Questions before you start

Frequently asked

What counts as an importer lead in LIT?

A US company with recent customs (BOL) activity as consignee — meaning it demonstrably imports. Each lead carries shipment history, lanes, ports, carrier mix, estimated freight spend, and verified decision-maker contacts.

How is this different from buying an importer list?

Purchased lists decay the day they're exported and rarely prove import activity. LIT is a live database: activity refreshes daily from CBP filings, so every lead you pull is importing right now, and you can verify it on the account page.

Can I find importers by product or HS code?

Yes. Search by HS code, product keywords from bill-of-lading descriptions, origin country, port of entry, carrier, or industry — then stack filters (e.g., furniture importers from Vietnam entering through Savannah).

Do importer leads include contact information?

Yes. LIT joins each importer to verified supply-chain decision makers — logistics, procurement, and import/ops titles — with email, LinkedIn, and direct dial. The free trial includes 10 contact enrichments.

How fresh is the import data?

US customs manifest data is ingested and normalized daily. Pulse watchlists then alert you weekly when a saved importer changes — new lanes, volume shifts, or a displaced forwarder.
