Silver Bullet for Trade Compliance
When Chan worked on Tesla’s Global Trade team, every car part—from bolts to battery packs—came from a different country. Each time tariffs shifted, thousands of parts across hundreds of pages of trade rules needed review, research, or reclassification. Pair that with tons of paperwork & meetings with consultants, brokers, & suppliers, and you’ll have one worst workflow of 2025. All happening within Outlook & Excel 2019.
They tried software, consultants, startups — every one of them got shut down due to reasons like product quality & data security.
That’s why we built MarkIt — AI agents that actually do the work for Suppliers, Brokers, and OEMs.

With agents that live where trade professionals already work — Excel, broker portals, and browser — MarkIt helps teams classify products, manage tariffs, and resolve customs issues in seconds, not hours.
MarkIt’s Value: Product & Logic Application
MarkIt is intentionally lightweight, and customizable. Previously, without AI, software in this industry was clunky & typically automating a set workflow. Now, MarkIt can support every trade compliance process, including ones companies have been ignoring.
- Classification: Use our accurate, defensible classifications, or upload your own!
- OCR: Analyze your Bill of Ladings, Commercial Invoices, Packing Lists for report filing, analysis, and report generatino.
- Customization: Users can choose to use their own logic, where MarkIt’s platform would simply handle applying it at volume.
- Build Your Own: MarkIt’s agents are familiar with many document types & many regulations. It’ll be able to support ad-hoc workflows just as well as your daily ones.
- Integration: Plug directly into ABIs and ERPs only if you want. We don’t want require complete system overhaul.
MarkIt is like a coworker specialized in customs & the trade process. Who’s willing to do all of your mindless “dishwashing” work.
