Automating Bill of Lading & Freight Invoices with AI
Stop manually re-typing delivery notes and freight bills. Instantly extract shipment details and route them to your TMS.
In logistics and supply chain operations, speed is everything. A shipment moving from point A to point B generates a massive paper trail — Bills of Lading (BoL), commercial invoices, packing lists, and delivery notes. Traditionally, human operators had to manually review each document, extract the tracking numbers, shipment weights, and recipient details, and re-key them into a Transport Management System (TMS).
The Automation Paradigm
With an Intelligent Business Operations Platform like AerisL, this process is completely automated. When a freight forwarder emails a PDF of a Bill of Lading, AerisL instantly ingests the document, uses AI to extract structured data (such as the BoL number, weight, dimensions, and consignee), and maps it into a relational dataset.
From there, a visual workflow routes the extracted data. If the weight matches the purchase order, it's automatically pushed to your TMS via API. If there's a discrepancy, it's routed to a human operator for a one-click review.
Why It Matters
By automating freight invoice and BoL extraction, logistics companies are reducing data entry times by 90% and virtually eliminating transcription errors that lead to lost shipments or delayed customs clearance.
