Create damage reports for insurance claims digitally
Capture damage in a structured way, document it reliably and inform everyone involved in the claims process.
Whether motor claims, building damage, liability cases, machinery breakdown or other insured losses: with deep.rent, insurers, surveyors, workshops, property managers and businesses document damage on site – with checklists, photos, PDF and automatic delivery to everyone involved in the claim.
Damage documentation that speeds up insurance processes
In a claim, every minute and every solid piece of evidence counts. Incomplete files delay settlement, surveys and repair.
deep.rent helps capture damage consistently: what happened? where did it occur? which parts or areas are affected? which photos and details do insurer, surveyor or workshop need? All in one digital damage report – instead of scattered photos, emails and handwritten notes.

Photos, descriptions and checklists with timestamp and location context.
-
Clear loss scope

The problem with unstructured claim notifications
Many claims stall not because of the loss itself – but because documentation is incomplete or hard to follow.
Photos via messaging apps, loose emails, handwritten sketches and missing mandatory fields lead to follow-ups, repeat visits and uncertainty about scope, cause and timing. Insurance claims need a clear, complete basis from the start.
- incomplete damage description
- photos without assignment to damage area
- missing cause and time details
- inconsistent capture by different teams
- delayed forwarding to insurer or surveyor
- no standardized checkpoints per line of business
- weak evidence for liability or motor claims
- manual assembly of claim files
- many follow-ups during settlement
- unclear responsibilities between parties
How deep.rent solves this
A digital damage report guides through relevant checklists, attaches photos directly, captures object and loss data in a structured way and can automatically send results to insurer, surveyor, workshop or management after completion – as PDF or link to the protocol viewer.
Checklists: capture damage completely and by line of business
Different checkpoints per insurance line – with templates that miss nothing important.
For motor claims, bodywork, glass, tyres and technology are captured in structure. For building damage, rooms, components, moisture and consequential damage. In industry, machinery, plant parts and operational context. Checklists ensure surveyors, adjusters and workshops receive the same complete information base.
-
Line-specific templates
Motor, property, liability, industry – right checkpoints from the start.
-
Guided loss capture
Step by step through cause, scope, affected areas and photos.
-
Photos in context
Images tied to the damage area – not collected loosely.
-
Consistent standards
All field and service teams document to the same criteria.
-
Gaps visible immediately
Missing points are obvious before the report is closed.
Document quickly – right at the loss location
Claims happen without warning. Documentation must be possible immediately, without an office detour.
Classic workflow: take photos, paper notes, assemble everything in the office later, email insurer and surveyor. That costs time and delays settlement.
- sort on-site photos later
- transfer notes from paper
- email multiple recipients
- supply missing mandatory fields
- build PDFs manually
- answer insurer follow-ups
- repeat visits due to incomplete files
- archive claim files manually
One flow – from loss location to finished report
Complete the checklist on site, take photos, close the claim: deep.rent generates the PDF and can trigger delivery to defined recipients automatically. Settlement, survey and repair start faster – with complete documentation.
Mobile on site – also for claimants via link
Loss capture on smartphone or tablet – for professionals on site and optionally for policyholders via self-service.
Teams document directly at the vehicle, in the apartment, at the building or at the plant. Alternatively, policyholders can submit initial details and photos via link – data flows structured into the further claims process.

Self-service for policyholders
