$40,000+ Productivity gained per customs broker

The only platform that combines intelligent compliance reasoning with entry writing

AI writes and enriches the entry. Your broker signs off on it and files. Your customer validates and views.

  • Compliance Determination

    Classification and automated duty calculation on every line, returned with the GRIs and CROSS rulings behind each call. New products get classified inside the workflow, and brokers are supported through the new Foreign Importer requirements.

  • Agentic Entry Writing

    Altana's AI reads the packet and drafts the import declaration. PGAs, 232s, and classifications are filled automatically.

Shared source of truth

Collaborate with your importers on a shared source of truth.

The Altana product catalog is your definitive system of record for every product and its parts. Importers share their master data through Product Passports, which automatically enriches your catalog with every filing. Brokers can also share their compliance determinations with customers for review and approval. This centralized intelligence ensures every determination—from HS codes and duty treatments to PGA requirements—is consistent, audit-ready, and powered by 24/7 AI compliance monitoring.

How it works

One automated customs workflow

Documents in

AI reads the packet and drafts the entry in minutes, with a confidence score on every field.

Lines determined

Known products carry forward from your catalog. AI classifies, calculates duties, flags exclusions, and fills PGAs for new products. Gaps go back as a request to the importer.

Your importers' rules applied

Each importer's SOPs run automatically, including the account-specific exceptions that live in someone's head, so they apply on every entry.

Screened and audited

AI checks every line for forced labor, origin, classification, and valuation risk, explaining each flag. Documents are reconciled against each other before submission.

Filed by your team

Your team reviews the AI-compiled entry, approves it, and files it in CargoWise, NetCHB, or the ABI system you already use.

Seen by your customer

Confirm compliance decisions with your customer and provide completed records instantly.

Benefits

What changes for your team

  • Account knowledge, shared

    SOPs live on the platform, applied on every entry, so a writer who has never touched the account can work it correctly.

  • Take on more volume with the team you have

    One writer clears 5x the entries they do today.

  • Prove every determination, at any time

    Every HS code, duty call, and approval carries its reasoning and audit trail. CF-28s get answered from the record, not reconstructed from memory.

  • Get closer to your importers

    A shared product record makes you their compliance infrastructure, not just their filer.

The network advantage

Built on the network U.S. Customs trusts.

The same AI that determines compliance attributes carries through to the filing itself. Classification, duty determination, and the entry all draw on one connected source of truth: the network CBP selected, used by thousands of officers daily and covering roughly half of global trade. With Altana, you can pre-validate products with CBP before they ship. Global Entry, but for goods.
