Most deduction tools check invoices against generic matching rules. That tells your team a deduction exists. It doesn't tell them whether it was authorized. The team still pulls the original promotional contract, finds the trade calendar event, and works through it line by line to confirm whether the amount matches what was committed.TrewValidate matches every deduction line from UNFI, KeHE, and Kroger against the specific promotional contract and trade calendar event your team submitted. The match happens at the item level, not the invoice level. Finance and Sales see, for each line, whether the deduction was authorized and which contract supports the answer.Both teams get the same result: confidence that every deduction decision is backed by the actual contract, not a guess. Whether you're moving off spreadsheets or off an enterprise platform that doesn't fit your team, the underlying question is identical: Did this deduction match what we agreed to, or didn't it?

TrewUp connects distributor data from UNFI, KeHE, and Kroger, automates deduction processing, and delivers ROI by retailer and SKU. Your Finance and Sales teams act on validated actuals instead of waiting on month-end reports. One live dashboard. One shared source of truth.
We pull deduction and depletion data directly from UNFI, KeHE, and Kroger portals every day. No manual export or portal-hopping required. We categorize each charge by reason code, tie it back to the contract that authorized it, and surface it in a shared dashboard for Finance and Sales. You see margin impact develop in real time, not at month-end close.


Our proprietary document reader extracts every line from deduction PDFs, portal backups, and remittance files. It converts that data into structured, GL-ready output. Finance builds accruals on validated numbers instead of estimates. Sales plans the next promotion using actuals from the last one, not gut feel.
TrewUp gives Finance, Sales, and Accounting teams a single live view from day one. Deductions are categorized automatically. Payments match to invoices without manual entry. ROI updates daily by promotion, retailer, and SKU. Every team works from the same validated data, whether they're closing the books or planning the next promotion.
Once TrewValidate matches confirmed deductions to depletions, the same data shows you what drove volume, what burned margin, and where to put the next trade dollar. Finance gets clean numbers for close. Sales gets retailer-level context for the next promotion. Both work from the same source of truth.
TrewUp pulls deduction data from PDFs, portal backups, and remittance files, then categorizes each line by reason code, retailer, and SKU. Your team stops keying line items by hand and starts validating charges in minutes instead of hours.

Live dashboards update daily and let you drill from brand-level totals down to individual SKUs, retailers, and promotions. Finance answers leadership questions without building custom reports. Sales sees how the last promotion performed before planning the next one.

We connect deduction history with depletion data so every promotion gets evaluated on real secondary sales, not projections. Sales sees which retailers and SKUs drove incremental volume, which just shifted timing, and which ones burn margin every cycle.

Prebuilt connections to UNFI, KeHE, and Kroger get your data flowing on day one. No custom build, no ERP, and no IT project required. GL-ready output exports cleanly into QuickBooks, NetSuite, or whatever accounting system your finance team already uses.

TrewUp goes live in two weeks. Finance and Sales lead the rollout. Prebuilt connections to UNFI, KeHE, and Kroger get data flowing on day one, and you get 12 months of historical data immediately. Your team has validated deduction and depletion data before the end of the first month.

Out of the box, TrewUp connects to UNFI, KeHE, and Kroger. These three distributors cover the majority of deduction volume for the mid-market CPG brands we serve, which is why we built native connections to them first. We add new distributor and retailer connections as customer demand makes them a priority.
We're honest about scope during evaluation. If your deduction volume is concentrated outside UNFI, KeHE, and Kroger, talk with our team before committing. We'd rather tell you upfront whether we're the right fit than discover it after onboarding.
TrewUp's proprietary AI is built specifically for CPG trade spend and financial operations. It extracts deductions from distributor PDFs and portals, categorizes them, reconciles them for the general ledger, and surfaces retailer-level visibility.
Our AI contract matching checks every line item deduction against the original promotional contract and flags discrepancies before they hit the GL. Our document reader extracts the full line-level detail from PDFs, images, and portal backup. Historical trend analysis surfaces repeat patterns by retailer, reason code, and SKU so you fix the cause, not just the symptom.
TrewUp complements a Trade Promotion Management (TPM) platform. It doesn't replace one. TPM software handles planning: what you intend to spend on a promotion. TrewUp handles actuals: what the distributor actually deducted, what the promotion really cost, and what the margin impact looked like by retailer and SKU. Brands run both side by side.
Our Emerging tier starts at $599 per month for brands with up to $2M in combined annual revenue moving through UNFI, KeHE, and Kroger. All tiers are month-to-month, so you don't sign a long-term contract to get started. Brands above $2M in combined distributor revenue fall into our SMB or Enterprise tiers. Talk with our team for pricing at those levels.
Every tier includes 12 months of historical deduction data at onboarding, live support, and ongoing account management. See our TrewUp pricing page for the full tier breakdown.
Yes. TrewUp connects directly to your distributor data from UNFI, KeHE, and Kroger. We don't require an ERP or TPM as a prerequisite. Your GL-ready output flows into QuickBooks or NetSuite when you're ready. Most of our customers are mid-market brands who've outgrown spreadsheets but haven't taken on enterprise infrastructure yet.
A deduction management system like TrewUp handles the workflow CPG Finance teams use to process deductions taken by distributors and retailers. That includes AI to automatically extract deduction details from distributor PDFs and portals, categorize each deduction by reason code and customer, match deductions back to the promotional contracts or trade calendar events that authorized them, and produce GL-ready output for accounting.
The goal is to replace manual reconciliation across spreadsheets, PDFs, and email with a structured process that closes faster and produces audit-ready records
Two weeks to live, and the work sits on our side. Our team handles the distributor connections, pulls 12 months of historical deductions at onboarding, and configures the dashboards. Licensing is month-to-month, so there's no annual commitment to evaluate the platform. Pricing starts at $599/month for our Emerging tier. Every tier includes live support and ongoing account management. See our TrewUp pricing page for the full breakdown.
A deduction is a charge a distributor or retailer takes against an invoice, typically for a promotion, billback, chargeback, or logistics charge. Deductions are a normal construct of the CPG operating model. A dispute is what happens after Finance determines a deduction was invalid: an outreach to the distributor requesting the funds back, with the contract or backup as supporting evidence.
Not every deduction becomes a dispute. Most are valid against the promotional terms agreed to upfront. TrewValidate tells your team, line by line, which deductions match the contract and which don't, so disputes are filed on real evidence and inside the dispute window.
We match every deduction against the originating contract and tag it by reason code, type, and customer. Our AI flags anomalies and duplicates before they reach your books. Your team reviews a prioritized queue, not a raw data dump. Each deduction carries a full audit trail back to the source file, so Accounting verifies any line item.
TrewUp was designed from the ground up for CPG brands with lean Finance teams. The workflows, implementation model, and pricing all reflect how a 10–30 person organization actually operates. We don't require an ERP, a TPM, a dedicated IT team, or a months-long onboarding project.
You launch with one distributor and expand as you scale. That’s because we built TrewUp to be a smooth, intuitive experience that gets teams up and running fast. If you've evaluated enterprise platforms and concluded they're built for a larger team than yours, that's the gap we built for.
If your Finance team is still matching deductions to contracts by hand, the dispute window is closing while your team is still in the PDF. TrewUp gives Controllers and Finance leads at mid-market CPG brands a faster, more accurate path to close.
