LOGSOL Optimizes Distribution Logistics at Volkswagen Group OTLG
10. October 2025No more manual typing – one click is enough: Logistikbude GmbH introduces a new feature of its software solution with the AI agent that significantly reduces the manual effort in managing load carriers, such as pallets and containers. With the help of artificial intelligence, the AI agent automatically processes handwritten and printed information on scanned pallet slips and transfers it structured into the digital booking mask.
“Logistics managers will know this: At the beginning of each shift, dozens of pallet slips land on the table that all need to be booked. Time-consuming – and above all avoidable – tedious work that is now almost completely eliminated thanks to the AI agent,” says Dr. Philipp Hüning, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Logistikbude. After an intensive testing phase in live operation, the feature has already been implemented with the first partner companies and shows immediate positive effects: “The central advantage of the AI agent has already been demonstrated with the first customers: It is self-explanatory and therefore ready for use immediately,” says Hüning.
From manual input to automated booking
The new feature automatically processes the information on scanned documents using artificial intelligence – including exchange partners, document date and number, loading equipment and quantities, optionally also truck license plates and other references – and generates a booking that only needs to be briefly approved by an employee. The special feature: The slips are read without training – even those that the system has never seen before. “This reduces the effort per pallet slip from 30–60 seconds to just a few seconds and simultaneously lowers the error rate due to transmission errors. With dozens of slips per day, several hours of avoidable tedious work can be saved weekly,” says Hüning.
The solution is fully scalable and can reliably process tens of thousands of documents or more per week. In the next expansion phase, bookings will even be created fully automatically – without manual intervention. Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer (CPO) Patrik Elfert says: “With the AI agent, we bring artificial intelligence directly into the everyday life of logistics. We not only reduce manual work steps but also create the basis for fully digital and audit-proof processes in load carrier management – thus making a strategic contribution to the digitization of the supply chain.”
The pallet slip as “the smallest common denominator”
Why do companies still rely on paper at all? Hüning explains: “For many companies, paper remains the smallest common denominator: Different systems are often not interconnected, and when external partners come into play, paper is often the only means of documentation at the ramp.” Therefore, the “classic” pallet slip is still prevalent in logistics and production everyday life. “Our vision is to fully automate load carrier processes and thus create a completely paperless environment. At the same time, we see that the reality currently looks different. This is exactly where our AI agent comes in,” adds Hüning.
