Tariff volatility is no longer a distant risk. Despite temporary pauses on reciprocal tariffs, they remain a disruption that is here to stay.
April 2025’s “Liberation Day” tariffs triggered a wave of retaliatory measures, leaving supply chain teams grappling with more than just cost spikes. Companies now face a patchwork of country-specific rules, complex product exceptions, and escalating policy shifts – all of which can derail sourcing and operational plans overnight.
Supply chain leaders are expected to anticipate the risk impact of new tariffs in near real time. But the reality? Very few companies have the visibility to do so.
The Risk You Can’t See Is the One That Breaks You
For years, companies have relied on static Tier 1 supplier data. But risk doesn’t stop at Tier 1 – and neither do tariffs.
- Are your jet components dependent on Chinese rare earth metals buried in Tier 2?
- Is your bank’s outsourced IT infrastructure built on tariff-impacted semiconductors?
- Are your energy projects relying on imported steel or solar panels from high-risk countries?
If you can’t see beyond the surface, you’re vulnerable – and your options shrink by the day.
That’s why we built itariffs: a starting point to transform uncertainty and anxiety into strategic action.
“Tariffs aren’t just headlines, they’re disrupting critical supply chains in real ways, in real time,” said Yardley Pohl, Chief Product and Technology Officer of interos.ai. “With itariffs, we are giving organizations a powerful edge: AI-driven visibility that cuts through guesswork and reveals risks buried deep across sub-tiers of suppliers. It’s the difference between reacting late and responding smart, before disruptions hit.”
itariffs: Fast, Focused, Multi-Tier Tariff Risk Intelligence
itariffs is purpose-built to answer the most urgent questions supply chain, procurement, and finance teams face today:
- What’s our biggest exposure to tariffs?
- Which country-related tariffs pose the highest risk to our supply base?
- What product categories are most vulnerable to tariffs?
- Where do we act now with respect to vulnerabilities across suppliers, and where do we watch?
With itariffs, you can:
1. Pinpoint tariff exposure across Tier 1, 2, and 3 suppliers, globally
2. Zoom in by country or product category to identify high-risk vendors instantly
3. Easily view product-level differences in tariff rate regulations, even where a country-level tariff exists. We account for product exemptions or different rates altogether for products.
4. Manage lists prioritized by tariff exposure – so you can act fast with tactics like renegotiation, bulk ordering, or diversification.
5. Get a full view of a company’s risk profile across all 6 interos.ai risk factors – financial, ESG, cyber, restrictions, geopolitical, and catastrophic – to quickly streamline decisions on which to retain, replace, ormonitor more closely.
6. Use the Most Favored Nations Tariffs view and define a “bought by” country to understand how your non-US entities are being impacted by tariffs.
Our data updates daily, so there’s no more searching for hours to find trade data online only to be met with more changes the next day. No more saying “we’re not sure” when asked about your tariff risk exposure.
itariffs gives you a clear, immediate starting point to identify tariff-related exposures and start planning for short- and long-term mitigation.
From Reactive to Proactive: The Business Value of itariffs
itariffs doesn’t just surface tariff risk – it helps you act on it. Here’s how organizations are using itariffs to move from reaction to resilience:
- Lead CFO/CEO-level strategy: Surface tariff exposure to guide executive discussions across procurement, finance, and compliance.
- Mitigate now, strengthen for the future: Equip teams with data to support near-term action while building flexible long-term sourcing strategies.
- Accelerate response: React faster to policy changes by identifying high-risk sub-tier clusters.
- Improve sourcing efficiency: Focus immediately on high-risk categories – instead of guessing where to start.
- Manage cost-driven disruption: Renegotiate contracts or shift sourcing before tariff hits cascade into major financial losses.
This is more than visibility – it’s a proactive system for protecting your business from cascading tariff impacts.
Beyond Tariffs: One Risk Signal Among Many
Tariffs don’t happen in isolation. They ripple across your supplier landscape – and often coincide with other vulnerabilities that can’t be ignored.
That’s why itariffs is built on the same intelligence backbone as the rest of interos.ai’s risk factors.
When itariffs flags a supplier – or group of suppliers – exposed to increased tariffs, you can instantly layer on other critical risk dimensions – financial, cyber, ESG, restrictions, geopolitical, and catastrophic. This isn’t just about visibility. By layering on key risk factors, you’re connecting tariff impact with other vulnerabilities in your supply chain to help you make smarter, faster decisions – both for immediate mitigation and long-term resilience.
This Is Just the Beginning
itariffs is launching with powerful capabilities – but there’s more to come. In the months ahead, we’ll continue to evolve the product based on customer feedback and emerging market needs. Future updates to itariffs will introduce cost forecasting capabilities and “similar supplier” recommendations, enabling richer and more tailored insights for faster, smarter, actionable risk management decisions.
Stay tuned for new enhancements that make tariff risk even easier to navigate.
