Leidos and AI software company CargoSeer have partnered to improve non-intrusive inspection and security solutions that help customs and border protection agencies assess and manage goods crossing international borders.
Under the agreement, CargoSeer’s trade-analysis algorithms will be integrated into Leidos’ Mezzo Enterprise Software Platform, which pulls multiple inspection data sources into one system. The combined capability will give agencies instant, actionable intelligence in the field or at command centers, supporting faster decisions on security risks and trade compliance.
“Customs agencies must continuously balance protecting our borders and enabling the flow of commerce,” said Nik Karnik, vice president and Global Security Products division manager at Leidos. “Through this collaboration, we’re delivering proven AI solutions that help bridge the data gap between security screening and the efficient movement of transported goods.”
Leidos said integrating CargoSeer’s technology into Mezzo strengthens security and improves operational efficiency across ports of entry without slowing the flow of goods through border checkpoints.
“By combining our capabilities, we aim to provide customs operators with a complete risk picture and a truly decisive advantage in protecting the global supply chain,” said David Smason, co-founder and CEO of CargoSeer. “We look forward to relentlessly executing our joint vision of leveraging AI to help safeguard the flow of regulated trade and meet evolving global security needs.”
Both organizations expect to continue collaborating after this initial integration is completed.
