About Shippo
Shippo is a multi-carrier shipping platform that helps ecommerce merchants compare rates, print labels, and track shipments across USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL, and dozens of other carriers. By connecting Shippo to Bookbag, the AI agent can access live tracking data for every shipment created through your Shippo account. When customers ask about their package, Bookbag queries Shippo for the current carrier scan events, delivery status, and any exceptions — giving a precise, up-to-date answer without needing a human to look anything up.
