Simutrade is a cutting-edge AI-powered platform that revolutionizes trade supply chain simulation and analysis. Built with modern web technologies, it provides businesses, traders, and analysts with powerful tools to simulate, analyze, and optimize global trade scenarios in real-time.
Global trade and supply-chain planning is fragmented, slow, and difficult to model. Before committing real capital, traders and small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) struggle to answer basic questions: Which route is cheapest? What tariffs and duties apply? How long will it take? What disrupts the journey?
- Scattered information — routes, costs, tariffs, and logistics data live across disconnected systems and spreadsheets.
- High barrier to entry — professional trade-modeling tools are expensive and complex, leaving SMEs, students, and analysts underserved.
- No safe space to experiment — there is no accessible "sandbox" to simulate a trade journey and compare scenarios before real money is on the line.
- Reactive, not predictive — decisions are made without data-driven forecasting of risk, cost, and time.
Simutrade turns trade planning into an interactive, AI-assisted simulation — letting anyone model, compare, and optimize a trade journey in minutes instead of weeks:
- 🤖 AI-Powered Simulation Engine — model trade routes, costs, tariffs, and timelines and get instant, data-driven feedback on each scenario.
- 🌍 Interactive Global Maps — visualize trade flows and supply-chain networks in real time to understand the full journey at a glance.
- 📊 Real-Time Analytics — dashboards surface KPIs, sentiment, and trend forecasting so decisions are predictive rather than reactive.
- 💬 AI Assistant (RAG) — a Retrieval-Augmented Generation assistant answers trade questions and recommends optimal strategies in plain language.
- 🎯 Mission-Based Strategy — guided, goal-oriented workflows help users identify opportunities and de-risk their plans before committing.
Together these make professional-grade trade simulation accessible, fast, and affordable for SMEs, analysts, students, and policy makers alike.
- 🤖 AI-Powered Analysis: Advanced machine learning algorithms for trade pattern recognition and prediction
- 🌍 Interactive Global Maps: Real-time visualization of trade flows and supply chain networks

The Google APAC Solution Challenge 2025 is Google's annual region-wide hackathon for students across the Asia-Pacific. Teams are challenged to build real-world solutions to problems aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) using Google technologies — and compete for a place among the region's top teams.
Simutrade was built specifically for this hackathon, under the Trade challenge topic — addressing how technology can make global trade more accessible, efficient, and data-driven for businesses and emerging economies.
Simutrade was selected as a Top 10 Finalist in the prestigious Google APAC Solution Challenge 2025! Our team ITBebas had the incredible opportunity to travel to the Philippines and present our solution at the Asian Development Bank Headquarters.
