CommerceShip supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP), which lets AI assistants connect directly to your shipping data.

What is MCP?

MCP is a standard protocol that allows AI tools to read and interact with external data sources. CommerceShip provides an MCP server that AI assistants (like Claude or ChatGPT) can connect to for real-time access to your shipping, order, and cost data.

What you can do with MCP

  • Query shipment status and tracking from an AI assistant
  • Get rate quotes and cost analysis through natural language
  • Review order details and fulfillment status
  • Analyze spending patterns and carrier performance

Safety controls

High-risk actions (like generating labels, processing refunds, or triggering batch operations) require explicit approval before the AI can execute them. This prevents accidental changes while still giving you the speed of AI-assisted operations.
