Built on Calgary Economic Development's Trade Accelerator methodology
Not an outline or a template to fill in — a finished, defensible export plan, organized the way a trade advisor would build it. Here are the five areas; each lists the sections it covers.
Target-market analysis with a PEST breakdown and cited sources, a detailed profile of your ideal customer, and a clear read on where you stand at home.
A SWOT for the venture, SMART goals across three horizons, eight ranked market-entry strategies with a chosen path, and brand positioning built for the new market.
A computed 3-year P&L, a 12-month cash-flow projection, and a funding ask — all recalculated live as you adjust the drivers, so every total stays consistent.
An implementation action plan with owners and dates, monitoring and control measures, and a full export-readiness assessment of your resources.
Your company profile with confirmed HS product codes, a standardized glossary of export terms, and a consolidated list of every source cited across the plan.
Most AI tools type plausible-looking numbers. CED Export computes them. Your P&L, cash flow, and funding ask are calculated from drivers you control — so every total stays internally consistent, and when you change an assumption, the whole model recalculates.
You get a 3-year profit & loss projection, a month-by-month cash-flow forecast with a full export-expense breakdown, and a funding ask derived from the low point of your cash position.

A guided questionnaire captures your product, target markets, customers, finances, and export goals.
Automated market research scores candidate markets and assembles an evidence ledger of cited sources.
A short set of clarifying questions confirms your target market and your product's HS codes.
All 16 sections generate. Edit any of them live, then download the formatted Word document.
You've proven the product at home and you're ready for the next market — you just need a credible plan to get there.
You need a P&L, cash-flow projection, and funding ask that a lender or EDC will take seriously.
A traditional export plan runs $15,000–$25,000 and weeks of back-and-forth. This is a fraction of the cost and the wait.
Every section is drafted by one AI model and independently reviewed by a second that flags any statistic, claim, or source it can't verify.
Sections are generated only from your intake and the market research — the system is instructed never to invent numbers, citations, or URLs.
Financial figures, HS codes, the glossary, and references are computed or compiled from confirmed data, not free-typed by an AI.
