The $15B Problem No One's Talking About (And How I'm Fixing It)
Holy shit. I've started a lot of companies, but this one gets me FIRED UP in a different way.

Holy shit. I've started a lot of companies, but this one gets me FIRED UP in a different way.
Today I'm announcing my most ambitious venture yet: Evana - the first AI platform that gets your import duties refunded on auto-pilot.
You're probably thinking, "Wait, what? Import duties can get refunded?"
EXACTLY. That was my reaction too.
Listen, here's the crazy part - billions of dollars in legitimate duty refunds are left unclaimed every year because merchants just pay their duties and never think about it again. It's literally leaving money on the table.
(And if there's one thing I hate more than lukewarm coffee, it's leaving money on the damn table.)
The Problem No One's Solving
Most e-commerce founders and import businesses are focused on growth, marketing, supply chain - the sexy stuff. Meanwhile, they're hemorrhaging cash on duties they could legally get back.
There are DOZENS of reasons you're eligible for duty refunds:
Damaged merchandise (happens all the time)
International orders (yep, double taxation is a thing)
Donated or destroyed merchandise
Incorrect classification codes
And about 20 more technical reasons your eyes would glaze over reading
How I Stumbled Into This $15B Opportunity
It started with a random tweet. I saw Sean Frank from Ridge wallet mention getting refunds on import duties.
My ears perked up. What refunds?
Naturally, I started peeling back this onion. The more I dug, the more insane this got. Between $5B and $15B in eligible duty refunds go unclaimed EVERY YEAR.
And guess who's missing out the most? Small and mid-sized businesses who don't have the resources to navigate this complex process.
THAT'S WHEN IT HIT ME. This is a massive problem begging for a solution. This is Evana.
The Early Results Are Mind-Blowing
We're just getting started, but the numbers are already ridiculous:
One business is getting $465,000 back
Another is receiving $1,567,000
And our biggest claim yet? Let's just say it makes those look tiny
All from money they were LEGALLY entitled to but had no idea how to claim.
How Evana Works (It's Stupid Simple)
Our AI scans your import history going back 5 YEARS
We identify exactly how much you're owed
We process every claim
You get money back
We take a cut of what we recover (no recovery = no fee)
That's it. We handle the mind-numbing paperwork, follow-ups, and bureaucratic bullshit so you don't have to.
Join The Waitlist Today
We're onboarding our first 100 customers now, and the results are blowing my mind.
Want to see how much you're owed? Join our waitlist for free. We'll run the numbers, show you exactly what you're eligible for, and you only pay when we actually recover money for you.
This is the definition of no-brainer.
One More Thing...
I can't announce this officially yet, but my co-founder on this venture is a BEAST in the business world. This guy built a $1B company in just 5 years.
(And no, I'm not exaggerating that number.)
He's one of the most impressive entrepreneurs I've ever met, and we'll be making the official announcement in the coming weeks.
Let's just say when this person gets involved in something, people pay attention. And for good reason.
Stay tuned. This is going to be big.
Let's get your money back,
Parker Burr
P.S. If you're importing goods into the country and NOT using Evana, you're basically setting cash on fire. Just saying.
