AI import assistant / calculator
From a sentence to a
landed-cost range.
Describe the shipment. We will extract what you said, show what is missing, and calculate goods, freight, duty, VAT and local charges without pretending the answer is exact.
Shipment
Enter the landed cost you can support. We solve for the maximum supplier FOB, accounting for freight, duty, VAT and local charges that scale with the purchase price.
The solver uses your current brief. If no brief has been parsed yet, it uses the sample shipment above. Duty and VAT are recalculated as FOB changes; freight and local charges are held at their expected values.
One shipment, several destinations. Each row uses that country’s duty range, VAT rate, local charges and freight model. Origin and quantities stay fixed.
Comparison excludes destination-specific conformity, licensing and legal costs unless they are part of the modelled local charges. A cheaper border is not always a cheaper market.
What the estimate includes
Supplier FOB value, international freight, cargo insurance, customs duty, modelled trade measures, import VAT/GST, statutory fees, clearance, port handling, inland delivery and documentation.
What it does not include
Product compliance testing, licences, product registration, demurrage, inspections, financing, currency hedging, inventory carrying cost or your selling margin.
What we need from you
A product description, quantity, origin, destination and a value. Shipping method is helpful; if you do not know, choose “not set” and we will use sea freight as a stated assumption.
