TRADE

Classify, screen, and review landed cost before customs does

TRADE gives operations and compliance teams one path for classification review, screening, and evidence instead of fragmented catalog exports and manual spot checks.

What TRADE replaces

Manual classification and trade-risk review breaks when product data is incomplete, catalog volume is large, and trade measures move faster than spreadsheet workflows can catch.

  • Start with a product description or a batch file and validate file quality before committing to a full upload.
  • Review HS suggestions, confidence, and landed-cost signals in a workflow built for operator review.
  • Screen for SIMA and related exposure before errors compound into customs or duty surprises.
  • Use catalog and compliance workflows to keep product data usable across ongoing intake.

Frequently asked questions

What is SIMA screening?

SIMA screening checks your product catalog against active Special Import Measures Act (SIMA) measures, anti-dumping duties (ADD), and countervailing duties (CVD) to identify trade-risk exposure before it reaches customs.

How does AI-assisted HS classification work?

TRADE uses AI to suggest Harmonized System (HS) codes for your products based on descriptions. Each suggestion includes a confidence score and is presented for operator review before being applied, keeping humans in the loop for compliance-critical decisions.

What is landed cost estimation?

Landed cost estimation calculates the total cost of importing a product including duties, taxes, and fees based on the HS code, origin country, and destination country. TRADE provides authoritative calculations with breakdown details for operator review.

Can I upload product catalogs in bulk?

Yes. TRADE supports batch file uploads with a preview step that validates file quality, maps columns, and shows classification previews before committing to a full import. Issues are surfaced during normalization so you can fix data quality problems before they compound.

What trade remedies does TRADE screen for?

TRADE screens for SIMA measures, anti-dumping duties (ADD), countervailing duties (CVD), and related trade remedies. The screening covers both US and Canadian trade measures with evidence-ready context for each flagged product.
