Instrumented flows out of paper-bound operations.
Logistics still runs on paper and phone calls. We turn it into measurable flow — extracting documents, tracking assets, and automating the steps that don't need a human, with review where it counts.
The data is trapped in the documents.
Freight still moves on PDFs, scans, and email threads. Every bill of lading re-keyed by hand is a delay, an error, and a number nobody can trust — and the more the operation scales, the more people it takes just to move paper.
We build extraction pipelines that read the documents the way your best clerk would, route the genuine exceptions to a human, and push clean, structured data straight into the systems that already run the operation.
What was a stack of paper becomes a measurable flow: you can see where every shipment is, where the friction is, and where the next hour of automation should go.
Paper-bound vs instrumented.
| Paper-bound | Instrumented with Protocore | |
|---|---|---|
| Data entry | Manual re-keying, per document | Extracted automatically, validated |
| Errors | Found downstream, if at all | Caught at capture, routed to review |
| Visibility | Phone calls and spreadsheets | Live status on every shipment |
| Scaling | More clerks per volume | Volume without headcount |
| Exceptions | Buried in the pile | Surfaced to a human, with context |
From paper to measurable flow.
- [ 01 ]
Frame
We pick the highest-friction flow, define the accuracy bar, and the eval that measures it.
- [ 02 ]
Ground
Extraction, validation, and routing — the model answers from the document, not its imagination.
- [ 03 ]
Ship
A production pipeline with human review on the exceptions and instrumentation on everything.
- [ 04 ]
Operate
We watch accuracy in production, harden against drift, and widen automation over time.
What the work returns.
From an AI document pipeline we run in production today.
What we build.
- Document intelligence & extraction
- OCR & data capture
- Asset & shipment tracking
- Workflow automation
- Human-in-the-loop review
- System & EDI integration
- Exception handling & alerting
- Track-and-trace dashboards
- Operations analytics
- Data validation & enrichment
We don't automate the whole job and hope. We automate the 92% that's routine, and put a human exactly where the other 8% needs one.
Logistics, instrumented.
