LoadingMCP

Container load planning to the standard, not by eye.

Container load planning software for 3D plans that respect the rules cargo actually ships under: the CTU Code, IMDG segregation, lashing to EN 12195, axle and floor limits, and centre of gravity. The load calculator a planner trusts, callable as a tool.

What it does

Load planning built for the decisions you make at the desk.

3D packing that explains itself

Fills the container or trailer and tells you why each piece went where it did. You get a wall-by-wall plan your loaders can follow on the dock, not a black box.

Compliance checked while you plan

CTU Code practice, IMDG dangerous-goods segregation, EN 12195 lashing, axle and floor-strength limits. Each rule is checked as the plan is built and flagged before the doors close.

Centre of gravity & weight distribution

Where the weight sits, what each axle carries and whether the load is legal on the road at the other end. You see the answer before you commit the load.

Plans both sides can read

Exports that your warehouse and your carrier both understand, so the plan on your screen is the plan that gets loaded.

A visual planner or a tool call

Plan in the visual cockpit, or call the engine from your own system. Both give the same answer.

Call it as tools

Container load planning as MCP tools or REST endpoints.

The same functions an assistant can call in plain language, your stack can hit over REST, behind one key, with webhooks to push the changes.

Questions

The things people ask first.

CTU Code practice, IMDG dangerous-goods segregation, EN 12195 lashing, and axle and floor-strength limits: all checked as the plan is built, not after.

Yes. It reports where the weight sits, what the axles carry and whether the load is legal to move by road at the destination, before the doors close.

Yes. Plan in the visual cockpit, or call plan_load as a tool: same engine, same answer.

Step-by-step load plans and data exports that your warehouse and your carrier both read.

Both. Planners work in the visual cockpit in the browser, and your own systems call the same 3D engine through MCP tools or the REST API. It packs containers and trailers and checks each plan against the CTU Code, IMDG, EN 12195 lashing and axle limits.
