Trade document automation

Turn shipment documents into structured data before operations lose time

PortSwift reads Bills of Lading, invoices, packing lists, and supporting documents, then returns validated data your TMS, ERP, and customs workflows can trust.

  • Demo-first evaluation with a browser-only mock upload and structured preview.
  • Clear monthly packages from €2,500 / month through enterprise rollouts.
  • Built for freight forwarders, carriers, and customs brokers handling format drift at scale.

Built around operators

Specific workflows for the teams moving the shipment

Each vertical gets the same extraction core with workflows, exception rules, and integrations tuned to the job that team owns.

Freight forwarders

Convert shipper packets into clean job files, spot missing commercial fields, and push verified data into forwarding systems before handoff.

Carriers

Normalize carrier-specific B/L layouts, reduce amendment loops, and expose status-ready document data for customer service teams.

Customs brokers

Reconcile invoices, packing lists, HS codes, weights, and origin data so declarations start from validated evidence instead of rekeyed text.

Platform capabilities

Comprehensive automation built for modern trade operations

From data extraction to system integration, PortSwift provides end-to-end automation for maritime documentation workflows.

Multi-platform dashboard interface

Unified dashboard

Manage every document across multiple screens and workflows from a single interface built for operations teams and exception handling.

Project timeline and workflow automation

Timeline tracking

Track document processing stages with visual timelines, ensuring every shipment moves through validation and delivery on schedule.

Data integration architecture

Seamless integration

Connect with ERP, TMS, finance, and customs systems through APIs and webhooks for real-time data synchronization.

Developer-friendly API

Developer tools

Sandbox environments, API documentation, exports, and implementation support help teams move from pilot to production without rebuilding their stack.

Monthly pricing

Start with one workflow, then scale across the document operation

Public packages are monthly and implementation-friendly. Enterprise covers custom security, data residency, procurement, and multi-team rollout requirements.

Starter

One document workflow

€2,500 / month

  • Best for a focused B/L, invoice, or packing-list pilot.
  • Structured exports and confidence scoring.
  • Shared implementation workspace and launch support.

Scale

High-volume rollout

€10,000 / month

  • Best for multiple document types, branches, or customer teams.
  • Advanced rules, SLA views, and webhook/API delivery.
  • Priority model tuning and workflow configuration.

Proof patterns

Designed for measurable operations outcomes

Forwarder intake

From inbox packets to job-ready data

Teams use PortSwift to extract shipper, consignee, container, route, and cargo fields before coordinators start downstream booking and finance checks.

Target outcome: fewer rekeying passes and faster file opening.
Carrier service

Cleaner amendment conversations

Carrier teams can surface field-level confidence and missing evidence so customer service teams know what needs confirmation instead of reopening the whole packet.

Target outcome: shorter exception loops and better audit history.
Broker compliance

Declaration prep with visible evidence

Brokers can compare invoice, packing list, and B/L values in one review queue before pushing validated data into customs workflows.

Target outcome: fewer preventable mismatches before filing.
Competitive moat

The advantage is not just OCR. It is the operating memory around trade documents.

PortSwift compounds document intelligence across formats, exceptions, and integrations so each rollout becomes easier to operate and harder to replace.

Carrier format memory

Layouts, aliases, amendments, and edge cases improve reusable extraction rules over time.

Document graph reconciliation

B/L, invoice, packing list, and customs fields are checked as one shipment story.

Human feedback loops

Operator corrections become governed training signals instead of one-off fixes.

Integration gravity

Validated data flows into the systems teams already use, creating workflow stickiness.

Why PortSwift

Reduce document friction across every shipment

The workflow pairs purpose-built AI models with intuitive operator tooling. The result is a single source of truth for documents, status visibility, and audit-ready compliance.

Unified services

Manage Bills of Lading, invoices, and packing lists in one workspace with shared metadata and search.

Intelligent processing

Adaptive AI recognizes carrier-specific layouts, normalizes language, and flags anomalies for review.

Simplicity for operators

Clean, guided interfaces reduce training time and keep teams focused on exceptions, not data entry.

Time-saving automation

Automated routing and integrations push validated data into ERP, TMS, or customs systems in minutes.

Automated in three moves

01

Upload

Drag-and-drop scanned PDFs, image bundles, or EDI feeds to trigger parsing.

02

Review

PortSwift scores confidence, highlights exceptions, and requests approval only when needed.

03

Deliver

Export to downstream systems with full audit trails and version history.
