Transform Retail Operations
with Human-in-the-Loop AI Solutions

Your returns desk is drowning in RMAs. Your call center is 40% WISMO calls. Your LP team reviews maybe 1% of camera footage. And your regional VPs wait three days for a sell-through report that should take three minutes. We build AI that plugs into your POS, OMS, and WMS to fix these problems — with a human in the loop so nothing goes out the door unchecked.

Key Use Cases

Where the Hours Actually Go

These are the workflows that eat your labor budget, tank your CSAT scores, and keep your district managers up at night. Each one is a concrete AI deployment we build and run for you.

Return & Refund Processing

Your returns desk processes 200+ items a day — each one needs a receipt match, condition inspection, inventory update, and refund trigger across three different systems. It takes 15 minutes per return, the refund cycle averages 9 days, and every day that item sits unprocessed it loses resale value on the shelf. Our AI reads the receipt or label, validates the RMA against your OMS, checks return window and item condition, fires the refund to your payment processor, and pushes the SKU back into available inventory — all in under 3 minutes. During holiday surge, that is the difference between clearing the queue by close and hiring 12 temps.

"Where Is My Order?" (WISMO)

"Where is my order?" is the single most common reason customers call, chat, and email you — it accounts for 25-50% of all service contacts. Every one of those tickets costs $5-8 in agent time, and the agent is just copying a tracking number from one screen to another. Our AI pulls real-time carrier data from UPS, FedEx, USPS, and your ship-from-store systems, resolves 80% of WISMO inquiries in under 30 seconds, and proactively pushes delivery updates via SMS so customers never need to call in the first place. During Black Friday and Cyber Monday, when WISMO volume spikes 3x, this is what keeps your AHT from cratering your NPS.

AI Call Center

Staffing a call center through Black Friday is a nightmare — you hire 50 seasonal reps in October, spend three weeks training them, and half quit by January. Meanwhile, 70% of what they handle is routine: loyalty points balance, store hours, BOPIS pickup windows, product availability by location. Our AI voice and chat agents handle all of that 24/7, across every channel, with instant access to your POS, inventory, and CRM. Your human agents focus on the calls that actually need a human — complaints, chargebacks, and upselling. The result: you stop over-hiring for peak and your CSAT stops dipping every Q4.

Real-time video intelligence

Your LP team has 200 cameras and two monitors. They review maybe 1% of footage, and ORC rings know it. Self-checkout shrinkage alone costs the average big-box location $150K a year in miss-scans, sweethearting, and ticket switching. Our AI watches every feed, every second — flagging scan-to-bag mismatches, after-hours door activity, and repeat offender patterns with timestamped, evidence-grade clips. Floor LP gets an alert on their phone before the person leaves the store. No false accusations, no lawsuits — just data-backed intervention that cuts shrinkage by 5%+ across the fleet.

Database AI (NL2SQL)

Your regional VP wants to know which stores have the worst sell-through rate on winter coats so she can decide on markdowns before the season ends. Today that is a Slack message to analytics, a ticket in Jira, and a spreadsheet three days later. With our NL2SQL layer, she types the question in plain English and gets the answer in seconds — pulled live from your POS, inventory, and pricing systems. No analyst bottleneck, no stale data, no exporting CSVs. GMROI, sell-through by SKU, planogram compliance, markdown velocity — all queryable by anyone with a login.

Implementation Process

How We Work

We show up, walk your floor, learn your systems, and ship a working solution. No six-month discovery phase.

01

Walk the Floor

We come on-site, shadow your returns desk, sit with your call center leads, and map every system touch-point from POS to WMS. We deliver a scoped proposal — free of charge, no strings attached.

02

Build to Your Stack

Once you approve the plan, we build the AI against your actual SKU catalogs, return policies, carrier integrations, and POS data formats. Not a generic demo — your data, your rules.

03

Plug In & Pressure Test

We connect via API to your existing systems — no rip-and-replace. Then we run it against real transaction volume: returns, WISMO calls, LP footage. Your ops team validates accuracy before anything goes live.

04

Go Live & Keep Getting Better

The system goes live and learns from every transaction. You get dashboards showing resolution rates, processing times, and exception queues. Accuracy improves week over week without manual retraining.

Enterprise-Ready Solution

Stop Throwing Bodies at Problems AI Can Solve

Every peak season you over-hire, every shrinkage report you file, every three-day wait for a sell-through number — those are symptoms of workflows that should have been automated yesterday. Let us walk your floor and show you exactly where.
