Features

Manage your growing shipping business all in one platform.

Rate shop, buy labels, track exceptions, and give AI agents the same shipping context your operators use every day.

Item shipping platform modules connected across orders, rates, labels, and agents

Simple and reliable

Built for entrepreneurs, operators, and growing fulfillment teams.

Start with the three actions every shipping desk needs: compare, create, and track.

Compare UPS and USPS rates

Rate shop by service, package preset, ship date, delivery promise, and label cost before the operator commits.

Create labels fast

Create one label, bulk upload a spreadsheet, or process imported store orders with saved parcel rules.

Track every shipment

Keep status, events, exceptions, and customer notifications attached to the original order record.

Integrations

Connect your selling channels and spreadsheets.

Import sales from storefronts, marketplaces, CSV uploads, and fulfillment tools. Operators can buy labels from the queue instead of rebuilding shipments by hand.

Store imports

Bring storefront orders into the shipping queue with product and address data intact.

Marketplace orders

Collect seller-channel orders and compare services before labels are bought.

CSV uploads

Drop spreadsheets into a mapped import flow for batch label creation.

Fulfillment desks

Keep operators, parcel presets, and print tasks working from the same queue.

Return portals

Create return labels and route parcel events back to customer service.

Carrier accounts

Use connected carrier credentials, service rules, and billing controls.

Customer emails

Send tracking, exception, and delivery updates from shipment records.

MCP agents

Expose rates, labels, tracking, and exceptions to AI clients through MCP.

All features

A small parcel desk that feels native to Item.

Everything is designed around repeat operation: fewer clicks, stable data, and clear exception handling.

Automatic address completion

Validate addresses as operators type and reuse trusted destinations from prior shipments.

Batch shipping

Buy identical or mixed parcel labels from store imports and spreadsheet uploads.

Printer friendly

Use desktop printers, thermal printers, packing slip formats, and label reprint controls.

International forms

Collect customs details and choose affordable international service levels.

Tracking emails

Send branded tracking notifications with the order and parcel status already filled in.

Carrier pickups

Plan handoff windows and keep drop-off or pickup tasks visible to the team.

Shipment reporting

Review spend, service level mix, label refunds, and exceptions across the store.

Returns desk

Create return labels, receive parcel events, and route restock decisions back to operations.

Account controls

Keep label buying, refunds, carrier accounts, and agent access controlled by role.

Rate clarity

Savings are visible before purchase.

Operators see the tradeoff between retail reference price, ship.item.com label cost, service class, and promise date before the label is printed.
