AI Agents

Retail & CPG

Order status and returns eat the contact center.

Retail produces millions of small decisions a day: where is my order, can I return this, why did the delivery fail. Agents connected to the OMS, the WMS and WhatsApp answer most of them and hand the rest to a person with full context.

Typical use cases

01Order status and returns over WhatsApp connected to the OMS
02Last-mile delivery coordination and exception handling
Order 48213Illustrative
Customer Support Agent
  1. Customer

    Order 48213 was supposed to arrive yesterday and nothing came.

  2. OMSOrder 48213 read: delivery failed 16:42, carrier event: address not found.

  3. Agent

    Sorry, Ana. The driver could not find the address. Confirm the street and a reference and I reschedule for tomorrow, 10 am to 1 pm.

  4. Customer

    Calle 60 #412, next to the pharmacy. I also want to return one of the two items.

  5. OMSRe-delivery booked, tomorrow 10:00 to 13:00. Return 48213-2 authorized under the 30-day policy, label generated.

  6. Handoff to a person

    The refund amount does not match what Ana paid, so it goes to Rocío in billing with the order and this conversation attached.

The Soriana figure comes from the last-mile platform DaCodes built, not from these three agents; the agents are the next step on that platform.

Fleet Check-Call Agent

The last mile, by voice

The agent calls the driver, hears the delay and moves the delivery window before the customer has to ask.

Live call
The agent asks the driver for status on the next delivery of the route.
TMS
The new ETA is written to the TMS, not to a side spreadsheet.
WhatsApp
Customer and dispatcher hear about the change at once.

FAQ

Questions from this industry

No. It reads order status, return policy and delivery events, and writes the return or the re-delivery back into the OMS with scoped permissions. Your systems stay the truth; the agent is the conversation on top of them.

Peaks are the reason to have the agent. The runtime scales horizontally, the daily cost ceiling is set per campaign in the Agent Console, and the pilot KPI is measured over the whole period, peaks included, never on a quiet week.

Because store and warehouse hiring is high volume and seasonal. In the AI Interviewer case a team went from 1,000 screening calls a month to 1,000 an hour (Proof Ledger, Sep 2026); your recruiters still make every decision.

Which process do we automate first?

Two discovery sessions, no cost, and you leave with two or three quick wins whether or not you build with us.
