Warranty triage requires expert agents
Determining whether a claim is covered, in-warranty, or out-of-warranty takes agent expertise. Gorgias / Zendesk / Re:amaze queues stall while shoppers wait days.
Slow resolution, low CSAT, churn

The Problem
Replacement-vs-refund decisions are inconsistent
Different agents make different calls on the same claim. Without an AI agent applying policy consistently, shoppers complain and chargebacks rise.
Higher chargebacks, brand inconsistency
Klaviyo and Attentive cannot run the claim conversation
Klaviyo, Attentive, Postscript, and Mailchimp can prompt a claim but cannot triage, approve, or dispatch a replacement.
Broadcast is not enough
Marketplace warranty claims hit SLA
Amazon, eBay, Etsy, Walmart Marketplace, and TikTok Shop measure warranty response time. Slow responses drop seller rating.
Lower marketplace placement
