Tap-to-Pack is a physical hardware controller created by ShipHero that replaces the keyboard and mouse at your packing stations with 8 programmable buttons, LED visual guidance, and audio confirmation.
It connects via USB-C to your existing ShipHero WMS station and reduces on-screen interactions by over 90% while maintaining 99.99% accuracy.
The result: 8 seconds saved on every order, a 19-30% reduction in pack time verified through timed testing in live warehouse conditions.
Your packing station is the heartbeat of your warehouse. But most stations still depend on a keyboard and mouse, the same tools you would find at any office desk.
Packers stop to click. They stop to type. They look away from the product to navigate a screen. Each interruption adds friction, time, and room for error. Multiply that across every order, every shift, every station, and you're losing 8 seconds an order. At 500 orders a day, that's over an hour of wasted packing time, per station, every single day.
Your packing station needs a different kind of tool.

Minimized Screen Interaction: Reduce on-screen and keyboard interactions by over 90%. By moving high-frequency actions to a physical interface, packers keep their eyes on the product and their hands in constant motion rather than navigating digital menus.
High Fulfillment Accuracy: Maintain a 99.9% packing accuracy rate through automated sensory guidance. The system uses two-way communication to trigger LED light prompts and audio confirmations, virtually eliminating decision-making errors during box selection and order completion.
Faster Throughput & Onboarding: Saves an average of 8 seconds per order, every order. At 500 orders a day, that's over an hour of recovered packing capacity per station. No process changes, no retraining. Just plug in and pack faster.
