Claim-Ready Contents Pricing Research for Adjusters
Item Assist provides specialist-led contents pricing research for insurance adjusters, vendors, and claim teams — item by item, documented, and claim-ready.
Send us the contents list, photos, receipts, or partial item details you have. We organize the information, verify original item details, identify supportable LKQ replacements, and return pricing research built for RCV and ACV workflows.
Specialist-Led Pricing Support
Technology helps us search broadly, organize incomplete information, compare specifications, and track sources. Experienced pricing specialists make the judgment calls.
Standard Review — Item Research & Pricing
For electronics, appliances, powered equipment, tools, and common claim items where specifications, model history, availability, and comparable replacements can be researched with confidence. Includes item organization, original item identification, LKQ replacement recommendation, RCV support, ACV-ready item details, and claim-ready reasoning notes.
Intake & Organization Support
Send us what you have. We help gather, clean, clarify, and organize contents information from lists, photos, receipts, notes, and partial descriptions before pricing begins. Item Assist may help collect item details, but does not discuss coverage, promise payment, or negotiate settlement.
Specialty & Complex Item Review
For high-end, discontinued, custom, incomplete, niche, or specialty items where a direct LKQ match is not obvious. Instead of forcing one unsupported number, we provide a dynamic pricing recommendation that explains how confirmed details, condition, included accessories, finish, and market category affect the pricing position.
LKQ Replacement Recommendations
We define the original item’s relevant replacement parameters first, then compare current market options against those specifications to avoid accidental upgrades, underpriced substitutes, mismatched specs, and weak comparables. The replacement target is fair, supportable, and claim-ready.
RCV & ACV Documentation Support
We provide documented market pricing research, original item details, current replacement support, and ACV-ready item information to support replacement cost value and actual cash value workflows. The goal is not just a number, but defensible pricing rationale.
Post-Report Explanation Support
Item Assist remains available after delivery to explain methodology, replacement logic, assumptions, limitations, and supporting details. This support helps adjusters, claim reviewers, supervisors, and vendors understand the reasoning behind the report.

Built for the Reality of Contents Claims
Contents pricing is rarely as simple as finding the first similar product online. Items may be discontinued, partially identified, missing serial data, upgraded by modern product lines, or difficult to compare against current replacements.
Item Assist helps reduce that uncertainty by applying a specialist-led research process to each item. We document what is known, identify what is missing, explain the replacement logic, and provide supportable pricing research before settlement decisions are finalized.
When a direct match exists, we verify it. When it does not, we explain the market clearly.
Why Pricing Accuracy Matters
Even small pricing inaccuracies can create meaningful claim impact at scale. A 10–15% pricing variance on a $10,000 contents settlement can represent $1,000–$1,500 in potential overpayment, underpayment, or disputed value.
For appliance, electronics, specialty, and large-loss contents claims, that impact can grow quickly when multiple items require detailed LKQ review.
Item Assist helps reduce that risk by providing specialist-led market pricing research, documented LKQ reasoning, and claim-ready support before settlement decisions are finalized.
Not Right For Every Assignment
Item Assist is not a coverage advisor, policy interpreter, or settlement authority. We do not price specialty antiques, collectibles, or highly subjective custom items where no reliable market comparable exists.
If a claim requires an insurer-accepted formal appraisal, we can note that clearly in our findings and recommend specialty appraisal review.
