A clear report for everyone involved
itel Material Matching is used on hundreds of thousands of claims every year. Every report gives adjusters, carriers, and homeowners a clear, consistent picture of the match determination — and what comes next.
Match determination — a clear yes or no, with the evidence behind it
Closest matching product — including the exact SKU when available
Supplier with product available — direct next steps to connect with a distributor of the matching material at the confirmed price
Homeowner report — a separate, plain-language report with images that explains the outcome to the policyholder, reducing the room for dispute

Discontinued? Not a problem.
We connect carriers, contractors, and homeowners to a warehouse of discontinued building materials — making small repairs possible even when the original product is no longer in production. When a match is found in discontinued stock, we automatically reserve the materials for 30 days, so the repair can proceed without delay. For roofing and siding claims, this means a damaged section stays a damaged section — not a trigger for full replacement.
