parcelLab is a Munich-headquartered post-purchase experience platform (parcelLab GmbH) used by retailers including IKEA, Hugo Boss, Dyson, Puma, and John Lewis to turn delivery and returns into a branded, revenue-generating part of the customer journey. The platform spans four modules — Convert (pre-checkout delivery promise), Engage (multichannel post-purchase communications), Retain (Returns Portal and returns experience), and Insights (analytics, benchmarking, control tower) — layered with AI agents (WISMO/R, Insights, Fraud & Abuse) and exposed via the parcelLab API v4 Enhanced. Global, EU, and US regional endpoints are available; the same data backs a Model Context Protocol server at agents.parcellab.com/mcp/ for agentic clients.
