About
USTradeSignals is the public reading room for U.S. trade — the official numbers, the products they describe, and the companies who trade them.
Every import and export figure on this site originates from the U.S. Census Bureau international trade program, with services-trade figures from the Bureau of Economic Analysis. We never estimate, model or adjust a source value — what you see is what the agencies published, reorganized so it can be browsed by product, country, state, port and district. Some figures on the site are computed by us rather than published: year-over- year growth, the opportunity score, and the observed duty rate. Those are derived, and each one is documented.
Figures are updated monthly, following the Census release schedule. Duty rates shown are observed — collected duty divided by dutiable value — not statutory schedule rates, so they reflect what importers actually paid after trade agreements and exclusions. Full coverage and methodology.
USTradeSignals is operated by Fovea.

We use AI to write plain-English product names and summaries over the official figures. AI never produces, estimates or alters a number — every value on this site comes straight from the source agency. Summaries are labeled where they appear. More on how we use AI.
If a figure looks wrong, tell us and we will trace it back to the source release. Email support@ustradesignals.com with the page URL, the classification code, and the period in question.
