Descriptiontext

Minisoft (legally Simpler Postage, Inc., also d/b/a EasyPost) is a privately-held supply chain execution software company founded in 1983 and headquartered in Snohomish, Washington, with operational offices in Lehi, Utah. The company builds Java-based, modular software that unifies forms and label generation, multi-carrier shipping execution, transactional email, and warehouse document automation for retailers, manufacturers, 3PLs, and brand operators. Its core products are eFORMz (forms, GS1/SSCC barcode labels, packing lists, shipping labels), Ship/FX (rate shopping, label generation, shipment manifest/cancellation across parcel, LTL, and FTL, with Pack Station and Marketplace Central components for warehouse and multi-channel ecommerce workflows), activeFORMz (a low-code platform that converts static documents into web apps, with CloudPrint and eSIGNz extensions for cloud printing and mobile signature capture on bills of lading, customs forms, and POs), eDIRECT+ (transactional email), and DuplexPackSlip (a proprietary duplex thermal label that combines shipping label and packing slip on certified thermal printers with a Ward/Kraft auto-applicator option). The technology layer exposes both eFORMz and Ship/FX APIs and integrates with Manhattan Active WM, Salesforce, UPS, FedEx, and USPS (via Pitney Bowes).
