GUIDES
Hands-on guides for wiring data into your workflow
Every guide is a flow you can follow end to end — customs records, HS codes, decision-maker emails and agent integration.
How to pull a company's customs import-export records with an API
The full path from a company name to bill-of-lading records: match the company, pull customs shipments, then aggregate categories and trade partners.
Getting started with HS code lookup and trade-flow analysis
How HS codes are structured, how to pick the right digit depth, and how to reverse-look up buyers and suppliers from a code.
A complete API flow for finding overseas decision-maker emails
The four-stage path from a company list to sendable inboxes — enrich, locate the person, find the email, verify it — and how to control cost at each stage.
Waterfall or Agent — choosing the right mode
Waterfall fits structured, enumerable, latency-sensitive lookups. Agent fits research tasks that can't be expressed as fields and need cross-source reasoning.
Installing the TradeWind Skill in Claude, Cursor and n8n
Install the Skill on the main agent platforms without writing code: get an API key, paste the config, run your first query.
Migrating from SaaS tools like Apollo or Snov.io to an API
A four-step migration: run in parallel, map fields, reuse existing quota via BYOK, then shift traffic gradually.
Using Google Maps POI data for local prospecting
Split queries into a geographic grid, dedupe, filter by review count and open status, then enrich contacts.
Data compliance and deduplication practices for outbound
Baseline requirements under GDPR and CCPA, handling opt-out and deletion requests, and practical cross-source dedupe rules.
