Why ImportGenius is the best platform for trade intelligence
More years, better insights, better platform
With nearly 2 decades of expertise in trade intelligence, ImportGenius has continuously refined its platform and processes.
That experience translates into better data quality, smarter tools, and a deeper understanding of what businesses really need to succeed in global trade.
Reliable trade data, proven by 50,000 customers
From Fortune 500s wanting to protect their billion-dollar supply chain to investigative journalists requiring timely, accurate records, ImportGenius delivers the shipment-level accuracy and legal-grade reliability trusted by top-tier professionals.
Whatever your industry, from logistics to compliance, ImportGenius gives you the clarity to act fast and smart.
Intelligence from lanes that move the trade
TradeInt may highlight a longer country list, but ImportGenius delivers visibility into the two most strategic trade corridors in the world: the Panama Canal and the U.S.–Mexico border (all modes).
With 5% of global trade flowing through the Canal and over 12 million annual crossings at the U.S.–Mexico border, these aren’t just regions–they’re strategic pressure points for global logistics.
Country access that scales with you
ImportGenius puts you in control. Start with U.S. data and add the countries you need, when you need them, ensuring you pay only for what delivers value.
TradeInt’s entry plan restricts access to a limited set of countries, locking key markets behind higher-tier subscriptions. This could point to less flexibility and more spend on unused data.
How ImportGenius helps you find opportunities in the global trade
Timely data, sharper decisions
ImportGenius updates U.S. data daily and refreshes international datasets as soon as they're released, typically monthly. You get current, actionable intelligence without delay.
TradeInt notes regular updates, but without a stated refresh schedule, it’s harder to evaluate consistency or recency across markets.
Seamless integration with your systems
We deliver API access designed for scale, offered as an option for Business Plans, and fully built-in for enterprise clients. This means faster workflows, automated insights, and effortless integration into tools like Salesforce and NetSuite.
TradeInt makes no mention of API connectivity, requiring manual data pulls that slow your operations and limit scalability.
Expert support, when it counts
ImportGenius offers responsive, expert-backed support across all plans, including U.S.-based assistance and dedicated teams for enterprise clients. When timing is critical, our U.S.-based experts deliver fast, actionable answers.
TradeInt lists email and live chat options, but doesn’t clearly outline the level of service or availability you can expect.
Lead generation, built for speed
Identify and evaluate potential customers or suppliers easily with ImportGenius. Use powerful filters—by product, port, HS code, and more—and leverage our Genius Company Profiler to instantly surface trade activity, synergies, and opportunities at scale.
