Computer Vision for Logistics & Supply Chain

Computer Vision for logistics & supply chain, built around the constraint that defines the sector: your data depends on partners whose systems you do not control.

What changes when it is logistics & supply chain

The retraining pipeline is the deliverable people forget. Conditions drift, new defect types appear, and a model nobody can retrain quietly rots over a year.

In logistics & supply chain, your data depends on partners whose systems you do not control. That single fact reshapes how computer vision has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.

The workload we are most often asked to take on first is proof-of-delivery capture, usually integrated against TMS. We start from the constraint, not the capability, what the system must never do, who signs off, and what happens when it is wrong.

Built by engineers who ship production systems, not by a practice that subcontracts the build. We hand over with runbooks, tests and a team that knows how it works, not a dependency.

  • Integration with MES, PLC or alerting systems
  • Retraining pipeline as conditions drift

Questions from this sector

Our partners send data in every format imaginable.

That is the normal starting condition and exactly what document intelligence handles, email, PDF, EDI, scanned paper, all normalised into one structure.

Can it predict delays?

Yes, where there is enough history. The usable output is a reliable exception alert with enough lead time to act, not a precise arrival time.

How much training data do we need?

It depends on defect variability, but a few hundred well-labelled examples per class is a realistic starting point. We design the collection protocol first so the data you gather is actually usable.

Does it run without internet?

Yes. We deploy at the edge with offline tolerance, syncing results when connectivity returns, essential in most plant environments.

What accuracy can we expect?

We report precision and recall per defect class against a held-out set from your line, rather than a single headline number. The honest figure varies by class and we show which ones are hard.
