RateShip

Three shipping providers, one API you only have to learn once.

The problem

Every shipping provider models the same three things differently: what a rate is, what a label is, and how they tell you something changed.

Swapping providers, or running two at once for redundancy, usually means rewriting the integration and re-verifying every webhook signature by hand.

The approach

RateShip normalizes rates, labels and webhook verification into one typed surface. Providers are adapters, so adding or replacing one is a config change.

It ships with no runtime dependencies, so it drops into a serverless function without dragging half of npm along with it.

Outcome

Teams can price against three carriers at checkout and switch defaults without touching product code. The typed surface means a bad field is a compile error, not a support ticket.
