The Pitch

Idea Description

ReturnSync automates complex Shopify return/exchange and wholesale reconciliation workflows that Zapier/Make drop when rules branch. - Ingests return requests, order history, and inventory to compute restock, refund, and wholesale credit actions. - Applies conditional business rules (partial refunds, restock fees, exchange inventory holds) and reconciles accounting entries. - Ships as a merchant-facing app and admin dashboard to stop manual spreadsheet reconciliation.

The Edge

Differentiator

Focus on branching, idempotent return rules plus accounting reconciliation — not just notifying teams — making it hard to replace with Zapier chains.
