magicplan Announces New Feature for Direct Photo Sharing with Xactimate

new magicplan_logo.jpg
October 31, 2023

magicplan, the leading floor plan app for restoration and claims professionals for creating sketches in real-time and documenting the job site, now offers an even more seamless experience by allowing users to send photos directly to Xactimate®. This update is geared towards further streamlining the often complicated and time-consuming tasks that industry professionals face.

With just a few taps, magicplan users can now send their project images straight to Xactimate®, eliminating the need for additional steps such as switching between multiple platforms or manually uploading photos. This new feature complements magicplan's existing capability to send floor plans directly to Xactimate®, making it a comprehensive tool for those looking to save time and effort in completing restoration projects or insurance claims.

In a recently released video, a magicplan team member demonstrated the efficiency of the app by scanning an entire property and sending both the sketch and photos to Xactimate® in less than 10 minutes. 

By integrating seamlessly with Xactimate®, magicplan reinforces its commitment to simplifying work through smart technology. The update is immediately available and can be accessed by updating the magicplan app through your device's app store.

For more details on how the integration works, you can visit their help center or reach out to their team.
