When damage is detected (via sensors or manual trigger), the app guides workers to take tamper-proof photos/videos with automatic timestamps, GPS, and RFID scans. AI immediately validates evidence quality, checks for completeness, and logs a secure chain-of-custody. The evidence is instantly synced with WMS/ERP and submitted to carriers with a verifiable report, reducing rejections and manual effort.",
