## Reviews

### "High value and Very Useful for Understanding Markets - even Niche Markets" — 5.0/5

> **Matt** | *28 March 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: ImportYeti supplies a tremendous value even at the free tier. Within five minutes of getting started I had uncovered extremely useful information.

\[sensitive content hidden\] was super helpful and responsive with my questions and even fixed a very obscure data representation error that I uncovered.
> 
> **Cons**: There are understandably different ways to access different slices of data. Some of the data I was looking for involved companies both importing and exporting, and it took me a little time to understand how to look for specific types of data.
> 
> Overall very good\! I was quite happy with what I could access for free, but when it came to the point of needing to bulk download data, the small monthly fee more than paid for itself.

### "Fast, actionable U.S. trade data for sales prospecting" — 5.0/5

> **Burak** | *26 December 2025* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: ImportYeti makes it incredibly easy to research U.S. import/export activity and build targeted prospect lists. The search is fast, the shipment history view is clear, and I can quickly understand who is buying from whom, how frequently, and at what scale. Huge time-saver for sales and business development.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes company name matching can be inconsistent (similar names / subsidiaries), and I’d love more advanced filters (date range, HS code/keyword filters) and a smoother export option for larger lists.
> 
> Overall, a very practical tool for trade intelligence. I used it to validate leads and prioritize outreach based on real shipment activity, and it helped me move faster and stay focused on high-potential accounts. Highly recommended.

### "Great site" — 5.0/5

> **Derrick** | *16 May 2025* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The site is very easy to navigate. I've learned so much about suppliers and importers that I wouldn't have learned anywhere else.
> 
> **Cons**: Wasn't really any Cons I can think of. The site supplied me with everything I was looking for
> 
> Definitely recommend if you're looking to get inside info about shipment details and how to find new suppliers for your business

### "A gem. A hidden-gem. A free-hidden-gem\!" — 5.0/5

> **Bash** | *12 October 2025* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: For me, ImportYeti’s biggest and most honest strength is that it is free, and not in the hollow way that suggests important features are locked behind a paywall. That freedom removes the cost friction when you are experimenting with suppliers or scouting new opportunities, and it makes curiosity feel cheap in the best possible sense. On top of that, from my experience the support team is extremely responsive. If you just request a feature by yourself, they tend to take it very seriously and often deliver.

Another feature I genuinely enjoy is the random company search, which is a small joy but a large idea. When you do not have a company in mind, that little button (and the shortcut key) is really useful. It helps you stumble on fresh leads, sparks inspiration, and breaks the paralysis that comes from having too many choices.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish there was a way for me to do proactive discovery. While the platform is great when you go there with a specific company in mind, I would love to see a feature that helps those who comes to explore without a clear starting point. Maybe a personalized section that curates and suggests things I should be looking at based on my past searches, goals, or my profile would be awesome.

### "Highly valuable tool for finding and validating suppliers" — 5.0/5

> **Dylan** | *10 October 2025* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The product supplier search in the Pro plan is a game changer. I can type in a product and instantly see real manufacturers that other companies are using, which has given me a real edge to validate product ideas.
> 
> **Cons**: I really wish there was a mobile app. I find myself wanting to check suppliers or product searches on the go, and having a dedicated app would make that way smoother.
> 
> ImportYeti consistently saves me hours of work every week to source products and suppliers. I use it to find trustworthy suppliers for a variety of niches. It's way better than digging through AliExpress.
