Company Overview

Pax is a technology company that develops and provides an AI-powered software platform designed to automate and streamline the duty drawback process for businesses. Duty drawback is the refund of customs duties paid on imported goods that are subsequently exported. The company's platform uses AI to handle data collection and validation, maximize refund claims through optimization algorithms, and provide real-time tracking of claims. Pax aims to make these tariff refunds more accessible, particularly for small to medium-sized retailers and manufacturers, helping them recover a percentage of their revenue that often goes unclaimed. Founded in 2024 by Penny Chen and Chris Le, the company is part of the Y Combinator Summer 2024 batch and is headquartered in San Francisco.
