Smart email and PDF scanning

How Jigcar automatically extracts movement requests from emails

B
Written by Bianca Monteiro

Many organisations receive vehicle movement requests by email. Jigcar's smart email parsing feature reads these emails and PDF attachments, extracts the key details, and creates draft movements for you to approve.

What gets extracted:

  • Vehicle registration numbers or VINs

  • Origin and destination addresses

  • Requested dates

  • Contact details

  • Special instructions or notes

Reviewing and correcting

The AI is accurate but not perfect. Always review draft movements before confirming, particularly:

  • Check addresses are correct (the parser may struggle with unusual formatting)

  • Verify vehicle details match

  • Add any information the email didn't include (e.g. transport type preference)

💡 Tip: The more consistently formatted the incoming emails are, the more accurate the parsing. If you're receiving requests from a regular sender, let them know that clear, structured emails get processed faster.

⚠️ Note: This feature can currently only process one movement at a time but we're working on this!
