How to create delivery orders with your AI

Connect Shippify to your agent to turn chat commands into live shipment requests. Once connected, you just provide the destination and package details to get things moving.

Short answer

How can I use my AI to schedule shipments?

You give your agent the destination address and package specifics in a chat. The AI then uses Shippify to generate quotes and submit the delivery orders directly. You'll see the results of these actions immediately in your shipping dashboard.

The results

Where your shipments land

The AI handles the data entry and pricing checks so you don't have to.

QUOTE

Instant price checks

The agent calculates costs based on your package details. You get the price before any order is finalized.

ORDER

Live shipment creation

Once you approve a price, the agent submits the delivery. The shipment is officially scheduled in Shippify.

LOG

Data confirmation

The agent confirms the destination and package weight were recorded correctly. You get a clear summary of the order details.

HUMAN

Manual review needed

If the package details are missing or the address is invalid, the agent will stop and ask you for the missing info.

The workflow

What your AI does when you request a shipment.

The agent acts as the bridge between your conversation and the Shippify logistics engine.

  1. Calculate costs

    The agent looks up the shipping rates for your specific route and package weight.

    get_delivery_quote
  2. Submit shipment

    After you confirm the price, the agent sends the destination and package data to create the order.

    create_delivery
  3. Verify details

    The agent checks the submitted data against your request to ensure the destination matches.

    create_delivery
  4. Report status

FAQ

How the Shippify MCP behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI cancel an existing shipment?

    No. The current tools only allow for getting quotes and creating new delivery orders.

  • 02

    Does the AI automatically charge my card?

    The AI submits the order through the tool, but it doesn't manage your payment methods or billing settings.

  • 03

    What happens if I give an incomplete address?

    The tool will fail to create the order, and the agent will ask you to provide the full destination.

  • 04

    Can I change the package weight after the order is created?

    No. You would need to handle modifications directly in the Shippify interface.

  • 05

    Does the AI need to know my login password?

    No. You connect via Vinkius, which handles the connection securely without sharing your password with the agent.
