a year — run the free single-invoice D&D check instead, and we'll tell you honestly whether an audit is worth it.

Health Check FAQ
Why pay $750 when the full audit is free?
Speed and scope. The free Recovery Audit covers 12 months and runs on our timeline over ~5 business days plus intake. The Health Check is 48 business hours on a batch you choose, produces a standalone scored report you own either way, and the $750 is credited in full if you proceed to recovery within 30 days — so if there is money to recover, it effectively costs nothing.
What does “disputable” mean?
A charge where the invoice or the record fails a specific rule — a missing 46 CFR §541.6 element, a late-issued invoice under §541.7, a rate above your contract, a duplicate, an accessorial with no basis — such that a written dispute has a documented ground. “Needs evidence” items are listed separately with exactly what document would confirm them.
Do you contact my carriers?
No. Not in this product. The Health Check is analysis only. Carriers are contacted only if you separately sign the recovery engagement — and then only with your written authorization.
What if my invoices are clean?
If the report shows less than $750 of disputable charges, the $750 is refunded and you keep the report — a written confirmation that your billing was clean for the batch is worth having. The guarantee applies to batches with at least 10 D&D, per diem or chassis invoices.
Can I send more than 25 invoices?
The Health Check is capped at 25 so the 48-business-hour turnaround is honest. For more, either run a second Health Check on the next batch or go straight to the free 12-month Recovery Audit, which has no cap.
Is this legal advice?
No. FreightAudit Pilot is a commercial audit service of HDC Brands LLC, not a law firm; nothing in the report is legal advice, and for legal questions you should confirm with counsel. The report gives you the factual and regulatory grounds a dispute would rely on.
