Insurance claim estimating software that shows its work
An insurance claim estimate is an argument. Every quantity, unit price and depreciation percentage will be read by someone whose job is to disagree with it. iScope Cloud is built so each number has a reason behind it.
What a claim estimate has to get right
Property claim estimating is different from bidding a remodel. The scope is dictated by the damage, the pricing has to be defensible against a carrier's own numbers, and the policy decides how replacement cost, depreciation and actual cash value are presented. Software that was built for bids leaves you doing that work by hand.
Quantities that come from measurements
In iScope Cloud, rooms are drawn, not described. The sketch knows each room's floor area, wall area, ceiling area and perimeter, and every line item's quantity formula pulls from those figures. Move a wall and the drywall, paint and baseboard quantities move with it. Reviewers can see where every quantity came from.
Pricing with a date and a place
The catalog is refreshed monthly from national construction cost data, and labor is adjusted to the loss ZIP code with government wage statistics. Each estimate records the pricing month it was built with, so a file written in March still reads correctly in September.
RCV, depreciation and ACV, the way the policy reads
Set depreciation at the estimate or line level, apply overhead and profit where it belongs, and let iScope carry the replacement cost value, recoverable depreciation and actual cash value through to the PDF. The math is the same every time, so you spend your attention on the scope.
Documentation on the same project
Photos are dropped onto the sketch, so each one is tied to the room where it was taken. Inspection pins mark the exact damage. The estimate PDF and the photo report come from the same project, with your letterhead and your opening and closing statements.
Built by a public adjuster
iScope began as a working public adjuster's own tool, written because the programs on the market fought the way adjusters actually work. It is now a browser-based platform used by adjusters, contractors and restoration companies, and it still answers to the same test: does the estimate hold up at the table?
