In their words

Glimpse is the leading AI platform for CPG brands - automating key back office workflows like deductions management, revenue recovery, & cash application to increase operating leverage and put millions of dollars back into a brand's pocket.  Our agents automatically retrieve deduction data, validate charges, automate cash application, and dispute invalid claims to recover lost revenue—often starting with a lookback of the past year of deductions. For a $1B CPG, one agent reviewed 17,000 deductions in under 24 hours (work that would take an FTE ~2 years), identifying $10M+ in revenue and driving meaningful margin expansion. Pricing is simple and incentive-aligned, structured to create clear P&L impact from day one.
