What you'll accomplish
By the end of this guide, you'll have Restoration AI set up to generate professional insurance supplement requests using industry-standard Xactimate codes — the purpose-built tool that roofing contractors use specifically for supplementing, rather than adapting a general AI tool. A supplement that once took 90 minutes now takes 15.
What you'll need
- A Restoration AI account (restorationai.com — subscription required, ~$100–200/month; check current pricing)
- The insurance adjuster's scope of work / line-item estimate (the PDF or printout from the insurance company)
- Your damage photos from CompanyCam or your phone
- Basic knowledge of what was missed in the adjuster's estimate
- Time needed: 45–60 minutes to get familiar with the platform; 15 minutes per supplement after that
- Cost: Subscription (~$100–200/month depending on plan) — typically worth it if you're supplementing 2+ jobs per month
