What it is
LoadingMCP plans container and truck loads in 3D and checks plans against shipping compliance considerations. It selects equipment and packs cargo using orientation and stacking rules, with support for mixed fleets and weight constraints. Users can paste packing lists from Excel or upload CSV files and map columns for planning. The planner calculates centre of gravity and eccentricity, and can rearrange cargo toward a target balance. Its checks include CTU packing, IMDG 7.2.4 segregation, SOLAS VGM, McKee carton crush, axle loads, and the US Federal Bridge Formula. It can produce a cargo-securing list with dunnage, airbags, and blocking, along with a numbered stuffing work order. Plans can be exported as PDF, Excel, or JSON. The hosted MCP server connects with Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf, and a REST API can be used from a TMS. The free browser plan provides the planner and compliance verdict without login or card. Real loads through the REST API or MCP production optimizer require a Business plan and API key. The maker says compliance results are decision support, not a legal certificate.
For and against
For
- Plans both container and truck loads in 3D.
- Accepts pasted Excel lists and uploaded CSV files.
- Calculates centre of gravity and eccentricity.
- Exports plans as PDF, Excel, or JSON.
- Free browser planner requires no login or card.
Against
- API and production optimizer loads require Business plan and API key.
- Compliance verdict is not a legal certificate.
- Paid plan prices are quoted to volume.
The verdict
LoadingMCP combines load planning, balance calculations, compliance checks, and work-order exports. Treat its compliance result as decision support, with the shipper of record responsible for the declaration.
Who it suits
LoadingMCP suits freight desks and teams that hand loading work to floor staff or integrated systems. The browser plan may suit users who want to plan loads without signing in, while API production use requires Business access.
