FAQ
Export compliance for small and mid-sized manufacturers. We help you classify your items, screen your buyers, determine licenses, and produce an audit-ready memo — without the cost of a compliance hire or an enterprise platform. You stay in the driver's seat: every decision is yours to approve.
No. ExChek walks you through each step in plain language and cites the specific regulation behind every decision. You don't need to memorize Part 774 — you just need to approve the answer.
An AI assistant is a free desktop app — like Claude — that you talk to in plain English. ExChek installs into the assistant as a plugin, the same way you'd install an app on your phone. After that, you ask things like "classify this headlight housing unit" and the assistant runs the workflow. If you can use email, you can use this.
Every classification and screen is logged with a named reviewer, timestamp, and written rationale. That's the paper trail BIS expects — the same structure a Fortune 500 compliance team produces, just without the Fortune 500 price tag.
Yes. The full engine is free with no payment required from you. The only small extra step: U.S. denied-party screening uses a free key from the Trade.gov developer site (one form, takes 2 minutes). Donations are optional — never required.
Yes. Pull deal or product data to pre-fill classification, and push the result back after approval. Included in the Done-with-you tier; self-serve setup is in the docs.
ExChek installs as a free plugin into Claude (recommended) and works in any frontier AI assistant supporting the open Agent Skills standard — including Cursor today, ChatGPT and Perplexity Compute as those platforms add support. See the docs for install instructions.
Nowhere we can see. ExChek runs locally inside your AI assistant. The only outbound calls are to two U.S. government APIs (ecfr.gov for regulatory text, trade.gov for screening), and only when a skill needs them. We don't host a server you push data to. We don't see your shipments, your buyers, or your reports.
