A voyage produces a stack of documents from shippers, agents, terminals and the ship. Most claims start where two of them disagree. We build ship documentation software that finds the disagreement before the vessel sails.
All Maritime & Ports →
Maritime document processing is not one task. The bill of lading has to agree with the cargo manifest and the mate’s receipt. The dangerous goods declaration has to agree with the IMDG Code entry and the stowage plan. The statement of facts has to agree with the notice of readiness and the port log, because laytime and demurrage are calculated from it under the charter party. Each is produced by a different party, in a different format, often as a scan.
The value is in the cross-check. A clean bill of lading issued against a mate’s receipt with remarks, a container count that differs between manifest and bill, a time in the statement of facts that is not in the log: each is a future dispute. Finding them while they can still be corrected is cheaper than arguing them later.

mismatches and missing documents
Yes. Vision and language models read bills of lading from PDFs and scans, including different carrier layouts, and extract parties, ports, cargo description, quantities, container and seal numbers and remarks. The useful step is comparing those values with the manifest and the mate's receipt, because discrepancies between them are where cargo claims usually begin.
It drafts the calculation. Events are extracted from the statement of facts and applied to the laytime clauses of the charter party, with each exception and deduction linked to its clause. The operator or claims handler checks and finalises it, because laytime turns on interpretation of the charter party and on facts that are sometimes disputed.
Yes. Electronic bills of lading are issued on recognised platforms, and in England and Wales the Electronic Trade Documents Act 2023 gives qualifying electronic documents the same standing as paper. We read from those platforms through their interfaces and check the data in the same way; issuing remains the carrier's act on the platform.
