Manifold is a field documentation app used by public adjusters and restoration contractors to build insurance claim files. It captures GPS-tagged, timestamped photos automatically, supports photo-required documentation checklists for each stage of a loss, and exports structured PDF claim reports in one tap. Orbit Measure captures measurable 3D spatial records of affected areas on any iOS or Android phone.
This guide covers the complete documentation workflow for public adjusters — from pre-loss baseline records through first-visit loss documentation, remediation tracking, and final claim report.
A claim file needs to answer four questions unambiguously: what was the condition before the loss, what damage occurred and where, what is the spatial extent, and what was done and when. Most claim files answer these poorly — not because the work wasn’t done, but because the tools used weren’t designed to create a legally navigable record.
For public adjusters working with repeat clients — property managers, commercial landlords, multi-site operators — a baseline inspection record for each property means that when a loss occurs, the pre-existing condition of every surface is already documented. Manifold’s GPS photo timeline builds this automatically. Every inspection photo is timestamped and location-stamped as taken.
The first visit is the most critical. Conditions change fast. Everything captured needs to be GPS-tagged, timestamped, and organised by location before anything is moved or treated.
A photo shows what damage looks like. A 3D model shows its spatial extent, which determines scope and claim value. Orbit Measure captures a measurable 3D model on any iOS or Android phone in 60 seconds, accurate to half an inch, shareable via link without requiring a return site visit.
Use Manifold’s photo-required checklists for each stage: equipment placement, daily moisture readings, material removal, hidden damage found. Each item locked until a photo is attached — a timestamped record that each step was done and documented.
Manifold generates a branded PDF with one tap: photos by location and timestamp, moisture reading progression, completed checklist, and 3D walkthrough link. The adjuster gets a structured, navigable document. No ambiguity about what was found, what was done, or when.
GPS-tagged arrival photos of all affected areas, moisture readings photographed at each monitoring point, daily drying logs with equipment placement records, 3D spatial documentation of damage extent, material removal records showing what was found underneath, and final readings confirming drying targets. Manifold captures all of this in a structured workflow and exports as a single PDF.
Orbit Measure captures a measurable 3D model of any space in 60 seconds on any iOS or Android phone — no specialist hardware required, accurate to half an inch. For insurance claims, it gives the carrier adjuster a navigable spatial record of damage extent without requiring a site visit. Scope and claim value are easier to establish with a 3D spatial record than with flat photos alone.
A public adjuster works on behalf of the policyholder to maximise the claim. An insurance adjuster works on behalf of the carrier to evaluate it. Both review the same documentation. A well-documented claim file — GPS-tagged photos, spatial records, structured moisture logs, organised PDF — is harder to dispute regardless of which side is reviewing it.
