Trusted by logistics teams

"We were manually looking up NMFC codes for every quote — it was killing our response time. Plugged the API into our TMS and now class lookups happen automatically. Cut our quoting time in half, honestly."


Mike Reynolds

VP of Operations, Cascade Freight Solutions

"The documentation is solid, took us maybe 2 hours to integrate. The sub-item data with density breakdowns is exactly what we needed for our automated classification engine. Way better than scraping PDFs."


Sarah Chen

Lead Developer, ShipRight Logistics

"Our billing team used to spend hours cross-referencing NMFC codes. Now it's all automated through the API. The density calculator alone has saved us from hundreds of reclass disputes this year."
