MarkIt

MarkIt is a Y Combinator (Fall 2025) startup based in Atlanta, GA building AI agents that automate international trade compliance workflows. The platform performs defensible HS and HTS tariff-code classification, OCR processing of shipping documents, tariff management, and customs issue resolution, with agents that work directly inside the tools trade professionals already use every day such as Excel, PDFs, and broker portals. MarkIt also publishes a free web-based HTS code classification tool at markittrade.com/hts. As of this enrichment pass MarkIt is an early-stage, landing-page-only product with no public developer API, SDK, documentation, or developer portal surface.

MarkIt is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Trade Compliance, Customs, Tariff Classification, and HS Code.

MarkIt’s developer surface includes tooling and 2 more developer resources.
