🔍 What is Compact Mode?
Compact Mode is an advanced packing algorithm in 3dpack.ing that optimizes space by packing items more efficiently. This means:
- ✅ More items per container
- ✅ Fewer shipments
- ✅ Lower shipping costs
📦 A Simple Example
Imagine you have:
- A box with dimensions 500×500×500
- Items with dimensions 100×200×300
With standard methods: You can only fit 19 items.

With Compact Mode: You can fit 20 items.

📊 Competitor Comparison
Our competitors achieve similar results with standard methods, typically packing 19 items in this scenario:


By switching to Compact Mode, we consistently pack 5% more than competitors, reducing costs and increasing efficiency.
🛠 Real-World Case Study
In a real-world scenario, Compact Mode enabled a logistics company to fit 25 items in a shipment, while competitors could only manage 24. This optimization led to significant cost reductions over thousands of shipments.


🛠 How Does Compact Mode Work?
The traditional method partitions the remaining space into sections once an item is placed, which can leave gaps in two different ways. In below picture the red boxes are the items and the white boxes are the partitions. So you can see there are 2 different options for this case.


Compact Mode improves on these inefficiencies by ignoring predefined partitions and instead leveraging **black circles**, which represent potential placement points across the available space. This method allows for a more dynamic and efficient arrangement of items.

⚡ Final Thoughts
Compact Mode is an AI-driven optimization tool that helps businesses pack more efficiently and reduce shipping costs. Even if it’s not always the fastest option, its benefits are clear when every item counts.
