Atlanta, GA, April 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ScanTech AI Systems Inc. (the “Company” or “ScanTech AI”) (Nasdaq: STAI<\/a>),\u00a0 a global innovator in non-intrusive, fixed-gantry CT (Computed Tomography) screening technologies, announced that the development of its groundbreaking CustomsTrace AI\u2122 platform has been endorsed by former U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Ralph Basham as critical to both national and economic security.<\/p>\n

Basham, who also previously served as Director of the U.S. Secret Service, stated, \u201cAs the former Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, I can attest that this technology could be a vital tool in safeguarding our nation from a wide range of threats and vulnerabilities\u2014whether related to terrorism or our capacity to identify and assess tariffs, which are critical to our economic security.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n

This powerful endorsement comes on the heels of ScanTech AI unveiling the development of CustomsTrace AI\u2122, a pioneering application being engineered on over a decade of technological advancement, poised to redefine customs intelligence, compliance, and supply chain transparency. <\/p>\n

The platform’s sophisticated commercial goods validation system is purpose-built to address urgent and emerging trade compliance challenges. Advanced capabilities will be designed to validate commercial goods against their respective tariff and harmonization codes, in an effort to adhere to the President\u2019s updated tariff policies and enhance visibility into potential risks. <\/p>\n

Beyond protecting economic interests, CustomsTrace AI\u2122 is also designed to support national security objectives by identifying illicit contraband shipments that might otherwise slip through traditional screening methods. <\/p>\n

ScanTech AI expects to release the product in Q3\/Q4 of 2025.<\/p>\n
