ClearQC®

Highlights concerns within a valuation to direct the reviewers’ efforts and shave time off the process. ClearQC runs 100 rules on each appraisal to review the completeness and consistency of the appraisal, errors with the photos and sketch, the condition of a property, and more.

ClearPhoto®

A powerful set of AI-driven rules that automates the review of property photos and
confirms they are aligned with the appraisal data and sketch. ClearPhoto significantly reduces time spent identifying the photo-related error(s) by instantly checking for property photos’ accuracy and quality.

Condition Model

AI assesses a property’s condition using appraisal photos and property data, then compares the condition to the appraiser’s C-rating to flag discrepancies.

Risky Terms

Detect bias within the appraisal with risky terms rules that scan for problematic language that violates guidelines. Customize to scan for any negative terms.
