Built by a licensed Public Adjuster
who was tired of drowning.

Dear Fellow Adjuster,

If you've been in this business for more than two storm seasons, you already know the sinking feeling.

It’s 9:30 PM on a Sunday night. Your kitchen table is covered in manila folders, engineering reports, and carrier reservation of rights letters. You have 750 unorganized inspection photos sitting in a chaotic camera roll on your iPhone. Two insureds texted you an hour ago asking if the carrier has issued payment yet. And somewhere in the back of your mind, a quiet panic is setting in: Did the 60-day Proof of Loss deadline on the commercial roof file in Dallas expire on Friday, or is it next Tuesday?

For twenty-five years, I lived that exact reality.

I’ve climbed 12/12 pitch tile roofs in Florida after hurricanes, scoped frozen pipe blowouts across North Texas during Winter Storm Uri, and argued line-item drywall costs with defensive carrier desk adjusters who had never once picked up a moisture meter.

Public Adjusters do noble work. When disaster strikes, we are the only licensed professionals standing between a devastated family or business owner and a massive insurance carrier’s delay-and-deny machinery.

Yet our reward for doing good work has always been administrative exhaustion. Every software tool I tried over the past two decades fell into one of two traps:

• The Carrier Trap: Tools built originally for insurance companies and independent carrier adjusters, designed around compliance checklists and cutting indemnity payouts rather than winning policyholder battles.
• The Bloat Trap: Enterprise software built by corporate sales executives charging $350 a seat, locking firms into multi-year contracts, and slapping 40 complex modules onto a screen when all an adjuster really needs is a clean file pipeline that prevents dropped balls.

Two years ago, I decided I was done drowning. I sat down with Tim, Jon, and Josh to build the software I wished I had twenty years ago.

We set three unbreakable rules:

1. Radical Simplicity: No vaporware modules. Just the 5 linear stages a file actually moves through: Intake, Evidence, Estimate, Demands, and the daily Next Action morning docket.
2. Honest Pricing: Flat $80 per seat. Policyholders always free. Zero per-claim tolls or cuts of your hard-earned fee settlements.
3. Privileged Confidentiality: Your files are your client's property. We do NOT train commercial AI models on your scopes or carrier letters.

Claim Hive was built so you can take back your weekends, give your clients an incredible experience, and handle double the claims with half the anxiety.

If you ever want to talk shop or ask a question about how we run files, my direct line is below. We’re in this together.
