delivery-tracker vs fleetbase

Delivery Tracker is an open-source delivery and shipment tracking service that developers integrate into their own applications. It exposes a GraphQL Tracking API, a Carrier List API and a webhook API that posts status changes to a callback URL, alongside client SDKs. It covers carriers in South Korea, Japan, China and Germany, including CJ Logistics, Korea Post, Coupang Logistics, Yamato, Sagawa, Japan Post, Cainiao Global and DHL. The Core can be self-hosted with Docker, and a managed cloud service offers a free plan plus paid Pro, Business and Enterprise tiers.

Fleetbase is a flexible, open-source logistics operating system designed to build and scale delivery, fulfillment, and transportation operations. It provides developers and enterprises with the core infrastructure needed to manage fleets, track shipments, and coordinate last-mile delivery workflows. Built with a modular architecture, the platform allows organizations to self-host their logistics infrastructure or use cloud services, avoiding per-driver fees and maintaining full data ownership. It integrates seamlessly with custom applications through robust APIs and extensible plugins.
