DesignSilc is a global import, export and trading software development company with teams in Dhaka, Austin and the UK, serving clients in 38+ countries. We build systems that manage letters of credit, trade documents, sourcing orders, inventory with landed costs and multi-currency accounts for traders, importers, exporters, distributors and buying houses. Instead of chasing LC numbers in email threads and spreadsheets, your team sees each order from proforma invoice to shipment, customs clearance and payment in one place. We have built software since 2015.
Trade businesses run on documents and deadlines: LC expiry, shipment dates, bank acceptance, maturity payments and customs duties, whether you ship from Bangladesh, China, the EU or the USA. We build systems that track each of these with reminders, attach scanned documents to the right order and calculate true per-unit cost after freight, insurance, duty and bank charges. You can start with LC and order tracking, then add inventory, accounting or a supplier portal in phases. Every trade system now includes AI built in: it reads proforma invoices, checks documents against LC terms, predicts shipment delays and gives your own AI assistants secure access through an MCP server.
Systems that follow each order, document and unit of cost from supplier to final customer.
Track LCs, amendments, PI, commercial invoice, packing list, B/L and bank documents with expiry and maturity reminders.
Buyer orders, factory allocation, samples and approvals, T&A calendar, inspections and shipment status for each style.
Follow containers from port of loading to arrival, freight forwarder and customs broker updates, duty assessment and delivery.
Allocate freight, insurance, duty, VAT and bank charges to each item so stock value and margins reflect true cost.
Record USD, EUR, GBP, CNY, AED and BDT transactions, exchange gains and losses, bank-wise LC margins and party ledgers.
Wholesale orders, dealer pricing, delivery notes, credit limits and collection follow-ups for traded goods.
AI reads the paperwork, checks it against your LC terms and warns you before a deadline slips, so your commercial team catches discrepancies and cost surprises before the bank or customs does.

Owners and managers in trading businesses rarely sit at a desk all day, so we build Android and iOS apps that put key numbers in their pocket: open LCs and upcoming maturities, shipments in transit, stock by warehouse and receivables by party. Buying house merchandisers can update sample status, upload inspection photos and approve orders from the factory floor. Sales staff can take wholesale orders offline and sync them when they reconnect.

It depends on the modules you need, such as LC tracking, buying house workflows, inventory, accounting or apps, plus users and branches. DesignSilc gives clients in the USA, UK, Europe, Middle East and South Asia a fixed quote after a free discovery call. Many trading companies start with an MVP for LC and order tracking, then add landed costing, inventory and accounting in phases.
An LC and order tracking system typically takes 6 to 10 weeks for a first release. A wider trading ERP with inventory, landed costing and multi-currency accounting typically takes 12 to 20 weeks, delivered in phases. DesignSilc also migrates your open LCs, stock and party balances so your team can switch over cleanly.
Yes. DesignSilc builds landed costing that adds freight, insurance, customs duty, excise or supplementary duty, import VAT, broker charges and bank fees to each import, then allocates them to items by value, weight or quantity. Duty and tax heads are configurable per country, so stock valuation and selling prices reflect the real cost of goods, not just the supplier invoice.
Yes. DesignSilc builds buying house and sourcing software that manages buyer orders by style, factory allocation, sample stages, approvals, time and action calendars, inspections and shipments. It is trusted by sourcing teams supplying EU and US brands, giving merchandisers a clear view of every order's status and management a view of commission, delays and factory performance.
Our trade systems include proforma invoice extraction, supplier quote comparison on landed cost and lead time, LC application drafts from an approved PI, LC expiry and shipment risk alerts, a document discrepancy checker against LC terms, HS code suggestions with duty estimates, vessel ETA and demurrage prediction, export document drafting, counterparty sanctions screening and a daily trade briefing for the commercial head. Each check is a suggestion with reasons, and your team confirms documents and payments before anything goes to a bank, customs agent or buyer.
Yes. An MCP server is built in, so Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or your own agents can look up LC status, check documents against LC terms, track containers, estimate duty and review FX exposure. Each assistant inherits its user's permissions, so a sales executive's assistant cannot see bank limits meant for finance. LC amendments, payment requests and forward bookings are saved as drafts for an authorised approver, and every tool call is logged with who asked and when. You can use a cloud AI model or keep everything on a private model you host.
