Shipping & Insurance Platforms Built for High-Value Goods
Custom FedEx and multi-carrier integrated systems with automated insurance calculation, billing, and customs filing — for companies that ship jewelry, luxury goods, and anything too valuable to trust to off-the-shelf software.
The Incumbents Weren’t Built for Your Business
If you ship high-value goods, you know the trap.
The dominant insured-shipping platforms charge premium rates, lock you into their coverage rules, and give you zero control over billing, exceptions, or customer experience. Carrier declared-value coverage caps out and costs too much. And building your own platform means finding engineers who understand insurance calculation, carrier APIs, and customs law — not just code.
Most companies stay stuck overpaying because the alternative looks impossible.
It isn’t. We’ve built it.
Everything a High-Value Shipping Operation Needs
Carrier Integration
Full FedEx API integration (and multi-carrier where needed): rate quoting, label generation, tracking, address validation, and carrier-data reconciliation. Built defensively, because carrier APIs change and your shipments can’t stop.
Insurance Engine
Automated coverage calculation based on declared value, commodity type, destination, and your own underwriting rules. Insurance charges applied correctly on every shipment — no silent failures, no manual math.
Billing & Credit Systems
Customer credit limits, automated invoicing with itemized charge breakdowns, duplicate-proof invoice numbering, and payment integration. The money path is where we’re most careful, because a billing bug is a refund.
Exception Management
Flagged-shipment queues, permission-based approvals, and audit trails — so high-risk shipments get human eyes before they get labels.
International & Customs
EEI/AES filing, HS code handling, commercial invoices, and the customs documentation that keeps international high-value shipments moving instead of sitting in holds.
Built to Compete
Every module is designed around your rules rather than an incumbent’s defaults — which is the whole reason a custom platform pays for itself.
We’ve Already Built This — In Production
A complete FedEx-based shipping and insurance platform
Built for the high-value goods industry and designed to compete with the market’s dominant incumbent. Automated insurance calculation, credit billing, exception queues, and an international module with EEI/customs filing. It’s live today, processing insured shipments daily.
Insurance calculated per shipment
Coverage derived from declared value, commodity type and destination rules — no manual math anywhere in the flow.
Duplicate-proof billing
Itemized invoices, customer credit limits, and numbering that cannot collide. The money path is the part we test hardest.

Launch & Support
Production deployment, monitoring, and ongoing development as your operation grows.
The Questions You’re Actually Asking
Most of our clients did too. The question is what you’re paying annually for software you don’t control, and what a platform built around YOUR rules would save. That’s exactly what the systems call quantifies.
Our team built a production platform in this exact space — insurance calculation, carrier liability rules, EEI filing. Bring your hardest domain question to the first call and test us.
Serious platforms in this space run $25,000–$100,000+ depending on scope, with ongoing support from $3,000/month. If your annual incumbent spend is near that, the math usually favors owning your platform.
