Your shipping bill is full of charges you've never questioned

A DTC brand shipping 3,000 packages a month at $6.50 average is spending $19,500/month on shipping. Buried inside that number: residential delivery surcharges ($5.70/package on UPS, $0 on USPS), dimensional weight penalties on boxes too big for the product, fuel surcharges that fluctuate weekly, and zone 5-8 rates that could be 30% cheaper on a different carrier.

Enterprise shippers use Shipware, 71lbs, or SpendLogic to audit their parcel spend. Those services target brands shipping $1M+/year. If you're spending $100K-$500K/year on shipping, nobody is looking at your data. Meanwhile, your Shopify admin has a CSV export with every shipment you've ever made — and nobody has analyzed it.

A Shipping Intelligence Report

Not a dashboard. A branded analysis document with dollar amounts on every finding and a step-by-step playbook for reducing your shipping costs.

01

Zone distribution analysis

Where your packages actually go. We map every shipment to its delivery zone and show you the cost distribution. If 60% of your volume ships to Zones 5-8, you're paying cross-country rates on the majority of orders — and a second fulfillment center or regional carrier could cut those costs significantly.

02

Surcharge breakdown

Every surcharge on every invoice, categorized and totaled: residential delivery, fuel, peak/demand, additional handling, address correction, Saturday delivery, signature required. We show you which surcharges are avoidable and which carriers charge less for each.

03

Dim-weight penalty analysis

Every shipment where you paid for dimensional weight instead of actual weight. We calculate the exact overpayment per SKU and recommend packaging changes that eliminate the penalty. A brand spending $4/package extra on 30% of shipments is burning $1,200+/month on air inside boxes.

04

Carrier rate comparison

Your actual rates vs. published rates vs. what you should be paying at your volume tier. We compare UPS, FedEx, USPS Ground Advantage, and regional carriers zone by zone, weight tier by weight tier. Most brands find one carrier is cheaper for Zones 1-4 and another for Zones 5-8.

05

Negotiation playbook

Specific rate targets per zone and weight tier to bring to your carrier rep. We tell you exactly what to ask for, what leverage you have (your annual volume, your zone mix, competitive quotes), and what discount percentage is realistic for your tier.

06

ShipStation routing rules

If you use ShipStation, we provide ready-to-import automation rules that route each order to the cheapest carrier based on zone and weight. No manual rate shopping needed — every order automatically goes to the optimal carrier.

Export your data. We do the rest.

1

Export your shipping data

Download 3-6 months of shipment history from Shopify, ShipStation, ShipBob, or your carrier invoice portal. CSV or Excel. Takes 2 minutes. We provide step-by-step export instructions for every platform.

2

We run the analysis

Every shipment is parsed by zone, weight, service level, carrier, and surcharge type. Statistical models flag outlier charges, identify dim-weight penalties, and compare your rates against benchmarks for your volume tier. No AI hallucinations — deterministic math on your actual invoices.

3

You get your report + walkthrough

Within 5 business days: a branded PDF report with every finding, every dollar amount, and a carrier negotiation playbook. Plus a 20-minute recorded video walkthrough explaining the results and what to do first.

Operations research, not guesswork

Academic rigor

PhD in engineering science. 13+ years teaching operations management and supply chain analytics. Your report is built by someone who teaches statistical analysis at the graduate level.

Industry experience

8+ years of hands-on industrial and consulting experience across logistics, distribution, and supply chain operations. We understand the operational reality behind the data.

Package-level precision

We don't sample your data. We analyze every single shipment. Statistical outlier detection flags individual invoices that deviate from your lane norms. Every dollar amount is traceable to a specific package, carrier, and charge.

Actionable output

You get a negotiation script with specific rate targets, not a dashboard with charts. Call your UPS rep, reference the numbers in the report, and ask for the discount. That's it.
