I Built a Site to Track U.S. Tariff Updates in Real Time

Hacker News

Hi I'm Ryan, the creator of Tariffstatus.com. I woke up wondering what tariffs were active and what was scheduled. However, when I started searching the web, it was a quagmire of news sites and long articles that didn't give me a simple and clear answer - the government sites were even worse. Also, I imagine they will be constantly changing. I wanted this for myself, but I'm also hopeful it helps others. I plan to keep it up to date. Many of these tariffs are having and will have a significant impact on both consumers and business owners. Trying to bring a bit of order to the chaos! I’d love to hear your feedback, whether positive or negative and any other feature requests or improvements you'd like to see. Thanks so much! p.s. I know that you could probably use AI/Perplexity to search for this information, but not everyone may know how to do that or has access to those tools.
