Bill of Lading Software That Turns Paperwork Into a Few Taps
A bill of lading, or BOL, is the document that travels with a load. It says what is being shipped, who sent it, who receives it, and it acts as the receipt when the goods arrive. Bill of lading software creates that BOL digitally, captures the signature at delivery, and keeps every copy in one place. With AIQ Connect it runs on your own server, under your own brand, with no fee per vehicle.
Create a BOL in Seconds
Pick the shipper, the consignee and the load, and the document builds itself. Addresses, item descriptions, weights and piece counts pull straight from the job, so nobody retypes the same details twice. What used to be a pad of carbon paper on a clipboard is now a few taps before the truck rolls.
- Shipper, consignee and load details filled from the job
- Item description, weight and piece count included
- A numbered document ready before departure
Digital Signature at Delivery
The receiver signs on the driver's phone, and that signature saves to the document with the time and the GPS location. No lost paper copies, no waiting for a driver to hand in a folder at the end of the week. The signed proof is in your office the moment the load is handed over.
- Receiver signs on the driver's phone
- Time and GPS location stamped on the signature
- Signed copy in the office within seconds
Damage Notes and Exceptions
Not every delivery is clean. If a pallet arrives damaged or a count is short, the driver records it on the document with a photo before the receiver signs. That note becomes your record if a claim follows, so an argument weeks later is settled with evidence instead of memory.
- Short counts and damage recorded at delivery
- Photos attached to the exception note
- Clear evidence if a freight claim is raised
Search Every Document Instantly
Every BOL is stored and searchable, so finding one takes seconds instead of a trip to the filing cabinet. Look up by number, customer, date or driver, then send a copy to a client who is chasing proof. Because it is self-hosted, all of it stays on your own server for as long as you need.
- Search by BOL number, client, date or driver
- Send a copy to a customer in one click
- Documents stored on your own server
Inside the Bill of Lading Software Console
Live screens from the self-hosted AIQ Connect platform. Your documents, your server, your brand.
The Whole Document on One Screen
Shipper, consignee, pieces and weight sit on one clean document, and the receiver's signature drops in at delivery. Every field comes from the job you already booked, so the numbers on the paperwork match the load on the truck. No retyping, and no version that only exists in a cab somewhere.
- Every field filled from the booked job
- Signature captured at the delivery point
- One version everyone can see
Know What Happened at Every Drop
Each document event lands in one feed. A load is signed for, a damaged pallet is logged with a photo, or a short count is flagged before the driver leaves. Your office learns about a problem while the truck is still on site, which is when it is cheapest and easiest to sort out.
- Signed, damaged and short-count events together
- Photos attached to every exception
- Problems flagged while the driver is still there
Find Any Document in Seconds
Bill of lading software stores every document and makes it searchable by number, customer, date or driver. When a client chases proof of delivery or a claim needs backing up, you pull the signed copy and the photos in seconds. The filing cabinet, and the hunt through a driver's folder, both disappear.
- Search by number, client, date or driver
- Signed copies and photos in one place
- Send proof to a customer in one click

| Signature at delivery | Pen on paper, easily lost | Digital, with time and GPS |
| Office sees the signed copy | Days later | Within seconds |
| Damage and short counts | Scribbled, often missed | Logged with photos |
| Finding an old document | Filing cabinet search | Searchable in seconds |
| Where documents live | Paper files or vendor cloud | Your own server, permanently |
| Pricing model | Per-vehicle monthly fee | One-time license, no per-vehicle fees |
