Smart Extraction for Shipping & Logistics Documents: Automate Bill of Lading, Manifests & More
🚛 The Challenge with Transport Documentation
Whether it's a paper manifest, a scanned bill of lading, or an emailed delivery note—most logistics paperwork is still unstructured. This means valuable data like shipment numbers, destinations, weights, and contents must be reviewed manually before entering systems like WMS or TMS.
With UpBrains Extractor, that work becomes automatic.
