## Description

You can stop manually calculating return percentages and revenue leakage.

When you ask your agent about performance, it uses these tools to pull specific metrics without you needing to export CSVs or build complex formulas. 

You can pinpoint exactly how much money is walking out the door using monetary rates, or see if a specific product is causing a spike in return frequency.
