Bol.ai vs Brontosaurus, a voice

Stop retyping Bills of Lading. Upload a BOL as PDF, scan or photo and get structured data in seconds, parties, ports, containers, weights. JSON, CSV & API.

Brontosaurus is a web-based generative canvas, where you speak aloud what you want to see, and Bronto builds a widget of it in under a second.

About Bol.ai

Stop retyping Bills of Lading. Upload a BOL as PDF, scan or photo and get structured data in seconds, parties, ports, containers, weights. JSON, CSV & API. The Bill of Lading is our specialty, and we read the documents that travel with it. Built for the daily reality of freight forwarders and customs brokers: stacks of carrier BOLs that someone has to key into the system. Every container number is checked against its ISO 6346 check digit, dates and weights against plausibility rules, suspect fields are flagged, never silently wrong.

About Brontosaurus, a voice

Brontosaurus is a web-based generative canvas, where you speak aloud what you want to see, and Bronto builds a widget of it in under a second. There are certainly other labs doing this today, but Thinking Machines takes a unique approach - Sean Goedecke does a great job of breaking down that novelty in his own blog post. Both the technical and philosophical pieces of this approach spoke to me, and they together made me want to build something of the same ethos.
