VERDICT

Should I use Shiptheory?

Shipping automation software for ecommerce retailers - shiptheory.com

Worth it. Buy if you're a multichannel retailer shipping real daily volume across several carriers — reviewers report major time savings and strong support. Skip it if you ship a few parcels a week; a simpler tool or your carrier's own portal fits better.

Trial with your actual carriers; reviewer complaints exist but details are sparse.
