Create a packaging analysis tool that helps small manufacturers and online sellers compare package designs before ordering materials.
Allow users to enter product dimensions, weight, fragility, required protective materials, carrier constraints, available box sizes, packing labor, and shipping rate rules. Generate candidate packaging configurations that fit the product while accounting for protection, dimensional weight, material cost, storage efficiency, and assembly complexity.
Visualize approximate package layouts and compare options using total estimated cost per shipment. Include scenarios involving different order volumes, carrier pricing rules, recycled materials, and multi-item orders.
Flag configurations that violate supplied constraints or require physical testing. Do not claim that a package is safe for transit solely because it fits geometrically.
Provide a material list, packing instructions, estimated savings against a baseline, and a prototype testing checklist. Clearly label assumptions and allow users to replace estimated dimensions or rates with verified supplier and carrier data.
