Shadowfax Tracking. Free & Online.

Shadowfax was founded in 2015 with a simple but ambitious vision: build a logistics network that is as flexible and fast as the gig economy itself. Rather than owning a fleet, Shadowfax operates on a marketplace model - connecting a large network of delivery partners (Shadowfax calls them 'Delivery Partners') to businesses that need last-mile delivery.

This model has proven particularly powerful for quick commerce and same-day delivery. While traditional couriers batch shipments through sorting hubs, Shadowfax's hyperlocal routing enables direct point-to-point delivery in hours - ideal for grocery platforms, food delivery adjacents, and time-sensitive e-commerce.

Shadowfax counts among its clients some of India's largest platforms: Flipkart, Meesho, Myntra, Nykaa, Snapdeal, and several major D2C brands. It also handles the last-mile delivery for many quick commerce dark stores.

The company's tech stack is built for real-time: order assignment happens in seconds, delivery partner location is tracked live, and proof of delivery (photo + OTP) is captured at the doorstep. Shadowfax tracking numbers typically start with the prefix 'SF' followed by alphanumeric characters.

Shadowfax has built a strong reverse logistics capability as well - with a return pickup SLA that typically outperforms traditional carriers by 24–48 hours. For D2C sellers with high return volumes, this is a meaningful advantage.
