About

Focused research for clearer cross-border decisions.

SocialData Lab Inc. provides cross-border trade data research and market intelligence services. We analyze public customs and trade statistics, commercial trade databases, and public market signals to produce market research reports, product-selection analyses, and supplier and buyer intelligence for businesses engaged in international trade. Our clients are U.S. importers, distributors, and overseas exporters. We charge fixed project fees or subscriptions, invoiced per engagement. We do not buy or sell goods, hold inventory, handle logistics, operate e-commerce stores, or handle funds on behalf of third parties.

What we work on

Three areas of business inquiry.

Markets

Understand demand, competitive conditions, and market directions worth examining further.

Products

Compare category performance and commercial signals to clarify product priorities.

Businesses

Organize public business information on prospective suppliers, buyers, or commercial relationships.

Service boundaries

What we do — and what we do not.

We do

  • Market research reports from public trade data
  • Product-selection data analysis by product and HS code
  • Supplier and buyer public-record profiles
  • Quarterly data updates for clients who need a series, not a snapshot

We do not

  • Legal, tax, accounting, investment, or financial advice
  • Customs brokerage, filing, or representation
  • Compliance reviews, certification, identity verification, or background screening
  • Consumer reports, credit reports, or credit scoring
  • Buying, selling, shipping, holding goods, or handling client funds

All deliverables are for general informational use only and are not professional advice, assurance, verification, or certification.
