About the Project

ShipHero is a SaaS platform that replaces manual spreadsheets and fragmented tools with a single system of record for ecommerce fulfillment. It combines a web Backoffice for warehouse managers, mobile scanning and picking apps for floor staff, integrations to ecommerce platforms (Shopify, marketplaces), and carrier/returns partners to automate the order lifecycle from purchase to delivery. ShipHero targets both brands managing their own fulfillment and 3PLs that host multiple clients — offering multi-warehouse, multi-client support and APIs so the platform can be integrated into enterprise stacks or third-party routing layers. The company also publishes developer docs and migration guidance so integrators can automate flows and build on top of ShipHero.

Challenges in Developing a Genetic Testing App

Scalability for 3PL Operations

Supporting very high order volumes, many client accounts, and fast onboarding/migrations for new customers.

Developer Experience & Security

providing robust public APIs (REST → GraphQL migration), proper auth flows, idempotency, retryable webhooks and developer tooling.

Real-time Availability & Race Conditions

Preventing oversells when orders arrive from many sales channels and concurrent picking/receiving is occurring

Solutions: Our software agency provided

We designed robust, multi-tenant inventory models and idempotent transaction flows that prevent oversells and support multi-warehouse, multi-client 3PL operations. We built connector hubs that normalize carrier and marketplace APIs, add retryable webhooks, and provided SDKs/collections so partners can integrate reliably. We implemented high-throughput fulfillment pipelines and autoscaling workers plus mobile-first picking and packing workflows to raise productivity and accuracy. Finally, we provided migration tooling, sandbox environments, dashboards and developer enablement to shorten onboarding time and reduced operational risk.

Results: Measurable Outcomes & Business Impact

Integrations, automation and transactional safeguards eliminated many common fulfillment errors and prevented oversells, raising order accuracy and customer trust. Faster pick/pack workflows and mobile optimizations increased throughput per worker and reduced order cycle time, letting warehouses handle higher daily volumes without hiring proportionally more staff. Connector patterns and retryable webhooks reduced integration failures and payment/label errors, increasing on-time shipments and decreasing manual rework. Together these improvements boosted fulfillment capacity, reduced operational costs, and increased client retention and revenue for brands and 3PLs using the platform.
