Section 232 Tariff Reduction

Stop Overpaying Section 232 Tariffs on Complex Assemblies

The data you need to reduce tariff bills by >99% already exists inside your engineering drawings. Nobody could read it at scale. Until now.

Why Manufacturers Overpay Billions in Tariffs

Section 232 tariffs apply 50% on steel and aluminum articles. For complex assemblies, you only owe duty on the regulated material inside — not the full assembly value. But proving it requires component-level data that is economically impossible to extract manually.

$48B/year

Excess Duties Paid by US Importers

U.S. importers bore 92% of Section 301 tariff costs at peak. How much was overpayment on assemblies where the material value was a fraction of the landed cost?

3–5/day

Drawings Processed Manually

A compliance engineer processes 3–5 drawings per day. A typical assembly has dozens to hundreds of components across thousands of drawings. The backlog makes granular analysis impossible.

60%

Engineer Time on Data Entry

Engineers with $150K+ salaries spend more than half their time pulling data from drawings for compliance. Not designing. Not innovating. Data entry.

6–12 mo

Vendor Questionnaire Timelines

Traditional supplier outreach for country-of-origin data gets <40% response rates over 6–12 months. Most vendors cannot answer the questions being asked.

The Math: Why $75,000 Should Be $250

Assembly landed cost $150,000
Steel content (by weight) ~70%
Steel raw material value (~$1,000/ton) ~$500
Section 232 tariff rate 50%
Without Component Proof
$75,000
50% applied to full $150K assembly
With AI-Extracted Data
$250
50% applied to $500 steel material value

From Engineering Drawings to Filing-Ready Data in Minutes

Multi-modal AI reads your engineering drawings the way a senior mechanical engineer does — extracting material, calculating weight from geometry, and classifying every component to 10-digit HTS codes.
