So it's not just a kind of outside in view, it's a source of truth for the enterprise. And then you've got an AI assistant that can help you look at all those issues across the entire value chain. Hey, that, that is a game changer. You're right, Lalo. Folks, I gotta tell you this is something right here from a compliance standpoint that right there is a is a more in- depth powerful module than I've ever heard on the automated classification.
Under these current compliance challenges, getting Altana is a no-brainer solution. I have seen companies get caught up in paying millions to try to fight detentions. If they had taken an offensive position it would have been much more cost effective. Pushing your compliance strategy as far away from U.S. ports and enforcement actions as possible would guarantee greater predictability and transparency in the supply chain!
