Attribution, permissions and distribution

TradeGPT was developed by Dr. Mykola Megits. Retain this attribution when sharing program materials and AI-assisted reports. Organizational names and branding require authorization from their respective owners. Using this tool does not establish a partnership or imply endorsement.

A program coordinator can guide cases and review outputs; participants can use the public tools. Branding and analytics administration remain with the deployment administrator. Choosing a pathway does not grant administrator access.

This edition provides public access. Share its program entry link through an authorized institutional webpage, LMS, workshop or member newsletter. Private student/member workspaces and organizational sign-in are not included. Avoid entering confidential business or student/client records.

Guided export readiness assessment

Answer a few questions to receive a tailored readiness report with strengths, gaps, and practical next steps. No prompt writing required. Responses are self-reported planning inputs; this assessment does not certify export readiness or verify regulations.

Regional trade assistance

Select a pathway and describe your trade opportunity to prepare focused guidance. Both Business and Education modes use your selected answer language.

Preparation runs locally. Press Send in Ask TradeGPT to request an answer under the existing usage limits. This tool does not verify current tariffs, exchange rates, restrictions, or market conditions. Suggested country and industry lists are examples; you can type other values.

Welcome! What international trade question can I help you explore?

Quick Start — Try an Example

Select an example to fill in your TradeGPT question.

AI responses may be inaccurate or outdated. Verify tariffs, regulations, and trade data with official sources. Avoid sharing confidential information.

Interactive export calculators

Explore costs, prices, exchange-rate scenarios, and break-even volumes. Calculations run in your browser without AI calls. The figures below are editable examples, not quotations or current tariff/exchange-rate data.

1. Landed-cost calculator

Use one currency throughout. Customs value is a duty base, not an additional cost. Enter the legally applicable customs and import-tax bases yourself. The examples are fictional assumptions, not current rates. Avoid double-counting freight or insurance already in the purchase price. Specific duties, multiple taxes, exemptions and trade remedies require separate treatment.

Tariff and import tax source
2. Export-pricing calculator

Use a single currency and the same cost scope for each unit. This calculates a target price, not a verified market price. Margin and markup are different.

3. Currency-sensitivity calculator

Example: USD reporting currency and EUR invoice currency means USD per EUR. Higher entered rates increase converted receipts for this exporter scenario. Settle the currency pair and quote direction before entering data.

Exchange-rate source
4. Break-even calculator

Use one currency. Results assume a single product and constant prices and unit costs; the period is defined by your fixed-cost input.

“Verified by user” records your source and date; TradeGPT does not independently verify these inputs. Recheck classification, origin, destination, valuation, tax rules, quote direction and applicable dates before a transaction. These tools do not determine customs classification or legal requirements.

Downloadable export reports

Build an editable market-entry assessment, competitor comparison, regulatory checklist, or export business plan. Download a real Word (.docx) file or open a print view to save as PDF. Report assembly runs in your browser with no extra AI calls or third-party services.

Start with a template, write your findings, or prepare a prompt for Ask TradeGPT and import its answer. Importing attaches the answer with its source and review notes; it does not automatically complete the sections. Review before sharing. Unsaved edits are lost on refresh. Avoid confidential information.

Official Trade Statistics Explorer — Version 22

Import a verified CSV extract from Minnesota DEED or the U.S. Census Bureau to chart actual merchandise export values. No AI-generated statistics are substituted. This first release processes data locally in your browser; it does not yet fetch the databases automatically.

Minnesota DEED official export data · Census state trade data

Use numeric USD values without thousands separators (or quote CSV values). Accepts 2010–2026 and up to 250 rows; duplicates are rejected. Country names must match consistently. Paste figures copied from a government data download; do not type illustrative figures and label them official. Trade figures remain unverified by this website.

Official U.S. Export Statistics Explorer — Version 22.3

Explore official U.S. Census export data for Minnesota across 96 HS product chapters. Compare annual exports by destination and product category, view bar charts, and download CSV results. Figures reflect Minnesota as the state of origin of movement, not necessarily production.

Live retrieval has not yet been tested on your Worker. The feature does not use AI tokens.

Source: U.S. Census state exports by HS. The Census API may return an error or lack a requested period; in that case, use the existing verified-source CSV explorer. This pilot does not infer missing values or silently substitute estimates.

Visual Analytics — Charts, Infographics & Diagrams

Build charts, infographics and supply-chain diagrams from supplied data. Example values are illustrative.

SVG exports are available for charts, infographics and supply-chain diagrams. Verify values and sources before publication.
