Description
Pilot Company built a GenAI-powered document processing solution on the Databricks Data + AI Platform (using Agent Bricks) to automate handling of handwritten fuel bills of lading across over 300 document formats. Using a multi-modal few-shot approach with fuzzy matching, Pilot achieved 98.6% accuracy, a 99% reduction in manual processing, and a 90% decrease in overall processing costs.

Problem
Pilot Company faced major inefficiencies in its fuel billing process, with truck drivers uploading handwritten delivery forms that required time-consuming, error-prone manual data entry. Early attempts to automate the process with OCR and RPA failed to handle the complexity and variability of over 300 document formats.

Solution
With the Databricks Data + AI Platform, Pilot built a GenAI-powered document processing pipeline using Agent Bricks, progressing from classic OCR (76.2% accuracy) to few-shot prompting (84.7%) to a multi-modal few-shot approach feeding the model actual photos (94.3%), then implementing fuzzy matching against Delta Lake reference tables to boost accuracy to 98.6%. The team used the AI Gateway to connect to foundation models hosted in Amazon Bedrock, MLflow and MLflow Tracing to manage prompt versioning and model evaluation, Unity Catalog for governance and access control, and Monte Carlo to monitor the quality of vectorized document data and detect schema drift.
…“We moved to a multi-modal model and had controlled access through Databricks. Feeding the model the actual photos of the BOL rather than extracted text boosted our accuracy all the way up to 94.3%,” said Travis. “We think it’s because of the model’s ability to preserve spatia…
