Berlin, 26th of March 2026 – FortoLabs, the platform for AI-native SaaS solutions from the freight forwarder Forto, is now offering “Explore LumoDoc”, a public and free access to test its first product, LumoDoc. This allows companies to test AI-based document processing directly on the FortoLabs website without complex setup or integration efforts. By uploading their own documents, users receive direct insight within seconds into how LumoDoc reduces manual entry and verification efforts while accelerating workflows.

Automated processing for logistics documents

LumoDoc is an AI-based SaaS solution from FortoLabs designed for the automated processing of logistics documents. Using generative AI, the system categorizes incoming documents, extracts relevant data, and transfers it in a structured format into downstream IT systems. All common logistics documents are supported, including packing lists, customs documents, invoices, and bills of lading. The primary goal is to reduce manual data entry, lower error rates, and provide noticeable relief for operational teams.
“With Explore, we are radically simplifying access to LumoDoc AI.: instead of long demos and complex setups, companies can now test the  solution in just a few moments using their own documents,” explains Tamer Cagatay, Director of FortoLabs. “This makes the value of the AI and the automation potential within document-based processes immediately visible.”

Experiencing FortoLabs’ AI technology in real-time

In the interactive “Explore LumoDoc” playground environment, users can upload various document types, such as PDFs or images, and immediately observe how the AI recognizes and extracts relevant information. Results appear in less than one minute. Explore LumoDoc highlights extracted data points directly within the document, allowing users to trace exactly where the AI found each piece of information. This ensures the entire processing remains transparent and easy to verify.
An additional “Pick-to-Review” feature allows users to click on text passages directly within the results to validate them against the original document. This rapid interaction demonstrates LumoDoc’s intuitive user interface and simplifies quality control for extracted data.

Quick start – even without own documents

Users who do not have their own documents at hand can access prepared samples of typical logistics documents, such as invoices, packing lists, or bill of ladings, to experience LumoDoc. This provides companies with a realistic impression of LumoDoc’s performance without any lead time. Instead of abstract product presentations, they experience firsthand how the AI works—offering a solid basis for evaluating automation and efficiency potentials in existing processes more concretely.

From internal tool to SaaS solution

FortoLabs is the platform for AI-native SaaS solutions in logistics from the tech-driven freight forwarder Forto. It builds upon AI capabilities that Forto originally developed and utilized for its own operational teams and processes. These tools have already led to time savings of up to 53 minutes per shipment within Forto’s own operations. Forto is now making these technologies available as independent SaaS products via the FortoLabs platform. Explore LumoDoc enables prospective customers to test and evaluate AI-powered document processing with minimal effort.

Documents as bottlenecks in supply chains

“Document-based processes remain one of the biggest bottlenecks in global supply chains today,” says Guillaume Petit-Perrin, CEO of Forto. “With LumoDoc, we want to fundamentally change these workflows through generative AI. “Explore LumoDoc” now opens FortoLabs technology to the market, making its benefits for companies along the supply chain directly experienceable for the first time.”
