What the company did

Levity reports Sealink using AI to extract shipping-document data and transfer it into its GAMA TMS through an API. The key preparation step was converting incoming instructions and bills of lading from varied formats into a consistent internal format before extraction.

How it went

The provider says processing fell from 5–10 minutes per document to seconds, supporting higher volumes without a corresponding rise in back-office staffing. Accuracy claims vary within the page and lack a reproducible method, so those figures are omitted.

Worth knowing

  • The normalization format, model and complete field mapping are not public. TMS entry does not establish that later export filings or carrier documents are correct.
  • Practical takeaway: Compare shipper, consignee, goods, weight and references with the originals; resolve conflicting instructions before transmitting final documents.
