Case 12/OCR / Extraction Automation/Logistics / Supply Chain

Intelligent Document Processing for Logistics

Processes 15K+ shipping documents a day with confidence-scored extraction and real-time ERP sync.

The challenge

What was breaking

50K+ shipping documents a month — BoLs, Invoices, PODs and Customs forms — were processed manually. 60% of ops labour went to data entry, with 5–8% error rates causing customs delays and billing mismatches.

The solution

Logistics IDP

A hybrid OCR and intelligent extraction pipeline with field-level confidence scoring and real-time API integration into ERPs.

  • OCR + post-processing for high accuracy
  • Named entity extraction for logistics documents
  • Field-level confidence scoring
  • Real-time API integration with ERPs
  • Support for BoL, Invoice, POD and Customs
Solution design

How it works

5 stages
  1. 01

    Capture

    Documents ingested via API in real time.

  2. 02

    OCR

    Hybrid vision plus heuristic post-processing for high accuracy.

  3. 03

    Extract

    Named entities — shipper, consignee, HS codes, weights, hazmat — pulled out.

  4. 04

    Score

    Low-confidence fields (<85%) flagged for QA review.

  5. 05

    Sync

    Structured output pushed to ERP in 5–10 seconds.
