BOLSoftware.co Review 2026
★Best for BOL
BOLSoftware.co — Purpose-built for freight and logistics teams drowning in paper BOLs. Extracts shipper, consignee, PO numbers, weight, piece count, and carrier info from any BOL format — handwritten, thermal printed, or carrier PDF. The logistics-specific field extraction is what separates it from general OCR tools that don't understand freight documents.
