Who it is for
Small merchants and occasional senders who compare carriers on each shipment.
Shippo
Multi-carrier shipping rates, labels, and tracking
Overview
What Shippo does
Shippo aggregates carriers, and the record names USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL among more than forty. Through this app a parcel is handled from quote to delivery without leaving the conversation.
Live rates can be compared before a choice is made on price or service. Labels are bought and printed for domestic and international shipments, with customs paperwork covered on the latter. Addresses can be checked and normalized before anything is purchased, and packages followed across carriers afterward.
Requests are phrased plainly: quote a small box between two cities, ask which customs form a gift needs, check where the last shipment got to. The listed skills also include batch shipping and shipping analysis.
What stands out
It goes past rate comparison to buying the label and filling in customs declarations.

Where Shippo is listed
Shippo ships this on both marketplaces: Shippo is listed in the Claude connectors directory and in the ChatGPT apps directory, under the same publisher domain.
Only 392 of the 3,150 products in this directory are listed in both marketplaces. One MCP server can serve both surfaces; what differs is each platform's listing and review process.

Claude listing
In the Claude connectors directory
Shippo publishes 4 tools to Claude, a deliberately narrow surface; only 17.2% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer.
The median Claude-listed connector filed under Productivity publishes 12, so this one sits 8 tools below its bucket's median, 357th of 462.
It falls in the 4-6 tools band, which holds 16.2% of the Claude directory.
Shippo publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally.
Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.

Shippo carries partner verification in the Claude directory, which 474 of 1,253 listings do (37.8%). That is a review step past self-publishing, not an Anthropic-built server.
In the publisher's words
How Shippo describes it
Shippo is multi-carrier shipping software that lets e-commerce businesses, marketplaces, and platforms connect to shipping carriers around the world (USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL, and 40+ more) from one API. This connector brings that to Claude: compare real-time rates, create shipments and buy or refund labels, validate and standardize addresses, track packages, handle customs for international orders, schedule pickups, generate manifests, and run batch shipments, all against your Shippo account. Read and write are separate tools, so state-changing actions can require approval. Sign in once with Shippo over OAuth.
