CapOut is an innovative platform that utilizes AI technology specifically designed for roofing and restoration contractors. When a scope PDF is provided by an insurance adjuster, CapOut meticulously analyzes each line item, transforming it into a structured ESX file that can be seamlessly uploaded into Xactimate. It calculates potential profits by trade, utilizing the actual material prices and labor costs of the contractor, and produces ready-to-use material and labor orders categorized by trade, all from just one PDF upload. For professional users, there is the option to implement personalized pricing and labor cost strategies, ensuring that the profit overview accurately represents their specific cost framework rather than relying on generalized industry standards. Additionally, CapOut features an AI Claim Assistant that aids contractors in pinpointing line items that may be disputed and identifying any gaps in the scope. Developed by an experienced contractor who managed insurance restoration projects for over 15 years, CapOut emphasizes the importance of the transition from scope to production as a vital workflow rather than a mere afterthought, ensuring efficiency and reliability in the process. This attention to detail enhances the overall effectiveness of managing restoration projects in a competitive market.
