Despite the critical role of Bills of Lading in global trade, most are still exchanged in physical form, while some organizations use electronic Bills of Lading (eBL) software to facilitate automation. Even so, these conventional approaches cannot fully resolve the complexity involved in processing shipping documentation, often leading to operational challenges that can cause significant delays and add considerable costs to shipments.
Conventional eBL systems fail to interpret fields when document formats change due to their reliance on basic OCR technologies and rigid template-based processing.
Systems process eBLs without contextual understanding and often misread non-standardized fields, descriptions, and carrier-specific formats, resulting in inconsistent data outputs.
Traditional digital B/L workflows lack mechanisms to detect unauthorized edits, duplicate originals, or counterfeit shipping documents.
Collatio Bills of Lading is Scry AI’s trade document intelligence platform built to process, validate, and digitize Bills of Lading across international trade operations. It extracts key shipment details, including shipper and consignee information, cargo descriptions, container numbers, shipment dates, freight terms, ports, and carrier data directly from the document. The platform reconciles this information against related cargo and shipping records and converts it into structured data that can be integrated with logistics systems such as TMS, ERP, and customs applications. Collatio ensures accurate Bill of Lading processing for customs compliance, clearance, and financial settlement.
Collatio’s Bill of Lading software equips logistics and trade teams with AI-powered document intelligence to process bills of lading with greater speed, accuracy, and operational visibility.
Collatio ingests bills of lading from any carrier across a wide range of formats, including PDFs, scanned images, email attachments, and API feeds. Each document is digitized, so paper scans, email files, and carrier-specific layouts become standardized digital records without manual preparation. Logistics teams can onboard new carrier B/L documents instantly and process them as they arrive, regardless of layout or format.
The platform applies advanced OCR and natural language processing to identify and capture key bill of lading fields with high accuracy. It interprets the document’s semantic structure and contextual relationships, enabling accurate field recognition even when layouts vary across carriers. Shipper and consignee details, container numbers, cargo descriptions, seal identifiers, voyage data, and port information are automatically extracted and structured for downstream systems. Collatio processes documents across multiple languages and adapts to regional formats and carrier-specific layouts.
Bill of lading data is automatically cross-checked against related trade and logistics documents such as packing lists, commercial invoices, purchase orders, customs declarations, and carrier confirmations. Our BOL software highlights inconsistencies early in the workflow, allowing teams to resolve issues before shipments move through customs, ports, or distribution networks.
Each document undergoes automated validation through configurable business rules and consistency checks against packing lists, purchase orders, commercial invoices, customs declarations, and related documents. The platform also analyzes document data to detect duplicate references, conflicting shipment details, missing fields, or unusual amendments. These controls help teams identify potential risks early and maintain confidence in trade documentation accuracy.
When the system encounters uncertain fields or complex document variations, Collatio routes them for human-in-the-loop review through its validation framework. Teams receive the complete document context, along with extracted data, so they can validate, correct, or approve fields efficiently. Once validated, the data moves forward to downstream systems, while routine document extraction continues through automated processing.
Validated bill of lading data flows directly into transportation management systems, ERP platforms, customs solutions, and other supply chain applications through secure APIs. Every document action is logged with timestamps, version history, and traceable activity records. Organizations gain a transparent processing trail that supports compliance, operational oversight, and audit readiness.
Collatio delivers measurable gains in document accuracy, processing speed, and operational efficiency for enterprise bill of lading workflows.

faster processing and turnaround times for shipping documentation
drop in compliance errors, with automated validation identifying discrepancies early
The Collatio BOL platform captures bills of lading from multiple channels, such as email attachments, shared folders, scanners, carrier portals, or API feeds. The platform supports formats including PDF, JPEG, TIFF, PNG, Word, and Excel files. Images undergo automated preprocessing that corrects skew, reduces noise, and improves clarity, so even low-quality port scans remain suitable for accurate document interpretation.
The platform identifies the document type and interprets its structure through OCR, natural language processing, and layout analysis. Collatio extracts critical shipment data, including shipper and consignee details, container numbers, cargo descriptions, seal identifiers, voyage information, freight terms, and port details. The system recognizes carrier-specific layouts and regional document formats without the need for template configuration.
Extracted data is automatically cross-referenced against configured business rules and linked documents, including packing lists, purchase orders, commercial invoices, and customs declarations. The platform also evaluates the data for anomalies such as duplicate references, inconsistent shipment details, or unusual amendments. Discrepancies are flagged in real time, which gives teams clear visibility to resolve issues before shipment release.
Documents that pass all validation checks flow straight through to your systems automatically. Those with low-confidence fields, anomalies, or flagged discrepancies are routed to the appropriate team member for human-in-the-loop review with full document context. Teams can review discrepancies and extracted data to confirm, correct, or approve fields for faster resolution with confidence.
Validated BOL data is delivered to your TMS, ERP, customs platform, or data warehouse through secure API connections in your required format. Every processed document is simultaneously archived with version history and a timestamped audit trail, which supports compliance and reliable document retrieval.
Collatio processes a wide range of trade and freight documentation alongside bills of lading. This ensures shipment workflows remain connected across related document types.
Collatio embeds enterprise compliance, data protection, and governance controls directly into every Bill of Lading workflow so teams remain audit-ready at all times.
SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified security with encryption, role-based access, MFA, and configurable data residency options.
Time-stamped processing logs track document ingestion, extraction, validation, and review across every BOL workflow.
Configurable validation rules detect incomplete HS codes, incorrect freight terms, and missing details before submission to customs authorities.
We are trusted by enterprises globally.
Connect with your existing enterprise platforms through APIs and direct data exchange, keeping your workflows intact and your teams in sync.
Don’t let a misread BOL delay another shipment.
