OCR tools like Veryfi and Klippa read a freight document and extract its fields into structured data — line items, amounts, addresses — which you still have to interpret. IntelMS answers the question itself, returns it with the exact clause or line cited, flags when two documents disagree, and escalates compliance-critical calls to a human.
Put simply: OCR extracts; IntelMS answers, cites, and flags conflicts. They're adjacent tools — extraction turns paper into data, while IntelMS turns your question into a cited, defensible answer against the agreement that governs it.

Both start with the same document. The question is what comes out the other side: structured fields you interpret, or a cited answer you can act on and defend.
| For a freight or customs question… | OCR extraction (Veryfi / Klippa-style) | IntelMS (cited-answer layer) |
|---|---|---|
| What it returns | Extracted fields and data from the document. | A direct answer to your question, in plain language. |
| Does it cite a source? | Returns the value, not a clause-level citation to the governing agreement. | Every answer carries an exact citation to the clause or line. |
| Checks against your contract | You compare the extracted value to the agreement yourself or in another tool. | Compares the charge to your rate and accessorial agreement and flags a mismatch. |
| When two documents disagree | Extracts both; reconciliation is on you. | Flags the conflict so you catch it before paying or shipping. |
| Compliance-critical calls (e.g. HS codes) | May output a value automatically. | Escalates to your customs lead — never auto-decides classification. |
| How you use it | Integrate the data into a workflow or system. | Ask by email, get a cited answer back — nothing to integrate. |
| Pricing shape | Often per page, per document or per API call. | Flat price, no per-seat, unlimited users (CAD $199 / $499 / $999). |
This is a fair, outcomes-only comparison. Extraction tools are excellent at turning documents into data at scale; IntelMS is built to answer and verify a question against the governing agreement. Some teams use both.
An extraction tool can pull "28% fuel surcharge" off an invoice. The question that saves money is whether 28% is what you agreed to — and answering that means checking the rate agreement. That's the step IntelMS does for you, with the clause cited.
IntelMS doesn't just surface the figure — it tells you whether it matches the governing agreement, and cites the clause so you can act on it.
When an invoice, a BOL and a rate sheet disagree, the conflict is flagged instead of left for you to reconcile field by field.
Customs classification and other compliance-critical questions are escalated to a person — never auto-decided. Replies are drafts by default.
Plug in your shipment volume and invoice values and see what catching mismatches against your agreements saves — against a flat monthly price, no per-seat math.
See your ROIOCR tools read a freight document and extract its fields into structured data — line items, amounts, dates, addresses — which you then have to interpret or feed into another system. IntelMS answers the question you actually have, such as whether a charge matches the contracted rate, and returns the answer with the exact clause or line cited, flags when two documents disagree, and escalates compliance-critical calls like customs classification to a human. OCR gives you the data; IntelMS gives you the cited answer.
They solve adjacent problems. Veryfi and Klippa are strong at turning documents into structured fields at scale. IntelMS sits one layer up: instead of returning extracted fields, it answers a freight or customs question against your own contracts and agreements with a citation, flags conflicts between documents, and routes contractual or compliance calls to a person. Some teams use extraction to populate a system and IntelMS to answer and verify against the governing agreement.
Yes. Ask whether a charge on an invoice or BOL matches your rate and accessorial agreement, and IntelMS returns the contracted figure with the clause cited, and flags the conflict if they disagree. Since roughly 5 to 8 percent of freight invoices contain billing errors, catching the mismatch against the agreement — not just extracting the number — is where the savings are.
No. IntelMS answers from the customs and classification documents you already have and cites them, and flags when two documents disagree, but it does not auto-decide a classification because that is compliance-critical. The final call is escalated to your customs lead, and answers come back as cited drafts rather than automated decisions.
IntelMS is one flat price for any document type, with no per-seat fees and unlimited users: CAD $199, $499 or $999 per month depending on volume, and you can start a free pilot first. Many extraction tools price per page, per document or per API call, so the right comparison depends on your volume — but IntelMS is built to be predictable regardless of how many people ask questions.
