Time is Money: The Hidden Cost of Manual Disputes
Most sellers manage dispute resolution manually—collecting evidence, filling forms, following up with marketplaces. It's inefficient and costly.
The Time Breakdown
- Evidence collection: 8-10 hours/month
- Form filling and documentation: 12-15 hours/month
- Follow-ups with marketplace: 10-15 hours/month
- Manual escalations: 5-10 hours/month
- Total: 35-50 hours/month
What This Costs You
For a team of 3 people managing disputes, that's ₹2,50,000 - ₹5,00,000/month in labor costs alone. Add in lost cases and chargeback fees, and the true cost becomes staggering.
How Automation Changes the Game
An automated system handles:
- Evidence collection at dispatch (automated)
- Marketplace submission (auto-formatted)
- Follow-ups and escalations (rule-based)
- Analytics and patterns (AI-driven)
Result: The same workload gets done in 4-6 hours/month with better outcomes.
