This process is prone to inconsistency, subjectivity, and delays, especially in large-scale operations that must process high volumes of returned items while maintaining policy and warranty compliance.

The Returns Defect Adjudication Agent integrates advanced computer vision, sensor data, product metadata, warranty information, and defect taxonomies into a unified adjudication workflow. It analyzes high-resolution images to assess item condition, compares findings against product specifications and historical inspection data, and classifies defects with high precision. Based on these results, it automatically recommends disposition actions—restock, repair, or dispose—aligned with organizational policy and warranty eligibility. Ambiguous or edge cases are escalated to human reviewers with annotated visuals and contextual summaries for rapid decision-making.

By delivering consistent, automated, and accurate adjudication, this agent reduces manual bottlenecks, operational costs, and cycle times. It enhances policy compliance, increases process and employee productivity, and ensures standardization across all return scenarios, ultimately driving scalable and efficient reverse logistics operations.
