- **Entity Type**: Private (Series B – $66M total funding)
- **Headquarters**: San Jose, California, United States
- **Founded**: 2018
- **Founders**: Sam, Rick, and Ulf (full names not publicly disclosed)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Trade compliance / Customs clearance / Supply chain technology
- **Target customers**: B2B – licensed customs brokers, importers of record (IOR), self-filers, freight forwarders, and multinational enterprises
- **Mission**: To simplify global trade by replacing manual, fragmented customs processes with smart, AI-driven automation and compliance control.

## Products & Services
- **KlearNow Customs Clearance Platform**: An AI-powered SaaS platform that ingests, contextualizes, and structures trade documents from multiple sources, automates customs entry workflows, and performs continuous financial and compliance validations.
- **Compliance Control Tower**: A centralized dashboard for monitoring and managing trade compliance across borders, tariffs, and regulatory changes.
- **Licensed Customs Broker Services**: In-house licensed brokerage offering end-to-end clearance and advisory support.
- **Data Capture, Ingestion & Collaboration**: Tools to digitize and harmonize data from emails, spreadsheets, and internal systems.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Annual Revenue ~$15M (LinkedIn estimate); Total Funding $66M (Series A $16M led by GreatPoint Ventures in 2020, Series B $50M led by Kayne Anderson Growth Capital in 2021)

- **Contextualized data engine** ingests data from siloed sources (emails, spreadsheets, ERP systems) without manual re-entry.
- **Proven track record** navigating complex tariff changes (IEEPA, Brexit, COVID disruptions, Trump Trade 2.0) for customers.

## Strategic Focus
- Deepening AI capabilities (e.g., AI Co-Pilot, predictive compliance) to help customers adapt to shifting tariffs and trade uncertainty.
- Expanding global footprint – offices in India (Gurugram development hub), U.S., Canada, Spain, UK, and Netherlands.
