What We Do
Two ways we help trade compliance teams: building custom compliance systems from consulting through deployment, and providing professional-grade online tools that go deeper than anything else on the market.
CUSTOM COMPLIANCE AUTOMATION
We embed into your team, map your compliance workflow end to end, and build a system that fits how you actually operate. Every project starts with understanding the real work before writing a single line of code.

Building Your Smart Compliance Workspace
We don't sell off the shelf software and walk away. Every engagement starts with understanding your team's actual workflow. Using principles from Management Information Systems and service design, we map your compliance operations end to end before writing a single line of code. The result is a system built around how your team actually works, not how we think it should.
How We Work Together
A five-phase engagement from discovery to ongoing operations.

Online Compliance Tools
Our online tools are used daily by industry practitioners. Each tool handles a specific piece of the compliance workflow with more depth and accuracy than general purpose alternatives.
Pre-Classification Research
Built with deep experience across automotive parts, electronics, chemicals, furniture, machinery, textiles, consumer goods, and industrial components. When the product information provided isn't enough to confidently move research forward, our tool pauses and asks the user for more details rather than making assumptions. The full reasoning process is logged at every step, including how competing HTS headings were weighed, so there's always a clear and traceable audit trail to share with your licensed customs broker.

Compliance Disclaimer
- This is a pre-classification research tool. Results are for general reference, educational, and planning purposes only.
- Results are designed to enable better communication between trade compliance teams, importers, and licensed customs brokers.
- Results must not be used directly in customs entry documents without independent review by a licensed customs broker.
- Per CBP Ruling HQ H290535, providing HTS classifications beyond 6 digits for specific goods intended for importation constitutes “customs business” under 19 U.S.C. § 1641.

Frequently Asked
Questions About Our Services
How long does a custom automation engagement take?
+
It depends on scope, but a typical engagement runs 8 to 16 weeks from discovery through go live. We start with a 2 to 3 week discovery and diagnosis phase so we can scope the build accurately before committing to a timeline.
Can I try the online tools before committing to consulting?
+
Absolutely. Our Pre-Classification Research Tool and Tariff Calculator are available online, the same professional-grade tools used daily by licensed customs brokers and compliance managers. Many clients start with the online tools and later engage us for custom system building once they experience the depth of our research capabilities.
What makes GingerControl different from other compliance platforms?
+
We combine deep trade compliance domain knowledge with modern AI engineering. Our pre-classification research tool follows the same GRI logic that customs brokers use, asks clarifying questions instead of guessing, and produces research reports with full reasoning chains. Our tariff calculator supports special units and calculation methods that other tools simply do not cover.
