Meet Jetpack first.

I would tell anyone to switch in a heartbeat! Hands down, I honestly don't think that there's another company out there who could or is doing more than what you guys are doing in terms of support.

ShipHero (LVK) vs Jetpack

Where the resemblance ends.

ShipHero’s fulfillment arm now operates as LVK, and its warehouse technology is excellent. On paper, the two offers look close. The difference shows up in the moments you live with every week.

When you need help
LVK
A ticket in the LVK app
  • You submit a ticket through the app’s support system.
  • An account lead on your business, backed by support and ops teams.
Jetpack
Your team, in your Slack
  • The same named people in your channel, most replies in under a minute.
  • Problems often flagged to you before you notice them.
When a package goes quiet
LVK
PostHero: rules on a dashboard
  • Tracks orders through final delivery.
  • Surfaces stuck, lost, or delayed packages after set days without movement.
Jetpack
Delivery IQ: prediction per package
  • An AI engine trained on your own delivered and lost orders.
  • Scores every shipment in transit, so intervention starts before the complaint.

LVK is a solid 3PL with a smaller network and a similar feature list. What a spec sheet can’t measure is how it feels to be a client, and that’s Jetpack’s ace in the hole: real-time support in your Slack, from a team that acts as an extension of yours, when the tough challenges arise.

Working with Jetpack doesn’t feel like working with a vendor. They genuinely care about our business, proactively solve problems, and provide lightning-fast response times.

Questions

Frequently asked.

Three things set Jetpack apart: Jetpack Care, our IQ engine suite, and radical transparency. Jetpack Care: every brand gets a dedicated team on Slack that knows your products, workflows, and priorities, not a ticket queue, not a chatbot. Three proprietary IQ engines handle the rest: MultiHub IQ uses ML to position US inventory across 45+ domestic warehouses by customer geography; Carrier IQ optimizes carrier selection per package in real time; Delivery IQ monitors shipments in transit, flagging delays before your customer notices and auto-filing claims when eligible. All-in rate cards: no monthly, emergency, or processing fees. No long-term contracts.

3PL pricing usually has four parts: storage, billed by the space you use; receiving, billed for the time it takes to check your inventory in; pick-and-pack, billed per order and per item; and shipping, billed by weight, size, and zone. What you pay depends on the provider and your volume. Jetpack's pricing strips out the fees most 3PLs pile on: no per-order processing fee, no charge for standard packaging like boxes and poly mailers, and no charge for your first pick. Then three levers pull the rate down: the combined volume of 5,000+ brands on our network, Carrier IQ routing every order to the lowest-cost carrier, and MultiHub IQ placing inventory closer to your buyers, which cuts zone-4+ shipments by up to 85% and overall costs by up to 30%.

Jetpack is generally built for brands shipping 1,000+ orders per month across all channels combined. That said, we love hearing from newer brands building something exciting. If you're early-stage and we believe in what you're building, we'll talk through what it would take to invest and grow together. Reach out for a conversation. Otherwise, crowdfunding fulfillment and startup fulfillment are good stepping stones until the volume catches up.

If you're comparing fulfillment services, yes, and the first thing to know is that ShipHero's fulfillment network now operates as LVK, a separate company with 7 centers across the US and Canada. Jetpack fulfills from 60+ warehouses across the US, Canada, UK, EU, and Australia, with MultiHub IQ placing your US stock near your buyers, with close-zone deliveries in as little as 1-2 days at standard rates. Jetpack quotes one all-in rate per order, one transparent number you can build your business around, where LVK's single rate on shipped orders is quoted per client. And instead of a ticket system, every Jetpack brand gets a dedicated Jetpack Care team in Slack.

Not under that name. ShipHero's outsourced fulfillment business became LVK Logistics, and shiphero.com's fulfillment pages now redirect to lvk.com. ShipHero itself sells warehouse management software to brands and 3PLs, and LVK runs its 7 North American fulfillment centers on that software. If you were looking for ShipHero fulfillment, you're really evaluating LVK, which is exactly what this page compares Jetpack against.

ShipHero is warehouse management software: brands running their own warehouses and 3PLs use it for inventory, picking, packing, and shipping, with live carrier rate shopping. It doesn't fulfill orders itself; that business became LVK Logistics. Jetpack covers both sides of that split: full-service fulfillment from 60+ warehouses with the software included, and the Jetpack platform can also be licensed to run your own warehouse.

ShipHero prices its warehouse software by plan through its sales team, and LVK, its former fulfillment arm, quotes flat-rate fulfillment pricing per client; neither publishes rates. Jetpack quotes to your volume too, but the shape is simple: one all-in rate per order covering pick, pack, shipping, and standard packaging, priced on the order's total weight with a flat 30 cents per additional pick, and no setup or processing fees. Request a quote to see your number.

Start with a call, and we'll come back with an all-in rate card and a full transition plan. From there it's a guided transfer: our team builds the inventory math and the logistics requirements, then connects your sales channels and coordinates the inventory move while your current operation keeps shipping. Most brands are fully live in 2-3 weeks, and it takes far less of your own time than you'd expect. Jetpack has no lock-in contracts on our side; check your current agreement for notice terms, and we'll time the cutover around them. Book the call whenever you're ready.
