Why we're here

Why our research now focuses on Shopify Plus B2B

J Trade Help started in export intelligence and buyer discovery using HS codes and import-export data. Useful work, but the workflows were too custom per customer to turn into a repeatable product.

We moved our research toward a market with a shared operating layer and recurring workflows: Shopify Plus B2B. RFQs, approvals, negotiated pricing, purchase orders, and checkout handoff are the same painful pattern across many merchants. That is the gap TradeQuote AI is being built to close, and it is what every report on this page now investigates.
