Jorora · POD & BOL Validation
No evidence, no easy approval.
When the charge needs proof, Jorora checks that POD/BOL (and lumper) are present and usable — then decides Approve, Review, or Reject.
How it works
One problem. One decision path.
AI extracts. Rules decide. Your desk stays in control of payment.
- 01
Attach evidence with the invoice
Forward or upload POD/BOL alongside invoice + rate confirmation when exception charges appear.
- 02
Check presence and usability
Rules hold detention and similar fees when timestamps or receipts are missing.
- 03
Park incomplete packets
Awaiting documents keeps work out of junk — complete the packet, then decide.
Documents compared
What goes into the packet
Bring the documents the pay decision actually needs — nothing more.
- Proof of Delivery
- Bill of Lading
- Carrier Invoice
- Rate Confirmation
- Lumper receipt (when applicable)
Why trust the decision
Explainable before cash moves
Trust comes from a trail — not from promising magic savings.
- Designed for how FTL really works: evidence arrives late and incomplete.
- Incomplete packets are explicit states — not silent Approves.
- Pairs with dispute workflows once evidence exists.
Why AI is more reliable here
Read with AI. Decide with rules.
Carrier PDFs are messy. Pay authorization should not be.
- AI classifies and extracts shipment documents in the packet.
- Evidence requirements are rules your desk can explain.
- You never outsource payment authority to a model.
