From a customs description to organised data.
How EximRx turns free-text customs records into organised data, and where that data comes from.
From raw records to research-ready markets.
Four layers of work sit between a customs filing and a number you can put in front of a client.
Standardise
We resolve product descriptions, company names and units into a consistent structure, so records from different countries, languages and reporting conventions can be compared.
Classify
Each product description is mapped to a molecule, brand, dosage form, NFC sub-form, corporation and WHO ATC class to four levels, to the extent the information allows. The structure follows how pharmaceutical markets are analysed.
Analyse
Define a market in the query builder and get an immediate view: leading molecules, leading suppliers and shares, top geographies, values, shipment counts and movement over time.
Verify
Classification is checked automatically and then validated manually by our team, so the numbers are ready to use.
Three routes from a customs line to a classified record.
Whatever the filing says, or leaves out, we end up with the same structured fields.
Read from the text. You get: amoxicillin, capsule, 500 mg, ATC J01CA.
Looked up in drug registries, where feasible. You get: amoxicillin + clavulanic acid, tablet, 625 mg.
Enhanced with port-level customs data, in some markets. You get: molecule, form, strength, ATC class.
Built on what countries actually file.
Customs records published by national authorities, read directly where a market files them and through partners’ filings where it does not. Markets seen through partners’ filings are always marked.
