How it sells itself

Scan read-only for missing HS codes, origin, weight, SKUs, categories, and images. Free: up to 100 products and the first 20 issue rows. Pro: up to 10,000 products, the first 1,000 rows, complete exports, five completed scans, and weekly scans with in-app results. Scans support up to 100 variants per product; if a product exceeds that limit, the scan fails without partial results.

DutyLookout gives every product in your catalog a 10-digit US HTS code. A first pass works out the tariff subheading; a second picks the statistical line from the lines actually published under it. Each code comes with a confidence score and a plain-English reason. Approve codes in bulk, or let high-confidence ones auto-approve, and they are written to every variant.

Key points
  • Scan catalog data for missing HS codes, origins, weights, and SKUs
  • Review prioritized issue rows with product links and next actions
  • Export cleanup worksheets and track new or fixed issues over time
  • Two passes: the 10-digit line is chosen from the published tariff, not recalled
  • A written rationale and a confidence level on every suggested code
  • Codes you already hold are validated and kept, never replaced without approval
  • Duty computed by arithmetic against a versioned rate snapshot, with no AI
