Representative of the systems we build.

The problem

A logistics firm had staff retyping data from thousands of invoices and delivery documents into their system — slow, dull, and full of transcription errors.

What we built

An extraction pipeline: a document comes in, the system reads it, and the fields — supplier, amounts, dates, line items — come out as structured data. A review screen shows the original beside the extracted values with a confidence flag, so a person confirms rather than retypes. Only what’s uncertain needs a human eye.

The outcome

Manual entry dropped by around 80%, errors fell with it, and documents that used to sit in a queue got processed the same day. The human stays in the loop exactly where it’s cheap to be wrong to catch — and nowhere it isn’t.
