Questions
Straight answers
Is Portaxo a replacement for ImportYeti?
For ad-hoc customs research, ImportYeti is often enough. For export sales — ranked importers, contact unlock, mailbox sequences, and team permissions — Portaxo is the workspace. Many teams still use a research browser when they only need a one-off lookup.
Does Portaxo use the same kind of customs data?
Yes — US import shipment evidence is the starting signal. Portaxo adds product-to-customs matching, fit ranking, contacts, outreach, and enterprise access controls on top of that evidence.
Can admins hide customer contacts from some employees?
Yes on Enterprise. Multi-tenant company accounts use roles and module access. Admins can also mask lead names and emails so staff still see the company and fit — and can run outreach where allowed — without holding the full contact list.
