AI Output Audit · Demonstration
Customer support response
What was reviewed
- AI-generated customer email, summarized here instead of showing the full raw draft.
- Customer wants to know when a refund will arrive.
- Business needs a reply that is helpful without promising an unconfirmed payment timeline.
Main findings
- Timeline promise: the draft gives a 3-5 business day refund window without confirming the order or processor status.
- Verification gap: it does not ask for an order number, email, or other detail needed to check the refund.
- Missing next step: the customer is not told who will check the refund or what happens after they reply.
- Tone issue: polite but template-like; it may feel dismissive because the customer is waiting on money.
Medium: customer confusion and overpromising. The risky part is not the tone; it is the unverified payment timeline.
Prompt guidance
Tell the AI not to guess refund timing. Require it to ask for the order identifier, explain the next step, and only mention timing after verification.
Safer rewrite
Thanks for reaching out. I can help check the refund status for you. Please send your order number or the email used at checkout, and I will confirm where the refund is in the process. If it has already been issued, I will share the confirmed timing from our payment processor instead of guessing.
Final recommendation
Do not send the original unchanged. Either verify the refund first or use the safer rewrite that asks for the details needed to check status.
