Delivery Exception Resolver

Delivery exceptions — damaged parcels, stalled tracking, false 'delivered' scans, wrong addresses — arrive scattered across email and carrier alerts, and every hour spent triaging them is an hour the customer spends wondering where their order is. This assistant reads each exception report, classifies the issue type and how urgent it is, recommends a resolution matched to the situation and the customer's deadline, and drafts a reply that explains what happened and what you're doing about it. Your team clears exceptions in minutes with a consistent, deadline-aware response — protecting both the delivery date and the carrier claim instead of letting a slow trace lose the customer.

How it works

1. Forward or paste the delivery exception — the customer's message or carrier alert, the order number, and any photos or tracking detail.
2. The assistant classifies the exception type and rates how urgent it is against the customer's deadline.
3. It recommends a resolution — reship, refund, trace, or carrier claim — and drafts a reply explaining what happens next.
4. Your team reviews the resolution and approves before any reship, refund, or claim is issued.

Frequently asked questions

How does the Delivery Exception Resolver handle a 'delivered but not received' claim?

It classifies the exception type as a false 'delivered' scan, rates urgency based on the customer's deadline, and recommends a trace or carrier claim with a draft reply explaining the next steps — your team reviews and approves before any action is taken.

Do I need to connect my shipping carrier or email to use this assistant?

No, it works entirely within your Gaia workspace — you forward or paste the exception report, order number, and any details manually, so no external integrations are needed.

Does it automatically reship or refund items when a delivery exception occurs?

No, it only recommends a resolution and drafts a reply; your team must review and approve before any reship, refund, or carrier claim is issued.

Can I customize the resolution rules for different types of delivery exceptions?

Yes, you describe your shipping policy, resolution rules, and claims guidelines in the workspace, and the assistant assesses each exception against those rules to recommend a matched fix.
