Freight Forwarders

Turn documents into structured data instantly

Document-heavy receiving workflows automated with AI-powered OCR. Extract data from BOLs, packing lists, customs documents, and HBLs without manual entry.

The Challenges

Freight forwarding documentation is overwhelming

πŸ“„

Mountains of documents

Every shipment comes with BOLs, packing lists, commercial invoices, customs documents. Typing everything manually takes hours per day.

πŸ”

Inconsistent document interpretation

Different staff read documents differently. Fields get missed, numbers get transposed. Same document yields different results.

βš–οΈ

Weight discrepancies create disputes

Shipper dimensions don't match reality. Without independent measurement, billing disputes become painful.

🌐

Multilingual data creates confusion

Documents from China, Europe, Latin America β€” different languages, formats, and conventions. Staff need to interpret everything.

⏰

Customs clearance waits for data

Missing or incorrect data delays clearance. Every hour of delay costs money and damages customer relationships.

πŸ”—

Systems don't talk to each other

Data lives in silos β€” forwarding system, dimensioning app, customs software. Manual reconciliation is a full-time job.
