The agent evaluates the merchant behind a disputed transaction for credibility. It researches the merchant's reputation and regulatory history, weighs the evidence against a set of rules, and recommends whether the merchant is credible, with a rationale the human agent can accept or override.

## Workflow {#fso-merchant-analysis-for-disputes-ai-agent__xiiwareweppx}

The agent helps the human agent assess whether a disputed transaction's merchant is credible.

1. Look up the merchant details for the disputed transaction and confirm the required task data is present.
2. Display the task's case, transaction, customer, dispute amount, and reason code.
3. Search the web for information about the merchant's reputation, complaints, and regulatory history, prioritizing government and regulatory sources --- or fall back to analyzing the case details alone if search is unavailable.
4. Weigh the findings against a set of credibility rules to determine whether the merchant is credible or not.
5. Present the credibility assessment and its rationale, then ask the agent to agree or disagree.
6. If the agent disagrees, ask for their reasoning and record the opposite assessment instead.
7. Record the final credibility outcome and reasoning on the task, and close the conversation.
