iContainers

iContainers is a digital freight forwarder founded in 2007 in Barcelona and now part of Agility Logistics, following its 2019/2022 merger with Shipa Freight. The platform lets SMEs, importers/exporters, moving companies, freight agents and individuals search, compare, book, insure, document and track international ocean freight (FCL and LCL), air freight, air express and customs clearance across 250,000+ trade routes to 300+ destinations. Developer access is published as the "Brutus API" — an OpenAPI 3.0.0 contract rendered on developer.icontainers.com covering FCL/LCL/air/LTL quoting, rate price calculation, place/port search, booking a rate, booking track-and-trace, and booking document upload/download — secured with JWT bearer tokens. iContainers also sells a white-label freight forwarding portal, and its operational layer is supplied by the third-party platform VelocityOS.ai.

iContainers publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Bookings API, Documents API, Places API, and 2 more. Tagged areas include Company, Marketplace, Logistics, Freight, and Shipping.

iContainers’ developer surface includes authentication, documentation, API reference, support, engineering blog, signup flow, sandbox, and 20 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/icontainers: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
