How the optimizer works

Our AI engine analyzes your import history and simulates both bond types to find the optimal strategy.

1

Calculate Required Bond

Based on your last 12 months of duties, taxes, and fees, we calculate your CBP-mandated minimum bond amount using the official 10% rule.

Bond = (Duties × 10%) + Rounding
2

Simulate Both Types

We run cost simulations for both Single Entry Bonds (per shipment) and Continuous Bonds (annual) based on your entry frequency.

Single: $X per entry × Count
Continuous: Bond × 1% rate
