Kids Aren’t the Only Ones Back in Class

Yes, supply chain platforms need to go to school also. Or at least they should. And in our effort to deliver users the best shipping app on the market, we're implementing advanced machine learning to help continuously improve the Shippabo platform and user experience.

Here are just a few features we are looking to implement using advanced machine learning:

Highly accurate delivery dates

Predictive and actionable recommendations

Access to the best shipping rates

Documentation assistance

And that’s just the beginning. We’re excited to embark on this journey, and for you to join us!

SKU-level Visibility

One of the amazing features of the Shippabo platform is a product report that allows importers to store details for their product, down to the SKU level. We have a simple-to-follow template that allows importers to add hundreds of products to the database within seconds. Never scramble to find an HTS code again!

With this product database, you can store all of the HTS codes that you use for each of your SKU’s, conveniently located within the same platform that you manage your shipments within. You will have visibility into what container each of your SKUs is moving in, which can be invaluable information to have when tracking your shipment.

Upon receipt of your commercial documents, our team will enter your product data into the platform, allowing you to see details such as your unit value per each piece of your SKU. This feature is also helpful with inventory management, as at any time, you can see how many pieces of each SKU you have currently shipping, arriving soon, and recently delivered. You can even refine your product view by searching specific SKU’s, so you can generate a report to track that one SKU your warehouse is waiting on.
