For Refund Recovery:
- Inventory Ledger event codes.
- 60 days to claim units lost or damaged in Amazon's warehouses.
- A separate claim window for customer returns damaged by the carrier or Amazon.
- Paid at cost; units found later or already reimbursed don't count.

Frequently asked questions
Who is L-Guard for?
Why pay for this if ChatGPT or Claude can read my files?
- Amazon's limits and 2026 fees, applied by code: 75-character titles, 249-byte Search Terms, the 2026 FBA rate card, fuel surcharge and holiday peak fee.
- Both Search term report formats, every row totaled.
- Inventory Ledger codes and claim windows, with a file-by date on every claim.
- Outputs in the form you file: claim text, Plans of Action, Excel with live formulas.
Amazon now has free Profit Analytics and an AI Seller Assistant. Do I still need L-Guard?

Is my data safe?
- Profit Calculator, Cash Flow Calculator, the listing counter on this page and the free checkers (listing limits, review rule check, POA checker) run only in your browser.
- PPC Audit, Refund Recovery and Restock Planner read your report files in your browser. The raw files are not uploaded.
- Restock Planner sends nothing to an AI provider: the plan is computed in your browser, and only the finished plan (ASIN, SKU, product name and the computed numbers) is saved to your account.
- PPC Audit sends only totals and top rows (the top 50 search terms by spend, up to 30 zero-order search terms and 15 repeated phrases, plus the totals) to our AI provider, Anthropic, which does not use them to train models.
- Refund Recovery saves the claims it found to your account and sends the 20 highest-value claims to Anthropic only when the AI-polished wording option is on.
- Listing Studio, Account Shield, ReviewShield and Fee Optimizer send what you enter (text, or product dimensions, price, category and unit cost), or the listing loaded from Amazon, to Anthropic to write the report.
- The free Chrome extension reads the Seller Central pages you open (account health, inventory, customer reviews, listings) and syncs that data to your account.
- Finished reports are saved to your account so you can reopen them from your dashboard.
