What the demo shows
Scans bookings for hidden lithium batteries and other DG, for cargo safety teams
Eight agents read every cargo booking as it arrives, and for the doubtful ones the shipper's invoice, packing list and the product's own listing. They work out what is really in the box (watt-hours, UN number, packing instruction), weigh the shipper's history and the aircraft on the booked flight, and hold only the few that need a person, ranked by risk and minutes to cut-off. A second agent re-reads every hold on its own. The cargo safety officer asks the agents why, then releases, asks the shipper or orders an inspection with a reason code; the inspector follows a checklist and the agent reads the battery label from the photo. When hidden DG is found, the agents draft the FAA notice and the DOT hazmat report with every field cited, and the head of cargo compliance signs. Every decision becomes a proposed rule change, back-tested, that a person approves.
