True Landed Cost for SKUs

Give TikTok Shop sellers the real landed cost and profit per SKU

Problem
TikTok Shop sellers juggle purchase price, first-mile freight, platform commission, creator commissions, returns and storage—and still can't tell whether a given SKU makes money; existing tools report gross numbers, so sellers stitch conclusions together in spreadsheets.
Solution
After importing orders and purchase data, the tool allocates freight, platform fees, creator splits and return losses per SKU, computes true landed cost and unit margin, and sends weekly alerts on money-losing SKUs with pricing suggestions.
Users
Small and mid-size TikTok Shop sellers doing thousands to tens of thousands of orders a month, mostly pricing by gut and Excel
MVP
CSV import of orders and purchases; configurable fee templates (freight/platform/creators/returns); per-SKU landed cost and margin dashboard; red list of loss-making SKUs
Revenue
Monthly subscription tiered by SKU count or order volume; premium adds profit forecasting and multi-store comparison
Why now
TikTok Shop seller counts are exploding while serious finance tooling remains Amazon-centric—a gap small teams can enter within weeks
