Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before engagement.

What's the difference between Pulse, Bundle, and Extended?+
R003 Pulse ($1,500) identifies Top 20 importers with methodology disclosure, IMMEX status, and 1-sentence commentary per importer. R003 Bundle ($2,200) expands to Top 50 with cluster analysis, customs office matrices, country-of-origin breakdowns, IMMEX cross-reference matrix. R003 Extended ($2,800) includes Bundle features plus deeper monthly trajectories, expanded forward commentary, and a Q&A session post-delivery.
Can I see a sample before buying?+
Yes. Our free LM3 Public Snapshot (18 pages, downloadable at vstrade.co) demonstrates our methodology applied to the AI server segment with anonymized findings. It includes 6 headline findings, 2 data tables, methodology section, and forward-looking analytical approach. Paid reports add named-entity identification plus operational profiles.
What's your refund policy?+
We commit to specific delivery timelines (Pulse 5 BD, Bundle 5 BD, Extended 10 BD). If we cannot meet SLA, we notify within 24 hours with revised timeline. You can choose: (a) accept revised timeline, (b) request full refund within 7 business days, or (c) accept partial deliverable if >50% complete with 50% refund. SLAs subject to standard force majeure exceptions.
How recent is the data?+
R003 reports cover January 2024 through April 2026 at launch. Mexican customs data has natural publication lag of 4-8 weeks. We refresh underlying datasets monthly. Reports purchased within 30 days of publication reflect most recent data; later purchases receive version published closest to purchase date. Retainer tiers include quarterly refreshes.
Do you offer retainer or ongoing engagement?+
Yes. Three retainer tiers: Basic ($3,000/month, 4 analyst-hours + quarterly update + 48h priority), Standard ($5,000/month, 8 hours + 2 calls + dedicated analyst + 24h priority), Premium ($8,000/month, 16 hours + weekly calls + unlimited queries + 12h priority). All retainers have a 6-month minimum commitment, then continue month-to-month with 30-day notice. 10% discount available on 12-month upfront commitments. All include priority on R001-R005 deliverables.
Do you offer custom coverage periods?+
Yes, under R004 Custom Coverage (waitlist, formal launch with quote-based pricing). Standard R003 reports cover January 2024 through Q1 2026. Custom periods (specific 12-month windows, multi-year deep dives, recent quarterly snapshots) are quoted based on scope. Typical pricing ranges $5,000-$15,000 depending on requirements. Inquiries: [email protected]
Is the data raw or pre-aggregated?+
Our reports deliver analytical insights, not raw data files. We process records from licensed third-party trade data providers and apply proprietary methodology (canonical name consolidation, operator classification, cluster analysis) to produce entity-level intelligence. Clients receive PDF reports with tables, charts, and narrative analysis. We do not sell or license raw customs data.
Can I share the report with my team?+
R003 reports are licensed for use by the purchasing entity, including employees and contractors working on the engagement. Permitted: internal sharing, use in client presentations under your firm's brand (with citation), retention for internal reference. Not permitted: redistribution to non-employees, resale, sublicensing, publication of substantive content externally, systematic extraction.
Why $2,800 for Extended vs cheaper alternatives?+
Established trade intelligence platforms charge $5,000-$50,000+ annually for subscription access to comparable Mexican data. Our single-report pricing reflects depth of analysis (entity-level operator classification, cluster identification, methodology transparency) without subscription commitment. Building this analysis in-house: senior analyst at $150-$300/hour requires 40-80 hours to replicate Extended report quality.
What if I need more than one sector deep dive?+
R003 covers AI server hardware and compute parts. Our roadmap includes R001 Mexico Total Trade Atlas (July 2026, cross-sector overview), R002 Sector Vertical Reports (industry-specific deep dives), and R005 Multi-Sector Bundles (Q3-Q4 2026, 5-7 sectors with synthesis). Early-access pricing available for committed engagements before formal launch.
Can I customize delivery beyond standard packages?+
Yes. Available add-ons: Rush delivery (-50% time, +30%), Multi-user license (5+ team, +25%), Quarterly refresh (+$500), Spanish translation (+$300), Q&A session expansion (30→60 min, +$500), Custom HS-code splits (+$800/code), White-label branded delivery (from $2,000). Volume discounts: -10% at $10K+, -15% at $25K+, -20% at $50K+. Annual R003 subscription (4 quarterly): $7,500/yr.
Why we're different

Named entity-level rigor. Methodology transparent.

M-01

Named entities, not aggregates

vs. Veritrade raw dumps

Every importer is reconciled against licensed registry sources, RFC, WHOIS, and corporate filings. Fuzzy matches are flagged in-line; ambiguous shipments are excluded from totals, not silently absorbed.

M-02

Coverage disclosed on every chart

vs. unfounded "comprehensive" claims

Every figure carries an explicit coverage percentage and a date stamp. We publish what we don't see, not just what we do. Subject to revision per Banxico release cycle.

M-03

Caveats and limitations explicit

vs. over-promise marketing

Bonded-warehouse leakage, IMMEX re-export adjustment, lagging Banxico revisions — all surfaced in a standing methodology callout, never tucked into a footer disclaimer.

About

Founder-led. UK-incorporated. Boutique by design.

FOUNDER · PRINCIPAL ANALYST
Sebastian Alfonso
Founder · Trade intelligence · Argentina

VS-Trade was founded in March 2026 to fix a specific gap: Mexican import data is publicly available, but the work of disambiguating named entities, reconciling sources, and footnoting estimates is almost never done at the standard a research desk would accept.

Reports are written single-author. Methodology is published. Coverage is disclosed. Mistakes are revised in writing.
