Smart OCR

AI-powered document scanning that extracts structured data from rate confirmations, bills of lading, PODs, and invoices.

Supported Documents

Smart OCR processes four categories of freight documents. Upload a file and the system identifies the document type automatically, then extracts the relevant fields.

Document TypeExtracted Fields
Rate ConfirmationBroker name, rate, origin, destination, pickup/delivery dates, equipment type, reference numbers
Bill of Lading (BOL)Shipper, consignee, commodity, weight, piece count, BOL number, special instructions
Proof of Delivery (POD)Delivery date/time, receiver name, signature status, exceptions, reference numbers
InvoiceInvoice number, amount, line items, payment terms, remit-to address, due date

How It Works

Upload a PDF, JPEG, or PNG file up to 10 MB. The OCR engine runs text extraction and field detection, then returns each extracted value with a confidence score between 0 and 100. Fields scoring above 90 are auto-accepted. Fields below 90 are flagged for manual review.

Tip

For best results, upload clean scans or digital PDFs. Photos taken at an angle or in low light may produce lower confidence scores.

Applying Data to Loads

After reviewing extracted fields, click Apply to Load to write the data into the corresponding load record. The system matches documents to loads by reference number, BOL number, or broker name. If no match is found, you can manually select the target load.

Batch Upload

Upload multiple documents at once from the Documents tab. Each file is processed independently and queued for review. The review queue shows all pending extractions sorted by upload time.

Info

Batch uploads are processed sequentially. A batch of 10 documents typically completes within 30 seconds.
