What MCP Is
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard that allows AI assistants (like ChatGPT, Claude, or custom agents) to interact with external services. An MCP-compatible logistics API means AI agents can get quotes, book shipments, and track vehicles through natural language commands.
Why It Matters for Shipping
Imagine telling your AI assistant: 'Ship my car from LA to New York, open transport, pick up next week.' The AI agent interacts with ShipCargo's MCP-compatible API to get a quote, confirm the booking, and set up tracking — all without you visiting a website or making a phone call.
