The tracking work, done and queued for one look
One sentence in, and a companion has been through the AfterShip trackings, put them where you can read them, and marked the ones it was not sure about.
Open the tracking. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the AfterShip afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a tracking until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what AfterShip exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 3 operations, 1 read and 2 writes. In practice that means it can update a tracking and create a tracking.
The AfterShip API stops at AfterShip. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
Can it get tracking on its own?
1 of the 3 operations is a read.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can get a tracking, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from AfterShip's documentation.
The trackings are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the trackings. A companion can hold all 3 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of AfterShip admin becomes a queue you review.

Which trackings wait for your approval?
All 2 write operations wait for you.
A companion can update a tracking and create a tracking, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the tracking, the field and the new value before it lands in AfterShip.
Nothing in AfterShip is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the tracking exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.
- Update Tracking
- Create Tracking
Can it update tracking on a schedule?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the AfterShip trackings pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The operations playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of store admin, the AfterShip trackings sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
