Here's What Your Insurance Adjuster Knows (That You Don't)

Insurance companies have a playbook designed to pay you less. Here are the three tactics they're counting on right now:

The Black Box Scam

Their "proprietary valuation software" isn't magic—it's programmed to lowball you by $3,000-$7,000 on average.

They use "comparable vehicles" that are older, higher mileage, or have accident history to justify their low offer.

The Appraisal Trap

They know most people won't spend $500-$600 to challenge a $4,000 lowball offer.

By the time you get a certified appraisal, your rental coverage expires and financial pressure mounts—forcing you to accept.

The Appraisal Clause Secret

Your policy has an "Appraisal Clause" that lets you demand independent appraisal.

But you need legitimate evidence first—that's where we come in at 1/10th the cost of a certified appraisal.

💡 The Bottom Line: Insurance companies bet on you not having the data to fight back. Our reports level the playing field for less than a tank of gas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which option should I choose?

Silver ($29.95): Quick check to see if your carrier's offer is in the ballpark. Sample size varies by vehicle popularity and market availability.
Gold ($49.95): VIN-based comparison to real market sales with mileage adjustment. Most popular.
Platinum ($149.95): Complete negotiation package with professional guidance, bundle reports (CarFax, KBB, AutoCheck, JD Power), and appraisal credit.

Why doesn't the Silver/Gold report include full VINs for comparable vehicles?

Due to privacy laws and data licensing agreements, we cannot provide full VINs of comparable vehicles in basic reports. These reports are designed to give you quick, affordable insights to determine if your settlement is fair before investing more. For formal disputes requiring detailed documentation with full VINs, consider our Platinum Report or a Certified Appraisal.

Is this the same as a Certified Appraisal?

No. Certified Appraisals cost $500–$600+ and are used to formally challenge an insurer's offer. Our reports give you actionable insights at a fraction of the cost. The Platinum report includes a credit toward a Certified Appraisal if you decide to pursue one.

Where does your data come from?

Our analysis uses over 6.5 million premium market data points from verified transactions with rigorous statistical outlier removal for maximum data integrity.

What is Consumer Protection Pricing?

Our Platinum Reports use Consumer Protection Pricing methodology, which considers both the original asking price and final sale price for each comparable vehicle. When a vehicle's asking price is higher than its sale price, we use the asking price because it better reflects true market value. This approach prevents undervaluation and ensures you receive a fair, defensible market valuation.

My adjuster said their offer is "final." Can I still negotiate?

Absolutely. "Final" is a negotiation tactic designed to make you give up. Provide counter-evidence (like our report showing real market sales) and cite your policy's Appraisal Clause rights. Most adjusters will reconsider when presented with legitimate data.

How long do I have to challenge my settlement?

Typically 30-90 days depending on your state and policy terms. Don't wait—rental coverage ends fast and pressure increases daily. Get your report now while you still have leverage.

Will using this report make my insurance company angry?

They may push back initially, but it's your contractual right to challenge their valuation. Having data-backed evidence forces them to negotiate fairly or invoke the appraisal clause. You're not being difficult—you're being informed.

What if I already accepted their offer?

If you signed a release, it's difficult (but sometimes possible) to reopen. If you're still in negotiation and haven't signed, you have leverage. Time is critical—act now before signing anything.

Do you work with lawyers or certified appraisers?

Our Platinum reports are lawyer-ready and include a credit toward a certified appraisal if you choose to pursue one. We provide the data and evidence; you or your attorney use it as leverage in negotiations or arbitration.

— Sarah M., Fort Worth, TX

$6,400 Increase
2021 Ford F-150 • Total Loss

— Michael R., Dallas, TX

$3,200 Increase
2020 Toyota Camry • Total Loss

— Jennifer T., Houston, TX

$5,100 Increase
2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee • Total Loss

Don't let them win.

For less than a tank of gas, you can get the exact ammunition you need to fight back—or at minimum, know if their offer is actually fair.
