About Dutiful
Making customs compliance accessible to everyone
Dutiful is a customs compliance platform that helps businesses understand import and export requirements for any country, any shipment type, instantly.
Our Mission
Eliminate the guesswork from international trade
Customs compliance is one of the most fragmented, opaque areas of global commerce. Regulations differ by country, change frequently, and are scattered across hundreds of websites in dozens of languages.
We started Dutiful because we saw how much time businesses waste researching customs requirements -- and how costly it is when they get it wrong. Delayed shipments, seized goods, unexpected duties, and compliance penalties are everyday realities for freight forwarders, customs brokers, relocation companies, and e-commerce sellers.
Our platform aggregates, verifies, and structures customs data from official government sources worldwide. Through our AI-powered Assist product and our API, we make that information instantly accessible -- whether you are a human asking a question or a system that needs programmatic access.
What We Do
Two products, one mission
Everything we build is designed to get you from question to answer as fast as possible.
Assist
An AI-powered Q&A interface that answers customs compliance questions in plain language. Ask about prohibited items, required documents, duty rates, and more -- for any country pair.
API
Programmatic access to our structured customs data. Integrate compliance checks directly into your shipping software, e-commerce checkout, or internal tools.
