How it works

01

One source

U.S. Customs and Border Protection publishes wait times every five minutes. We poll the feed, validate it, and store every observation.

02

Real averages

Best-time-to-cross is computed from your port's own day-of-week and hour-of-day history, not generic guidance.

03

Free to use

No login, no paywall, no ad networks. The only commercial slot is Mexican auto insurance, where it's actually useful.

Tell us when San Ysidro drops below 30 minutes.

We'll email you when the wait crosses your threshold. One alert per hour, never spam.
