The local delivery case is really where UberRUSH provides the most value. We also take pride in our developer tools and experience and invite you to check out our docs:

I'm curious how you might compare them to FedEx's docs?

Oh man, oh man. Don't get me started on the utter mess that the UPS and FedEx APIs are. I've gone through the app certification process for both, as well as Stamps.com (USPS), and I think the only other project that rivals that mess is ADP (development took over a year, certification took another 6 months and 10s of thousands in fees.)

As an example, the developer document solely for obtaining shipment rates is 98 pages long.
