ShippingRates MCP Server

vinaybhosle/shippingrates-mcp

Connects Claude to real ocean shipping data across Maersk, Hapag-Lloyd, MSC, COSCO, ONE, and CMA CGM. Exposes 24 tools split between free operations like carrier search and port lookups, and paid calls for detention and demurrage calculations, freight rates, vessel schedules, inland haulage quotes, and full landed cost breakdowns. Paid tools use x402 USDC micropayments from $0.01 to $0.25 per call, no subscription required. Reach for this when building freight forwarding agents, shipment cost calculators, or supply chain analysis workflows that need carrier tariff data, port congestion metrics, and transit schedules. Also provides a free tier with 25 monthly API calls and a web dashboard for manual queries.

ShippingRates MCP Server

License: MIT

Ocean container shipping intelligence for AI agents — real carrier tariff data, detention & demurrage, freight rates, vessel schedules, and total landed cost across 6 major carriers.

Remote MCP endpoint: https://mcp.shippingrates.org/mcp

Overview

Carriers covered: Maersk · Hapag-Lloyd · MSC · COSCO · ONE · CMA CGM

Quickstart

Connect any MCP-compatible client to the remote endpoint:

{
  "mcpServers": {
