BEFORE / AFTER
What changes with Swiftask
Without Swiftask
The customer sends an email requesting a return. Support must check the order in AfterShip, validate eligibility, reply to the customer, then update the status. This cycle takes hours or even days.
With Swiftask + AfterShip
The customer submits their request. The AI agent instantly checks eligibility rules via AfterShip, approves the request, sends return instructions, and updates the status. Everything happens in seconds.
Automate your returns in 4 steps
STEP 1 : Create your return agent in Swiftask
Configure a specialized agent capable of understanding return requests and querying your AfterShip data.
STEP 2 : Connect your AfterShip account
Integrate Swiftask with AfterShip in a few clicks to allow the agent to check delivery statuses and order details.
STEP 3 : Define your validation rules
Set up the automatic acceptance conditions (timeframe, product condition, order type) for the agent to follow.
STEP 4 : Activate and automate
The agent now handles incoming requests, communicates with the customer, and synchronizes data with AfterShip automatically.
