Plain Freight

Poll a generated offer until the async agent check settles. Returns settled (true once the check finished), possibly updated options and summary text, follow-up questions whose answers change the price or customs channel, and needs_review. If needs_review is true the prices are withheld on purpose: the goods look restricted (batteries, food, chemicals) and a human must clear them first. Tell the user Plain Freight will follow up by email; do not present a number. Branded goods are never held; they are priced on the branded channel.

Get an all-in DDP offer (freight, US customs clearance, duties, and US door delivery in one USD number) for a shipment from China to the USA, 100 g to 2,000 kg. Prices come from Plain Freight's live pricing engine. Provide dimensions when known: for light bulky cargo volumetric weight governs the price. After this returns, an async agent double-checks the shipment; call check_offer_status with the quote_id to pick up its verdict, extra questions, or a needs_review flag.

Read the live tracking record for a booked shipment. Requires the tracking link from the booking email (https://plainfreight.com/track/<token>) or the bare token; the token is the credential, so only someone the customer shared the link with can read the record. Returns the shipment reference, the current stage on the 10-stage lifecycle (Booking through Delivered), shipment details, and the dated event log. Read-only: to change a booking or ask a question, email hello@plainfreight.com and include the shipment reference.
