01How it works

Turn a sticker into cryptographic proof.

01

Pack with a QR

Every item gets a unique QR code, with photo, hash, and timestamp captured the moment it's packed.

02

Box sealed

One final photo of the open box with every item inside — required before it's sealed.

03

Customer confirms

On delivery, the customer scans the QR and confirms they got exactly what was promised.

04

If something's off

An AI-assisted report compares the photos and helps you decide with proof, not guesswork.

02OPV Protocol

The artificial intelligence that works inside your QR code.

Layer 1 · deterministic

Optical geometry measurement

Compares the QR code's position against fixed points on the product (seam, logo, edge) and flags shifting, removal, or re-application — calibrated so normal wear never gets mistaken for tampering. It's deterministic and auditable: the same pair of photos always returns the same result, which matters the moment it becomes evidence in a dispute.

Layer 2 · interpretation

Generative AI visual analysis

Compares the packing photo against the problem photo and writes a clear report for both you and your customer. This is the layer that handles what needs judgment — damage, wear, context.

Decision-support evidence — the final call on every dispute is always yours.

05Built for the real world

Add value, build your brand, upgrade the customer experience, and kill return fraud for good.

A visible QR label is placed on an appropriate external area of the product. Its position becomes part of the visual evidence, while the customer can remove it before normal use.

06Dispute-ready dossier

Bring organized evidence to every dispute in one click.

3S prepares a PDF with the order timeline, visual records, hashes and the AI-assisted analysis. The report supports your review and platform submissions without promising an automatic outcome.

08Why act now

Complex problems, simple fixes.

29%

of customers never buy again after a single bad delivery — even when it's the carrier's fault, not yours.

48%

abandon their cart over shipping costs that only show up at the last second, at checkout.

82%

buy more when returns are easy — but easy returns are also an open door for fraud.

10Frequently asked questions

Before you sign up, get your answers.

Do I need to install an app?+

No app-store download needed. 3S works directly in your browser, on mobile or desktop — same link and login on every device. You can add a home-screen shortcut for convenience, but there's nothing to install.

Does 3S work with my sales platform?+

Shopify is tested. During the pilot, stores from other marketplaces can start through assisted CSV onboarding while their direct connectors are developed and validated.

How does plan billing work?+

Each plan includes a monthly volume of supervised physical items. The pilot includes 10 items without a card. Paid checkout and overage rules will be shown before billing is activated.

Does the AI make the final call on a dispute?+

No. The AI report is a suggestion to speed up your review — the final decision (accept, deny, exchange, refund) is always yours.

Is it compliant with privacy laws?+

3S is being designed with GDPR and other applicable privacy requirements in mind. Retention periods, service providers and safeguards are documented in the Privacy Policy and will be finalized before paid public launch.

Do I need any special equipment to get started?+

No — just the label printer you already use (Zebra, Argox, Elgin, Tomate, Phomemo) and a phone or tablet with a camera. No new hardware required.
