Triplicate for AI agents and developers

MCP server

Remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP, no sign-in):

https://api.triplicatedocs.com/mcp

Add it as a custom connector in an AI assistant that supports remote MCP servers, or in your own agent. For clients that only run local servers, use a bridge such as mcp-remote:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "triplicate": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://api.triplicatedocs.com/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Tools

• create_trade_documents – order data in; a link to the filled-in proforma invoice, commercial invoice, packing list and shipping instruction out, with totals (amount, cartons, net and gross weight, CBM) and checks (missing fields, HS code format, Incoterms freight and insurance).
• lookup_hs_code – search the HS 2022 nomenclature (6 digits) by English description or code prefix.
• calculate_shipment – CBM, gross weight, air and express chargeable weight, LCL revenue tons and container fit from carton sizes.

Example prompt: “Make the commercial invoice and packing list for this order with Triplicate: …” The assistant returns a link; you check the documents there and save the PDF.

How the link works and what is stored

The documents are not stored anywhere. The API turns the order data into a link to the generator with the data packed into the part after #, which browsers never send to a server; the page reads it in the browser, fills in the form and removes it from the address bar. If the form already holds the user's own data, the page asks before replacing it.

The API processes each request in memory and keeps nothing; we count only how many calls each tool gets per day. Your IP address is used briefly in memory to limit requests (30 per minute) and is not saved. See the privacy policy.
