§ 02 · Why Loomline
Generic BI tools can't price a duty rate.
Retalon optimises inventory. EDITED scrapes competitors. Tableau and Power BI draw pretty charts. None of them know what an HTS chapter is.
The status quo
Retalon
Demand forecasting + inventory ops
No customs, no HTS, no landed-cost intelligence
The status quo
EDITED
Competitive pricing + retail intelligence
Watches retail prices, ignores duty exposure upstream
The status quo
Tableau / Power BI
Generic BI + dashboards
You bring the data, the model and the apparel knowledge

04Sourcing Atlas
Country-level risk index combining duty rate, FTA coverage, lead time and political risk. Resourcing recommendations ranked by margin recovery, not just cost.
- FTA coverage
- Risk index
- Recovery ranking
§ 04 · Methodology
How we model a landed dollar.
Most apparel teams calculate landed cost in a spreadsheet, once a quarter, with a tariff rate someone screenshotted from USITC. Loomline runs the same math nightly, across every active SKU, with the rate live from HTS chapter feeds.
01
Pull customs data
Daily ingest from USITC, EU TARIC and national customs bulletins. Cross-checked against your historical duty paid.
02
Map to your SKUs
We classify your catalog to HTS chapter once. From then on, every duty change moves the right SKUs automatically.
03
Compute landed cost
Unit cost + freight (mode-aware) + duty + brokerage. Rolled up to SKU, category, brand and forecast line.
04
Recommend a move
When margin slips below your threshold, we surface the alternative country, the new landed cost and the timeline to switch.
§ 05 · One plan
One price.
Built for the next 1,250 brands.
We exited closed beta with 85 paying brands. By Q4 2027 we plan to be inside 1,250 apparel teams worldwide. Same price for every brand, same depth of tariff data.
