# Shippo: API for Shipping **Published by:** [Continuations](https://continuations.com/) **Published on:** 2016-09-09 **Categories:** usv, shippo, apis, shipping, programming **URL:** https://continuations.com/shippo-api-for-shipping ## Content Today’s blog post is over at USV announcing our investment in Shippo. I have written previously about how the future of programming will consist of composing applications from different APIs. We already have quite a few building blocks in our portfolio with Twilio (communications), Dwolla (payments) and Clarifai (intelligence). Shippo adds shipping which is critical for any application that touches the movement of goods. You can also read more about the financing and the company’s plans on Shippo’s blog. ## Publication Information - [Continuations](https://continuations.com/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://continuations.com/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@continuations): Subscribe to updates - [Twitter](https://twitter.com/albertwenger): Follow on Twitter ## Optional - [Collect as NFT](https://continuations.com/shippo-api-for-shipping): Support the author by collecting this post - [View Collectors](https://continuations.com/shippo-api-for-shipping/collectors): See who has collected this post
