Why ImportGenius is the best platform for trade intelligence

Global coverage, flexible plans, and pricing that scales with you

Trade Atlas plans start at $2,950 per year, or $3,450 per year with AI features included. They offer coverage across a broad list of countries, but there’s no option to add only the datasets you need.

ImportGenius plans start at $1,500 per year and are built for flexibility. With multiple plan options and à la carte datasets—including high-value trade corridors and hard-to-access regions—businesses can tailor coverage to their needs and scale over time, paying only for the data they use.

HS code access that doesn’t limit your business

ImportGenius makes sure you never miss critical search results just because a code wasn’t unlocked. Our Business and Enterprise plans unlock full search functionality across all HS codes by default, empowering your team to explore any product category without friction.

Trade Atlas puts a cap on the number of HS codes you can set per plan. 

Always up to date with daily shipment data

ImportGenius updates U.S. shipment data daily, giving you unmatched visibility into market movements and competitor activity. Instead of waiting weeks for new data, you can act fast on emerging opportunities, track shipments in near real time, and make informed decisions before your competitors do.

Clear historical data to help you anticipate what’s next

Historical data is essential for identifying long-term trends, assessing supplier consistency, and forecasting demand with confidence.

ImportGenius is transparent about historical coverage. Each plan clearly defines how far back data access extends—ranging from 12+ months of recent history on the Essentials plan to comprehensive U.S. maritime data, including imports dating back to 2006 and exports from 2014, depending on the plan.
