Photo management and organization has always been a time intensive challenge for property adjusters, but it doesn't have to be!

PLNAR has evolved the photo data capture process of claims to another level. No need for external drives to transfer photos or hand crafted reports. We are streaming lining that process. 

With the 3.0 launch of PLNAR, Adjusters can now save valuable time managing photos and then importing them into estimation software.  With PLNAR 3.0 you can either add photos to an existing measured room or create a room that only has photos in it, no measurements.

Organization
PLNAR photos are automatically added to the room during the AR session.  Every photo captured in the AR session is automatically tagged with:

  • Project name (claim)

  • Room name

  • GPS location

  • Exact position in the room where the photo was taken

  • Name of photo includes the room name and date/time stamp

Annotation
You can quickly add descriptions attached to photos using  speech-to-text functionality.  This saves time typing and allows for immediate annotation while onsite.

Cloud Storage/Accessibility
As soon as you upload a project, it is stored in the cloud and accessible from any device.  You can send links to photos or the entire zip file if you like so that others can quickly see the photos.

XACTIMATE or Symbility (Estimation Software) IMPORT
While we don't have a programmatic integration into XACT or Symbility, we have made it very simple to import photos from PLNAR.  Our photo ZIP includes all the photos organized by room and named accordingly with room_datetime.  This makes it simple to drag and drop the compressed pictures into XACT / Symbility instead of wasting time with mind-numbing editing of photos.

We provide a beautiful, carrier approved, PDF  with a 3x3 gallery of thumbnails. 

We also have added a 2 x 2 detailed photo page with your in-app information for important documentation. 

The PLNAR Report PDF can easily be imported as well.  An example report is available here.

SPATIAL AWARENESS
The photos taken in AR mode are AUTOMATICALLY grouped by the room and embedded into a virtual model of the room.  You can see an example of a measured room with the photos embedded here.  A photo-only flow will only have the cameras and not the entire 3D model.  https://plnar.co/demo/3d/beverly/ 

For Adjusters, time is money.  That is why PLNAR has optimized the photo-taking process specifically for Adjusters.  Save time capturing the photos and back office entry time with PLNAR.
