  • Patent number: 12141742
    Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying options for order fulfillment using an API are provided. The system receives, via the API, an order inquiry comprising customer information and item information about an item sold via a merchant website. The order inquiry can be received in response to a customer placing the item in an electronic shopping cart. The item information includes an item identifier and a quantity. The customer information includes a customer address. Using the item information and the customer information, the system identifies warehouse nodes and carriers via which the item can be delivered to the customer. The system confirms inventory of the item in the warehouse nodes. For each warehouse node with sufficient inventory, the system identifies shipping options for the item, including levels of service, cutoff order times, and prices. The system then generates fulfillment options for the item and provides the options to the merchant website.
