About Item Assist

Founder-led contents pricing research built from real insurance valuation experience.

Item Assist helps adjusters, vendors, and carrier claim teams turn contents lists into specialist-reviewed, claim-ready pricing research with documented LKQ replacement logic, RCV support, and ACV-ready item details.

Built for the Reality of Contents Claims

Contents pricing is rarely as simple as finding the first similar product online. Claimed items are often discontinued, partially identified, missing model information, or difficult to compare against current replacements.

Item Assist was built to give claim professionals a more organized, defensible way to research contents pricing. Our work is focused on item-by-item research, clear replacement reasoning, documented pricing support, and practical claim file usability.

Insurance Valuation Experience Behind the Process

Item Assist is a founder-led market pricing research service built from deep insurance valuation experience. Our approach is informed by years of hands-on work inside insurance valuation workflows, including experience across carrier, vendor, and adjuster environments.

That background includes high-volume claim reporting, direct communication with adjusters and insureds, and maintaining pricing resources for electronics, appliances, powered equipment, and specialty items commonly encountered in property damage claims.

Core Principles

Specialist-led judgment, technology-supported research, and claim-ready documentation shape every assignment.

Specialist-Led

Pricing recommendations are reviewed through a claims-focused lens, not treated as generic product search results.

Technology-Supported

Modern research tools help organize incomplete data, compare specifications, track sources, and reduce missed details.

Claim-Ready

Reports are built to support adjuster workflows with documented LKQ reasoning, pricing rationale, and RCV/ACV-ready findings.

Defensible by Design

When a direct match exists, we verify it. When it does not, we explain the market clearly and document the assumptions that matter.
