The Service

What is
estimate writing?

Estimate writing is a service where a licensed adjuster builds the complete, full-scope repair estimate for a property claim on behalf of an insurance carrier, using verified inspection data from the field. The carrier receives a finished, defensible estimate in ESX and XML formats, ready to drop into its estimating platform.

SeekNow pairs licensed estimating expertise with structured property intelligence from our coast-to-coast Seeker network. Whether the claim involves a roof, exterior elevations, or a complex interior loss, our licensed adjusters generate complete estimates fast, so your team can review and close instead of scope and build.

Why carriers offload estimates

Estimate writing is one of the largest drivers of loss adjustment expense and cycle time. Building each scope in-house ties up experienced adjusters on production work instead of decisions. Offloading the writing to licensed professionals backed by verified field data cuts LAE, protects consistency across files, and scales instantly during weather events without adding headcount.

Two Ways to Get an Estimate

Full service or fast draft.
You choose per claim.

Estimate Writing and FastEstimate solve different problems. One fully offloads the work to a licensed professional. The other puts a draft in your adjuster's hands the moment the inspection is complete. Most carriers use both, matched to claim complexity and volume.
