# Logistics and supply chain

> Document Processing reads bills of lading, customs forms and carrier invoices in any format, and points every value back to its page.

## Every shipping document, read and cited.

Document Processing reads bills of lading, customs forms and carrier invoices in any format, and points every value back to its page.

Runs on: Document Processing (reads).

| Value | Result | Source |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 36 | file types, scanned or digital | [Perception evaluation](https://nace.ai/perception) |
| #1 | on grounding in Nace's Perception evaluation | [Perception evaluation](https://nace.ai/perception) |
| <½ | the price of the best tool we tested, at the same accuracy | [Perception evaluation](https://nace.ai/perception) |

## Freight moves faster than the paperwork behind it.

Bills of lading, proofs of delivery and carrier invoices arrive as scans, photos and email attachments. Document Processing turns them into clean data your TMS and finance team can trust, with the source page one click away.

## Where Nace fits

Document Processing does the reading. Your team and systems take it from there.
