How does this MCP calculate billable weight?

The agent uses the calculate_billable_weight capability to compare the actual weight against the volumetric weight. It then selects the higher of the two values as the billable weight.

Can I use this with any AI client?

Yes, this MCP works with any client that supports the Model Context Protocol, such as Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

Does it handle different carrier divisors?

Yes, you can use the get_standard_divisors capability to find common industry constants or provide your own divisor for specific calculations.

What happens if I enter invalid dimensions?

The validate_dimensions capability will check the input and return an error if the dimensions are physically impossible, such as having negative values.

Do I need to host this myself?

No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and start using the capabilities.

What is dimensional weight?

Dimensional weight is a theoretical weight calculated from a package's volume and a carrier's specific divisor.

How is billable weight determined?

The billable weight is the higher value between the package's actual physical weight and its calculated dimensional weight.

Can I get standard carrier divisors?

Yes, you can use the get_standard_divisors capability to retrieve common domestic and international volumetric constants.

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Shipping Dimensional Weight.

01
Calculate billable weight
This capability calculates the final weight a carrier will actually charge you for a package. It compares actual weight against volumetric weight to find the higher value.
02
Calculate dimensional weight
This capability determines the volumetric weight of a package. It uses the package dimensions and a specific divisor to find the space-based weight.
03
Get standard divisors
This capability retrieves common industry constants used by carriers. It provides the standard divisors needed for accurate dimensional weight math.
04
Validate dimensions
This capability checks if your package measurements are logical. It ensures you aren't using negative numbers or impossible dimensions for your calculations.

Real work

What teams actually run

Shipping Cost Estimation

An agent calculates the billable weight to give a customer an accurate shipping quote.

Data Cleaning

The AI uses dimension validation to flag incorrect or impossible package entries in a database.

Carrier Compliance

Your agent uses standard divisors to ensure calculations match specific carrier requirements.

Automated Freight Auditing

The agent compares calculated weights against carrier invoices to find discrepancies.

One connector, every AI

Shipping Dimensional Weight works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Shipping Dimensional Weight to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.
