Simulation
Prove cost savings to prospects before you onboard them.
Model the impact of a new tenant, carrier mix, or pricing scheme against your real shipment history before you commit. Used in sales cycles to win RFPs. Used in ops to stress-test peak season decisions.
Orca AI Analytics
Spot account-level margin erosion before it becomes a quarterly problem.
See carrier performance, lane economics, and account-level profitability in real time vs. a monthly report. Powered by an AI analytics engine purpose-built for shipping data, with natural language querying for custom visualizations and deeper analysis.
Delivery Promise
Show accurate dates at checkout. Reduce post-purchase surprises.
Generate precise delivery date promises at the moment of purchase — backed by ML models trained on your network's real performance. Better conversion, greater customer satisfaction.
Delivery Date Enhancement
Tighter, more accurate delivery dates at every customer touchpoint.
Improve the delivery dates shown to customers by combining your OMS inventory data with Shipium's transit prediction models. Upgrade dates from static, carrier-provided ranges to precise commitments.
Shipment Tracking
Real-time visibility into every shipment, across every carrier.
Unify tracking events across every carrier in your network. Power post-purchase management with clean, standardized data.
Route Optimization
Pick the right origins and time every shipment accurately.
Select the optimal fulfillment node for every order — balancing inventory, carrier availability, cost, and SLA. Handles splits, pre-commit routing, and origin re-selection when upstream conditions change.
Rating Engine
Optimize every carrier decision at the moment of shipment.
Score every available service against cost, speed, and SLA at shipment time. Apply client-specific markup rules. Downgrade air to ground whenever SLAs will hold.
Label Engine
Generate compliant labels at scale. Handle offline scenarios.
Print labels for every carrier, every service, and every compliance requirement including offline scenarios, and hazmat shipments. Built to handle peak volume without falling down.
Carrier Load Management
Balance volume across carriers in real time.
Shift volume across carriers dynamically based on capacity, performance, and contract commitments. Prevent over-allocation to any one carrier. Stay inside your negotiated rate brackets.
Pack Station
Standardize pack workflows across nodes and tenants.
A pack station UI that works across warehouses, nodes, and tenant setups. Drive consistent pack quality, capture accurate dims and weights at source, and reduce downstream billing disputes.
Ship-from-Store
Turn stores into fulfillment nodes without a rebuild.
Enable store fulfillment with the same rules, rate shopping, and label engine your warehouses use. Orchestrate the store → carrier handoff without bolting on a separate system.
Address Validation
Catch bad addresses before they become exception costs.
Avoid address correction surcharges, failed deliveries, and return-to-sender fees — which compound across volume.
Dropshipping
Run vendor-fulfilled orders through the same shipping system.
Extend Shipium's rating, labeling, and tracking to dropship partners so vendor-fulfilled orders hit the same SLAs and cost thresholds as your own shipments.
Mode Optimization
Pick parcel vs. LTL vs. freight automatically.
Evaluate whether parcel or LTL delivers the best cost-to-SLA outcome and route accordingly.
Zone Skipping
Move volume injected closer to destination.
Consolidate shipments destined for the same region, line-haul them to an injection point, and hand off to the carrier for final-mile — collapsing zones and cutting cost on high-volume lanes.
Packaging Optimization
Reduce DIM weight charges. Standardize packaging by SKU.
Recommend the right box for every order based on SKU dimensions, shipment composition, and carrier DIM rules. Cut dimensional weight charges and reduce packaging waste at the same time.
International Shipping
Ship cross-border without a cross-border team.
Pre-integrated international carrier network including Passport, Asendia, and regional specialists. Handle duties, landed cost, and compliance documentation without building custom connections per lane.
Billing Management
Bill clients accurately. Bill them faster.
Generate client invoices from real shipment data — with fully-loaded costs, markup rules, and accessorial handling already applied.
Invoice Management
Reconcile carrier invoices against expected charges.
Ingest carrier invoices via API, EDI, or file transfer. Match line items against shipment-time rates. Flag discrepancies down to the accessorial. Recover surcharge overcharges that today slip through.
Digital Twin
A live model of your network.
Every shipment, carrier decision, rate, and outcome in your network — continuously modeled. Digital Twins power ML optimization, make Simulation possible, and ensure Orca AI Analytics are accurate and actionable.
Rules Engine
Configure global and tenant-specific logic without an IT ticket.
A universal rules engine that sits under every shipping decision — carrier selection, packaging, labeling, routing. Parcel ops leaders change logic from the console. No service orders or prolonged queues.
Console
Centralized control across every shipping decision.
One interface to manage tenants, carriers, rules, rates, and analytics. Replaces the disconnected mix of carrier portals, rate cards, and WMS shipping modules most 3PLs stitch together today.
Carrier Network
60+ pre-integrated carriers. 200+ service methods.
Nationals, regionals, internationals, and alternatives — all pre-integrated and ready to configure. When you win a client who needs a specific carrier, you add it in days, not weeks.
Integrations
Get the most from your current stack.
Configuration-ready integration frameworks with the WMS, OMS, and ERP systems 3PLs depend on — Manhattan, Blue Yonder, Deposco, Logiwa, Extensiv, and more.
ML Models
The intelligence layer under every Shipium decision.
Purpose-built ML models trained on the industry's largest shipping dataset — powering accurate delivery promises, optimal carrier selection, and the predictive analytics your team runs every day.

Onboarding a new tenant
A carrier surcharge change just hit
Intelligent ground downgrades
Carrier RFP season
Peak season planning
End-of-quarter reconciliation
From contract signed to first label printed in days, not quarters.
Without Shipium
A new client signs. Your team now spends weeks building their carrier contracts, surcharge logic, markup rules, and label configurations into a patchwork of systems — by hand. IT opens tickets. Ops writes spreadsheets. The client asks when they can start shipping, and your only honest answer is "soon." Every onboarding is a custom project.
With Shipium
Contract terms, rate cards, markup rules, and carrier selection logic go into the Console as configuration, not code. Shipium's integration framework connects to the client's order source once. The same rules engine that runs your other tenants runs theirs. Onboarding stops being a bottleneck on revenue.
Outcome
Drastically reduce new client onboarding time.
A surcharge changed this morning, and
you updated your rules before lunch.
you updated your rules before lunch.
Without Shipium
FedEx announces a mid-year peak season surcharge increase. Effective date: eleven days out. You now need to update rate logic across every tenant, adjust markup rules so your margin doesn't absorb the increase, and communicate changes to clients whose contracts pass surcharges through. Your team files IT tickets. Your margin bleeds until the change is live. Some tenants find out about the increase from your invoice instead of from you.
With Shipium
Shipium's carrier data ingestion updates rates the day the carrier publishes them. Your rules engine lets you roll surcharge logic to specific tenants, specific lanes, or specific service levels directly from the Console UI.
Outcome
Surcharge changes roll out in hours instead of the days or weeks IT-dependent updates take.
Downgrade air to ground — automatically —
wherever the SLA still holds.
wherever the SLA still holds.
Without Shipium
A tenant pays for 2-day air. The shipment lives 80 miles from destination. Your system books 2-day air anyway because nobody wrote a rule for the edge case. Margin walks out the door, one shipment at a time.
With Shipium
Rating Engine scores every available service against the SLA promised to the customer. When ground will arrive on time, ground gets booked. The savings flow to your buy/sell margin, automatically, on every shipment.

Walk into carrier negotiations with a complete view and understanding of your network.
Without Shipium
An annual carrier RFP is sixty days out. Your team builds a spreadsheet model of what each carrier's proposed rates would cost you, guessing at service mix and lane allocation. The analysis takes weeks. The result is directional at best, because it's built on last year's averages, not your actual shipment-level reality. You walk into the negotiation with a rough estimate and limited leverage.
With Shipium
Simulation runs each carrier's proposed rate card against your actual shipment history — every lane, every service, every accessorial. You see exactly what each proposal would cost, where you'd save, and where you'd lose. Scenarios run rapidly. You walk into the negotiation knowing precisely which carrier wins which lanes, and what concessions are worth asking for.
Modules involved
Outcome
More informed negotiations and contracts optimized for your exact requirements.
Know what peak will look like before peak actually hits.
Without Shipium
Q3 planning kicks off. Your team needs to forecast peak volume, estimate carrier capacity, model service level impacts, and plan for contingencies. Most of that analysis lives in spreadsheets built off last year's numbers (plus some gut feel). When peak hits, you react. Capacity bottlenecks show up in real time. Carrier performance degrades before you can shift volume. The post-mortem always includes the phrase "we should have seen that coming."
With Shipium
Simulation models peak against your current state — actual tenant mix, actual carrier contracts, actual node capacity — and projects where service levels degrade, where margin compresses, and which lanes are most at risk. Run what-if scenarios on alternate carrier allocations, routing decisions, injection strategies and more. When peak hits, you've already stress-tested the decisions you'll need to make.
Outcome
Peak visibility ahead of time, not after the fact.
Close the quarter on accurate numbers. Not on best-available estimates.
Without Shipium
End of Q3. Finance needs final shipping P&L by tenant. Carrier invoices arrived in various states — some via EDI, some as PDFs, some by portal download. Billing data lives in one system, execution data in another, carrier invoices in a third. Reconciliation is manual, incomplete, and takes two weeks. Some surcharges never get matched.
With Shipium
Carrier invoices ingest automatically into Invoice Management, match line-by-line against the rates used at execution, and flag every discrepancy. Client billing pulls from the same data layer, so what you billed the tenant reconciles to what the carrier charged you. Margin by tenant, by lane, by service level is visible on the last day of the quarter.
Modules involved
Outcome
Quarter-close reconciliation from weeks to days.
