Freight Right Connector Now Available in Claude, Bringing Freight Operations Directly Into AI Workflows

October 08, 2026

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 8, 2026 - Freight Right Global Logistics today announced that the Freight Right connector is now listed in Claude, giving shippers a direct way to connect their Freight Right account with Anthropic’s artificial intelligence assistant and manage common freight and logistics tasks through conversation.

The listing makes Freight Right’s publicly available Model Context Protocol (MCP) connection directly discoverable to Claude users. Freight Right MCP is available for public use and allows customers to connect compatible AI assistants with Freight Right’s logistics capabilities, including freight quoting, shipment tracking, document intake, custom pricing requests and booking workflows.

Once connected, customers can use Claude to request freight quotes, check shipment status, review exceptions, upload shipping documents, request custom pricing and begin booking workflows without moving between multiple systems.

The Claude listing builds on Freight Right’s broader rollout of Freight Right MCP, which gives shippers and developers a public way to connect AI assistants with live freight and logistics operations through Model Context Protocol, an open standard for connecting AI systems with outside tools and data.

“AI becomes much more useful in logistics when it can work with the systems that actually move the freight,” said Robert Khachatryan, chief executive officer of Freight Right Global Logistics. “Making Freight Right MCP publicly available means customers are not limited to a closed demo or proprietary interface. They can connect supported AI environments directly to Freight Right and use natural language to work with their freight.”

Freight operations directly inside Claude

Once Freight Right is connected, customers can use Claude for common day-to-day logistics tasks including freight quoting, shipment tracking, container status, shipment exceptions, custom quote requests, freight option comparison and booking requests.

Rather than beginning with a traditional freight form, customers can describe what they need conversationally.

A shipper can ask Claude to price a lane, locate an active shipment, identify shipments that are delayed or determine what freight is scheduled to arrive during a given period.

For supported shipments, Freight Right can return available pricing directly through the workflow. When a shipment requires manual review, Claude can send the request to Freight Right’s pricing team without requiring the customer to start a separate form or email thread.

From shipping documents to freight quotes

The Freight Right connector can also use shipment information already available in the Claude conversation.

Customers can upload a packing list, commercial invoice, spreadsheet or other shipping document and ask Claude to use that information to prepare a freight request. Freight Right MCP can work with details such as origin, destination, dimensions, weight, piece count and commodity information without requiring the customer to re-enter the same data manually.

This allows the quoting process to begin with the documents shippers already use to manage their freight rather than requiring them to translate that information into another interface.

Shipment status with additional context

The connector also gives customers access to Freight Right shipment information through Claude.

Customers can ask questions such as:

“Which shipments are late?”

“What arrives this week?”

“Where is my container?”

“Has this shipment cleared customs?”

For connected customers, Freight Right can combine current shipment information with relevant context available through the logistics workflow, helping customers understand not only where a shipment is but also what may require attention.

This approach extends the role of the AI assistant beyond basic shipment lookup and toward ongoing freight management.

Quoting, tracking and booking through the same conversation

Booking workflows are also available through Freight Right MCP.

After reviewing an available freight option, a customer can continue through the same conversational workflow to prepare a booking request. Freight Right maintains the required customer confirmation before a shipment is booked.

That creates a continuous path from providing shipment information to requesting pricing, reviewing freight options, preparing a booking and following the shipment after it begins moving.

Freight Right MCP supports logistics workflows across ocean, air and ground transportation and is available for public use through compatible AI environments.

“Freight has traditionally required customers to move between email, portals, documents and operating systems just to complete a single shipment,” Khachatryan said. “By making Freight Right MCP publicly available, we are opening those freight capabilities to the AI tools customers are already beginning to use. The Claude listing makes that model even easier to access.”

Part of Freight Right’s broader logistics technology platform

The Claude connector is part of Freight Right’s broader investment in logistics technology designed to reduce manual work and make complex freight operations easier to manage.

Freight Right develops technology for shipment management, freight pricing, warehouse operations, application programming interfaces and AI-connected logistics workflows alongside its international and domestic freight forwarding services.
