FlavorCloud launched Flash AI, what is said to be the first AI-powered engine that classifies SKUs and estimates landed costs in real time, pulling descriptions directly from e-commerce storefronts.

“Using the wrong HS code declaration incorrect landed costs, customs delays and holds and possibly more serious consequences including fines up to $1 million per violation, seizures of goods, and even loss of import and export privileges,” says Rathna Sharad, CEO and co-founder of FlavorCloud. “Flash AI helps companies avoid these risks by automating HS code classification with 98%+ accuracy for ecommerce goods, reducing human error and ensuring compliance with evolving global trade regulations.”

Key takeaways:

·        With 98%+ accuracy and zero manual input, Flash AI automates the complex process of assigning harmonized system (HS) codes, enabling merchants to eliminate duty overpayments, and ship faster without risking customs delays or margin loss.

·        Flash AI replaces spreadsheets, broker lookups, and outdated classification tools with intelligent, real-time automation. The engine analyzes product descriptions, categories, and images to generate accurate 6-digit HS codes instantly without the need for customs expertise. When used within the FlavorCloud shipping platform, Flash AI generates full 10-digit HS codes as part of the end-to-end trade compliance workflow. 

·        FlavorCloud’s Flash AI product uses advanced natural language processing and image recognition to turn product pages into customs-ready documentation and precise duty calculations, right at checkout.

·        Flash AI is built for compliance leaders, logistics managers, and developers alike.
