Help your staff pass the customs broker exam in April 2027
I'm running a small pilot with a few US brokerage firms before the April exam. It costs US$149 for up to 5 staff. After the pilot the price will be US$249.
What a failed attempt costs your firm
Only 12% of candidates passed in October 2025 and 22% in April 2026, according to CBP. Each attempt costs US$390, and the exam only runs in April and October. Every extra licensed broker is one more person who can sign off work, so you rely less on one or two people.
What your staff get
- Official CBP past papers with every answer explained
- The exact 19 CFR or HTSUS section behind each answer
- A tip on where to find it fast, because the exam is open book
- A simple view for you of which topics each person keeps getting wrong
The product is still being built, and pilot firms will be the first to use it.
Why not just use ChatGPT?
In one published test, a general AI tool scored 60% on the October 2025 exam, below the 75% pass mark. A company selling its own trade AI ran that test. A general tool also has no idea where your people lose marks.
Who is running this
I'm Mark Ashworth. I was Head of Product at Geniebook, an exam-prep company that raised over $20m, and employee number one at Spiral, a classroom app bought by Discovery Education. I also hold a Masters in Knowledge Management.
Pilot terms
US$149 is a one-off payment for up to 5 staff, and there is no refund. All I ask in return is honest feedback. You can see the 10 explained questions before you decide.
