Questions

What do I need?

A phone and something of known size in the photo: a coin or a ruler, flat against the same surface as the damage.

What if I don't have a coin?

You still get a report, but only with percentages (how much of the surface is affected). SnapClaim won't guess millimeters without a scale, and the report says so.

Is the report a legal document?

No. It's careful documentation of what the photo shows. It doesn't decide who is at fault or what anyone owes. You decide what to do with it.

Do I have to type anything?

No. Say what happened in a sentence or two. Your words are transcribed and attached to the report exactly as you said them.

What happens to my location and phone details?

Photos often carry GPS and device information. SnapClaim strips it the moment a photo comes in, before anything else happens.

Can I use it today?

A demo backend is live in mock mode at https://snapclaim-backend.parithosh.workers.dev - every number it returns is measured by deterministic code, with mock stand-ins for the AI steps. Run the capture app locally from the repo's pwa/ folder and press Use sample measurement for the full loop. Live AI steps switch on with API keys; follow the build on GitHub.

Next time something breaks, snap it first.
