Opendock MCP
The Opendock MCP is currently in closed beta. Contact your account manager to request access.
Booking a dock appointment usually means a portal, a login, and a form that looks different at every facility. The Opendock MCP lets you skip all of that: connect Opendock to any MCP-capable client and schedule, check, and manage appointments in plain language.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard that lets AI applications use external systems through well-defined "tools". The Opendock MCP exposes Opendock scheduling as those tools, so anything that speaks MCP can book against it — whether that's a commercial general-purpose MCP client, your TMS or WMS, or a custom in-house solution.
You connect by signing in with your existing Opendock credentials. The assistant only gets the tools your account type allows, and every action runs through the same Opendock API and permission checks as the web app.
For carriers
A booking becomes a sentence: "Book a reefer delivery at Acme Cold Storage this Thursday morning — PO 8842, 22 pallets." The assistant finds the warehouse, checks what that facility requires, confirms the details with you, and books it. Checking up works the same way: "What's the status of PO 8842?"
One connection, every warehouse
Every warehouse on Opendock is configured differently — hours of operation, lead times, pallet limits, reference number rules, required custom fields. Integrating directly means mapping each facility one by one, then updating that mapping every time a facility changes something.
With the MCP, none of that lives in your stack. Right before booking, the assistant pulls the warehouse's live requirements and adapts on the spot. If a facility adds a required "Seal Number" field next month, the next booking simply includes it — there's nothing on your side to update.
For warehouses
Warehouse accounts get the management side. From a chat, you can look up and update your docks, load types, and hours of operation, set booking rules ("make the PO number required and unique at Bristol"), and create or fix appointments on behalf of carriers — book for them, reschedule, change docks.

Bulk-book from what you already have
Forward an email thread full of delivery requests, or drop in a spreadsheet with next week's loads. The assistant extracts the details, books each appointment, and flags anything that's missing or doesn't fit a warehouse's rules.
