Optoro

Optimizes retail returns management processes

About

Optoro specializes in improving the returns process for retailers and e-commerce businesses. The company provides a returns management solution that uses machine learning to efficiently route returned items to their best next destination, such as restocking, resale, or recycling. This helps retailers recover lost profits, reduce processing times, and enhance customer satisfaction. Optoro operates on a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, offering a branded returns portal and integration with existing systems, along with access to a network of drop-off locations. The company generates revenue through subscription fees and transaction fees from secondary marketplace sales. Optoro aims to streamline returns for retailers while promoting environmental sustainability by minimizing waste and encouraging the reuse of products.
