One-liner
An app that helps travelers find and claim tax-free shopping receipts, with automatic receipt scanning and real-time refund tracking.
Strengths

- Clear, real-time dashboard showing claimed refunds and pending claims
- Strong integration with major international tax-free shopping programs (e.g., Global Blue, Planet)

- Highly rated for accuracy in identifying eligible purchases
Weaknesses

Opportunities
