How the score is weighted
Questions about coverage and itemized estimates carry the most weight because a panel cannot work without them. Photos, policy reading and hidden-damage checks come next. Organizational items count, but less.
What a low score means
A low score does not mean your claim is weak. It means the file is not ready yet. Appraisal awards are binding on the amount of loss, so demanding appraisal before the scope is complete can lock in a number that leaves damage out.
After you score well
A strong score is the right moment for an estimate review: a line-by-line look at where the two estimates differ and what the difference is likely worth.
Questions about this tool
Is my score saved anywhere?
No. It exists only on this page and disappears when you leave or reset.
Can I demand appraisal with a low score?
You can, but you risk a binding award built on an incomplete scope. Close the gaps first where you can.
