11% of US trade has turned fraudulent since Liberation day created massive incentive to cheat on your tariffs. Chinese exporters declare the value of their US exports to the Chinese government $112B higher than the value of the same goods as declared to the US government.

If you don't work in global logistics you may have no idea how ground breaking AI-powered natural language report generation is. We will save customers soo much time with the ability to just ask a question to generate a report or graph, then click save to turn it into a dashboard.

Container shipping enjoyers will love Flexport Atlas, our new (free to use) interface for browsing the world's ocean network. Search any two ports to see all the actual routes available and their relative transit times. Still in Beta with lots of improvements planned, but it's already incredibly useful. And unlike Stripe Atlas, OpenAI Atlas and many other great software products named Atlas, Flexport Atlas is actually an atlas.

Vietnam has crazy energy right now. 8% economic growth will do that for a place. At this rate in 9 years they’ll be making twice as much as they are today. That gets people pumped! I posted this video about my trip to Vietnam for the Flexport team yesterday.

Flexport now allows importers to use our AI Customs Auditor to audit all the customs entries their other customs brokers have done for them. We find their mistakes and then set you up to claim refunds wherever you overpaid. The first two companies we ran through the process showed error rates of 14% and 85%, respectively. It's free, and it's one of the meanest things I've ever done to our competition.

For the last 250 years, English has been the language of global trade. Flexport Translations changes that, allowing importers and exporters to communicate in their own language with live translations (powered by Grok) so they can understand each other. We've launched this week by translating the entire platform, including live message translations, with support for English, Mandarin (simplified and traditional), Vietnamese, Thai, Korean, Italian, and Spanish.
