Where it helps

## Three places to start.

Illustrative workflow patterns, not results from a specific customer.

Logistics & supply chain

### Shipping document intake

Extract fields from bills of lading, invoices and delivery notes, and flag mismatches.

Logistics & supply chain

### Exception routing

Spot delayed or incomplete shipments and route them to the right coordinator with context.

### Customer status answers

Answer routine “where is my order” questions from approved tracking data.

Use cases

## See the full workflow.

- [Shipment exception routing](https://lidvizion.ai/use-cases/shipment-exception-routing/): Operations Watch tracking and order data for shipments that are late, stuck or missing paperwork, and route each exception to the right coordinator with the order, carrier status and a suggested next step, before the customer has to ask.
- [“Where is my order?” answers](https://lidvizion.ai/use-cases/where-is-my-order-answers/): Customer support Answer customers’ order and delivery status questions from live order and tracking data, after confirming who is asking, and hand delayed, damaged or disputed shipments to a coordinator with the details attached.
- [Shift handover summaries](https://lidvizion.ai/use-cases/shift-handover-summaries/): Operations Pull the events, open issues and notes from a shift into one short handover summary, so the next shift starts knowing what happened, what is still open and what needs attention first.
- [Document intake and review](https://lidvizion.ai/use-cases/document-intake-review/): Operations Pull the fields out of incoming documents, check them against your rules, and route only the exceptions to a person.
- [Support triage and reply drafts](https://lidvizion.ai/use-cases/support-triage/): Customer support Classify incoming tickets, find the relevant answer, and draft a reply for an agent to check.
- [The weekly status brief](https://lidvizion.ai/use-cases/weekly-status-brief/): Operations Gather updates from approved tools, draft the brief, and flag the items that need a decision.

- [What is an AI agent in a business setting?](https://lidvizion.ai/answers/what-is-an-ai-agent-for-business/): An AI agent is software that uses a language model to carry out a multi-step task — reading information, deciding the next step and using connected tools — within limits the business sets, with people approving actions that matter.
- [How should a company prepare its data before using AI?](https://lidvizion.ai/answers/how-to-prepare-company-data-for-ai/): Prepare only the data one priority workflow needs: find where it lives, decide who may access it, clean the fields that workflow relies on, and name an owner who keeps it current. Company-wide data projects before a first use case usually stall.
- [Automate one workflow in 30 days](https://lidvizion.ai/guides/automate-one-workflow-in-30-days/): A four-week playbook to take one recurring workflow from manual to automated, with an owner, approval points and a measured result.
