[NEW] Update the status of many plots at once You can now set the status of a whole plot selection in one action instead of plot by plot — built for teams managing large portfolios. Each plot's risk-assessment history records the change individually, so the audit trail is identical to updating one at a time.

[IMPROVED] EUDR Due Diligence Questionnaire — now covers EU and non-EU suppliers
The default supplier questionnaire has been rebuilt and now adapts to each supplier's EUDR profile. A short set of profiling questions — whether the supplier is based in the EU, their company size, their EUDR role, and whether they produce the commodity — determines which sections they are asked to complete.
What's changed:
EU suppliers are now covered. Operators, micro/small primary operators (MSPOs), downstream operators and traders each receive the questions relevant to their role. The previous default questionnaire covered non-EU suppliers only.
Role-based routing. No supplier is asked questions that don't apply to their position in the supply chain.
Coverage across nine areas: policy and commitment; due diligence systems; production controls; risk assessment and mitigation; governance and review; supply chain traceability; certifications and evidence sharing; the EUDR Article 13 Simplified Due Diligence criteria.
The questionnaire remains available by default to every TradeAware account at no extra charge. Questionnaires your suppliers have already submitted remain available in your Documents table.

[NEW] Export your plots to CSV & GeoJSON
Select plots and download them straight from the bottom-bar Export button. Each export includes plot details and full Open Source Analysis results (Forest Cover 2020, Tree Cover Loss, and Forest Types breakdown), in CSV for reporting or GeoJSON for your GIS tools. A quick way to take your EUDR evidence into your own systems, reports, and audit trails. Available on Enterprise plans.
June 4, 2026
[UX] Clearer questionnaire status at a glance
Questionnaire status chips have refreshed colors, and dropdown menus inside questionnaire forms now have better contrast and readability. Faster to scan a long supplier list and see exactly where each one stands.
June 1, 2026
[NEW] Alerts when responses are missing
The questionnaires tab now shows an amber alert when no supplier response is on record — a clear visual cue that follow-up is still needed.
[NEW] Supplier Invitations Management
A new table shows every invitation you've sent to suppliers that hasn't yet been accepted, making it easy to see which suppliers to nudge.
[NEW] Open Source EUDR Supplier Questionnaire: A pre-built questionnaire for Suppliers built on the Preferred by Nature Due Diligence Toolkit framework. We’ve added three custom questions to ensure total coverage of EUDR Article 13 Simplified Due Diligence criteria (supply-chain complexity, risk of circumvention, and mixed origin). It is available by default to all accounts. Learn more in the user guide here

[SECURITY] Malware scanning for uploaded files
Files attached to questionnaires and supplier records are now automatically scanned for malware before being stored. Only safe files are accepted and accessible inside the platform.
May 19, 2026
[IMPROVED] Supplier status always editable
The status dropdown is now visible for suppliers without an assigned status, so you can set or update a supplier's status directly from the supplier view.
[UX] Cleaner questionnaire tab
Completed questionnaires no longer display a redundant "completed" label — less visual clutter, easier scanning.
April 22, 2026
[NEW] In-app notifications
TradeAware now shows a notification the moment a risk assessment completes or a supplier responds to a questionnaire. The notification panel filters by medium and high risk by default, so the alerts that need action surface first — and one click takes you straight to the relevant supplier or analysis.
[IMPROVED] Survey response validation
Survey responses now go through structured completion validation with enhanced parsing — making it easier to tell when a questionnaire has been fully submitted. Survey notifications also include country information for additional context at a glance.

[NEW] Multiple open source screening layers
Plot screening now combines three open-source data layers instead of one, giving you a clearer picture of what was on the ground at the EUDR cutoff (Dec 2020) and what changed after.
Previously, TradeAware used the JRC Global Forest Cover (2020) layer only. We've added:
Tree Cover Loss (post-2020) — change signal across all commodities
Global Forest Type (2020) — applied to timber plots only, to distinguish primary forest, naturally regenerating forest, and plantation
Why it matters: triage plots faster and avoid sending every flagged plot to Precision Analytics. For timber, the same tree cover loss in a primary forest vs a plantation means very different things — TradeAware now distinguishes them. For non-timber commodities, the combination of baseline + change gives a clean signal for potential conversion.

[NEW] TRACES availability indicator
When the TRACES integration is temporarily unavailable, the app now displays a clear indicator rather than failing silently, so you know when TRACES-dependent data may be incomplete.

Supplier documents aka Files and Questionnaires are now organized under nested tabs with a sticky footer, making it faster to switch between content types in the supplier view without losing your scroll position.

January 29, 2026
[NEW] Transactions support multiple suppliers

[API] Commodity data in the businesses/me endpoint
The GET /businesses/me endpoint now returns commodity information for your own business — a more complete business profile in a single call.
