AI logistics data entry for delivery companies

The agent reads your delivery tickets, proof-of-delivery slips and invoices, handwritten or printed, along with emails and text messages. It checks each field and enters the data where your team needs it: a spreadsheet, your CRM or your ERP. Pages it cannot read go to a person instead of becoming bad rows. It did this with handwritten delivery slips for a delivery company in Dallas-Fort Worth.

Done for a delivery company

2,000 handwritten slips, due in 72 hours

A delivery company in Dallas-Fort Worth lost access to its dispatch system. Its drivers had written about 2,000 delivery slips by hand, each with about 20 fields, and every slip was a driver’s pay and a vendor’s invoice. They were due in 72 hours, and the plan was to put everyone on data entry for three days.

The company’s own scanner fed a folder the agent watched. It read each page, four slips at a time, and set aside the pages it could not read instead of guessing. About 30 minutes later there were more than 1,900 rows in a spreadsheet, checked against the paper, and payroll went out on time.

The same agent handles data entry for any business. The AI data entry page covers it in general.

How it works

What the agent does with each page

01

Collects the paperwork

Scans, PDFs, emails and text messages land in a folder or inbox the agent watches. Your existing scanner works.

02

Reads each page

It pulls the fields you choose from every ticket, slip and invoice: driver number, vendor, date, weight, amount.

03

Checks every field

Each field is checked against rules you set before anything is entered.

04

Sends problem pages to your team

A page it cannot read, or a record that fails a rule, goes to a person for review.

05

Enters the clean record

The record goes into your spreadsheet, CRM or ERP, with a note of the page it came from.

Data rules

The rules it follows on every page

  • Defined fields, such as vendor, driver number and weight, are written the same way every time.
  • Free-text notes are copied exactly as written.
  • A page it cannot read is never entered as a guess.
  • Every record keeps a note of the page it came from.

Custom software

Custom software for logistics companies

Some work is bigger than data entry: connecting the systems a logistics company already runs, such as dispatch, accounting and a CRM, when no packaged product does. We build that as custom software, on-premise, in the cloud or both.
