In their own words
CustomsLogIQ
CustomsLogIQ is a cloud platform for customs classification and trade compliance in Canada and the United States. It drafts 10-digit HS and HTS codes with GIR/GRI reasoning from commercial invoices, photos, PDFs, images, CSV files, and Excel XLSX files, including bulk uploads. Professionals can review or override its recommendations. Screening covers government agencies, sanctions, duties, taxes, and available free trade agreement opportunities. The system records reasoning, cited rulings, reviewed headings, broker decisions, and timestamped activity, and can export PDF or CSV reports. Trade Compliance and higher plans recheck classifications monthly and alert users to relevant regulatory changes. CustomsLogIQ describes the product as a research and drafting aid rather than an autonomous filing system; the professional of record makes the final decision. The free plan includes three monthly credits, then additional use costs $1 per credit. Credit Packs cost $1 as a one-time purchase, and Trade Compliance is $495 a month with a 12-month agreement. Customs filing is not offered.
LandedCost
LandedCost calculates landed costs and per-unit profitability for importers and e-commerce sellers. Its engine allocates shared expenses by volume, weight, chargeable weight, units, value, or equal split. Shipments progress through created, in-transit, customs, and delivered stages, with costs accruing along the way. The platform calculates duty and import VAT by HS code and leaves reclaimable VAT out of profit calculations. Supplier invoices can use historical exchange rates from the day payment moved. Profitability calculations can include Amazon, eBay, and Shopify fees, while the extent of multi-channel features depends on plan. Listed channels also include Walmart, Etsy, TikTok Shop, and WooCommerce. Reports include CSV table exports, quarterly cost packs, and PDFs. The web-based cloud service offers tariff classification and landed-cost calculation, but not customs filing. Pricing starts at $49/mo, and the 14-day trial requires a payment card; billing starts on day 15 unless cancelled. Free import duty, HS code, invoice, FBA fee, and container tools are available without an account.
