Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureBox-smart helps merchants simplify packing by automatically selecting the smallest box that fits each order. Merchants configure product dimensions and available box sizes once, and the app calculates the most suitable box whenever an order is placed. Box-smart then updates the order with the selected box, reducing manual packing decisions and improving fulfillment consistency.
Stop guessing which box to use. BoxPack IQ automatically matches every order with the right box using 3D bin-packing — based on product dimensions, weight, or item count. Multi-box orders are split into separate fulfillments with individual tracking and packing slips. A built-in Packing Station gives your warehouse team clear packing instructions, printable labels, and bulk processing.
