How it works
- 01
Get your portal login
Tell us about your company and the work you need. We set up your client portal the same day, with no software to install.
- 02
Upload the job
Pick a service, add the property address and notes, then upload photos, drying logs and field sketches or paste a Matterport link.
- 03
We write the scope
An estimator sketches the structure in Xactimate, applies the price list for the loss ZIP code and scopes every trade. A senior estimator then reviews it.
- 04
Download ESX + PDF
You get an email when it's ready. Download the native .ESX file and PDF from the portal, then review and send it to the carrier under your own brand.
Supplements FAQs
More answers on our FAQ page.
Do you negotiate with the adjuster?
No. We write the supplement and the supporting notes; you or your public adjuster submit it and handle the conversation.
What files do I get back?
A native Xactimate .ESX file you can open, adjust and upload to the carrier, plus a PDF of the estimate with the sketch and photo references. Both are unbranded so they go out under your company name.
