The manual document work, gone.
Your team shouldn’t spend hours typing data off PDFs. FlowDocs does it in seconds — accurately, in whatever format your carriers send.
Bills of Lading
Pulls carrier details, ports, container and cargo data off any BoL format and maps it straight to your system.
Commercial Invoices
Extracts line items, values and totals, and flags mismatches before they turn into billing disputes.
AWB & Shipping Docs
Reads air waybills and customs paperwork from every carrier, no matter how inconsistent the layout.
How it works
Three steps. No setup.
Send us your document
Upload a bill of lading, invoice or AWB. Any format, any carrier.
We extract and validate
FlowDocs reads every field and checks each one, with a confidence score tied back to where it appears in the original document.
Get clean data back
Export structured, verified data straight to your ERP, TMS or Excel. No manual typing.
See it on your own paperwork.
The best way to judge FlowDocs is on a real document. Send us one of yours and we’ll send back clean, structured data — free, no commitment.
Every field is validated
FlowDocs doesn’t just read your documents, it checks each field and ties it back to the source, with a confidence score. You see exactly what was extracted and how sure the system is.
Built for freight
Made for the documents freight forwarders actually handle — bills of lading, AWBs, commercial invoices — not a generic, one-size-fits-all extractor.
Any carrier format
Carriers and agents send paperwork every which way. FlowDocs handles the inconsistency so your team doesn’t have to.
Pricing
Managed plans based on your document volume. Tell us roughly how many documents you process a week and we’ll quote you. Most teams start with a free run on their own documents first.
Send us a document.
See what comes back.
No signup, no call. Send one bill of lading or invoice and we’ll return clean, structured data within a day.
