Automated Loop Returns Policy Exception Drafts

Every morning, WebRun opens Loop Returns, identifies return requests that triggered a policy exception such as a late return or a non-returnable item, drafts a clear, on-brand response for each, and saves it as a Gmail draft so your team can review and send it with a single click.

In short

How do I automatically draft responses to return policy exceptions for my team to approve?

WebRun opens Loop Returns every morning and finds every return request that triggered a policy exception, such as a late return or a non-returnable item. It drafts a clear, on-brand response for each and saves it as a Gmail draft addressed to the customer. No message is sent until a human reviews and approves it.

  • Every policy exception has a drafted response ready for review each morning
  • No exception response is ever sent without a human approving it first
  • Team spends minutes approving drafts instead of writing responses from scratch

Questions, answered

Will WebRun send the exception response to the customer automatically?

No. Every response is saved as a Gmail draft and left unsent. A human must review and click Send, so no customer receives a message without approval.

What kinds of policy exceptions does it cover?

It handles the most common exception types in Loop Returns: late returns outside the window, non-returnable items, returns missing original tags, and items flagged as final sale.

Can I customize the draft tone or offer an alternative resolution?

Yes. During setup you can give WebRun a tone guide and specify which exception types should include an alternative, such as store credit, and it will follow those rules in every draft.

Put this on autopilot.
