How Zoll Experts Automates International Commercial Invoices with Cambrion

Initial situation:
Zoll Experts supports clients who deal with complex international commercial invoices every day. These invoices often span multiple pages, contain nested tables, and follow no consistent format – a major hurdle for automated processing.

Challenge:
The previous OCR solution was template-based and failed to handle document diversity. Key pain points included:

  • Multiple article numbers per line – only one was relevant

  • Nested table structures and page breaks

  • High manual workload and error rates in data extraction

Goal:
Zoll Experts aimed to dramatically reduce manual effort, boost accuracy, and increase flexibility when processing customs-relevant invoice data – with seamless integration into their existing systems.

The Cambrion Solution: Adaptable Pipelines via API

Using Cambrion, Zoll Experts created robust pipelines tailored to their specific use case – without templates, training data, or coding.

Cambrion enables:

  • Extraction from multi-page documents with nested data

  • Seamless data transfer to Zoll Experts’ backend via API

  • Full control over which data points to extract and how

  • Custom rules like “extract only the first article number per item”

Quantifiable Results
