What you can do with e-Courier in Claude and ChatGPT

For courier operations teams with customer-authorized e-Courier API access.

Check a delivery order

Read shipment status, pickup/delivery stops and tracking details without changing the courier job.

Check price and availability for a customer with pickup/delivery addresses and optional parcel details. No job is created.

Review a driver’s current work

Inspect orders assigned to a driver and read the driver’s manifest.

Find customer shipping addresses

Find a customer record and its saved ship-to addresses. Only retrieve records authorized for your AI service.

Review invoice details

List invoices in a date range and inspect their fee lines. No billing or payment changes are exposed.

How do I connect e-Courier?

Before you connect

The login page asks for your e-Courier database name, API username and API password.

Optional: Assigned API URL.

The database name is the first part of your e-Courier address (https://yourcompany.e-courier.com). API access is enabled once per account by e-Courier support (submit a ticket if login fails). Use a dedicated e-Courier user for the API: its permissions decide what this server can do. Your username and password are stored encrypted in this connection and used only to log in to e-Courier on your behalf; they are not sent to the LLM. This initial release has 17 read-only tools, including delivery price quotes; creating or updating courier jobs is unavailable. Requested shipment/customer contacts, addresses, driver, manifest and invoice data reaches your chosen AI client and LLM provider. Only connect data you may process with that AI service. No automatic retries or operation replay; a refused cached session is cleared for the next explicit request. Disable the dedicated API user or change its password to stop new logins; already-issued vendor tokens can remain valid until revoked or expired (20 idle days). Usage/billing identity follows database and username; vendor charges are separate. The optional API URL supports the vendor-assigned standard or post-prefixed hostname for the same database.

No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.

Claude Code

Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:

claude mcp add --transport http e-courier https://e-courier.usefulapi.io/mcp

Cursor

Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "e-courier": {
      "url": "https://e-courier.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "e-courier": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://e-courier.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Codex

Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:

codex mcp add e-courier --url https://e-courier.usefulapi.io/mcp
codex mcp login e-courier

Other clients

Windsurf, Cline, Zed and other MCP clients: add this URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser.

https://e-courier.usefulapi.io/mcp

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your e-Courier database name, API username and API password. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

Each paid plan covers this e-Courier server only. Ask your AI to run ecourier_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with ecourier_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with ecourier_upgrade before then undoes the cancel.

Your usefulapi plan · 4

  • Usage status (free-tier meter)ecourier_usage_status
    Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
  • Request a missing featureecourier_request_feature
    Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the e-Courier tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter.
  • Upgrade to Pro or Pro+ecourier_upgrade
    Get a paid plan for e-Courier (the free tier caps monthly usage). Pro: 10,000 tool calls a month, for normal use — plan "monthly" ($9/month) or "yearly" ($90/year, 2 months free). Pro+: 100,000 tool calls a month, for automations and heavy use — plan "plus" ($39/month) or "plus_yearly" ($390/year). Without a plan it returns both Pro and Pro+, each with a payment link, for the user to choose; with a plan, one link. An existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place (needs confirm: true; the price difference for the rest of the period is charged at once). Cancel any time: the plan then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. A link opens Stripe Checkout in the browser; after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter.
  • Cancel the Pro subscriptionecourier_cancel_subscription
    Cancel the caller's e-Courier Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run ecourier_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter.

FAQ

What can I do with e-Courier in Claude or ChatGPT?

Check a delivery order. Quote a delivery. Review a driver’s current work. Find customer shipping addresses. Review invoice details. See what you can do for the details.

Is this an official e-Courier product?

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by e-Courier. The server calls the e-Courier API with your own e-Courier access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.

Can I connect e-Courier to Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.

What do I need to connect?

The login page asks for your e-Courier database name, API username and API password. See Before you connect for where to find them.

Do I put my e-Courier key or an Authorization header in the client config?

No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your e-Courier database name, API username and API password. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

How do you keep my e-Courier credentials?

The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the e-Courier API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in e-Courier.

Can the AI change my e-Courier data?

All 17 e-Courier tools are marked read-only.

What does it cost?

The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with 10,000 tool calls / month. Pro+ costs $39/mo or $390/yr, with 100,000 tool calls / month. Each subscription covers this e-Courier server only. Cancel any time: your paid plan then runs to the end of the paid period. Run ecourier_usage_status to see how many calls you used.

How do I subscribe or cancel?

Ask the AI to run ecourier_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. After you confirm, your existing subscription changes in place, keeps its billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. To cancel, run ecourier_cancel_subscription. Your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period.

What if a e-Courier tool that I need is missing?

Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with ecourier_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.

Which AI clients can I use?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.

This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
