What it does

This workflow compares what a customer says is wrong with a returned product against what their photos actually depict. When a return arrives in Front with a stated reason ("arrived broken", "never opened", "wrong item"), it sends the photos to a Hugging Face vision model and checks whether the visible condition is consistent with the claim. If the photos contradict the reason — an item described as unopened but clearly used, or claimed broken with no visible damage — it flags the RMA for fraud review instead of letting it auto-approve.

When to use it

Use it when return fraud or claim-padding is a real cost and you want a second check on the stated reason before a refund clears.

How it works

  1. 1A new return conversation in Front triggers the flow.
  2. 2Photos and the stated return reason are extracted.
  3. 3A Hugging Face model describes the actual visible condition of each photo.
  4. 4A logic branch compares the described condition against the claimed reason.
  5. 5Consistent claims are logged to Airtable as cleared; mismatches are marked for review.
  6. 6Flagged mismatches post an alert with photos and reasoning to the fraud-review Slack channel.
