What's inside
Six tools, one address-level data engine. Ship time-to-decision down from days to seconds.
Live MRMS radar
LiveSub-2-hour latency from when the radar sees hail to when it's in your report. NCEP MESH_Max_1440min ingested every 4 hours, indexed for instant point-in-polygon lookup.
Engineered hail swath maps
Pro viewColor-ramped polygons by max hail size, the visual adjusters expect. Combines MRMS live data with 10+ years of SWDI NEXRAD radar. Click any swath for date and intensity.
AI roof inspection
BetaUpload a roof photo, get a preliminary hail-damage assessment in seconds. Claude vision identifies bruising, granule loss, flashing dents. Calibrated, not over-confident. Always recommends professional verification.
Branded PDF reports
ComingGenerate a one-page hail-history report with your logo and license number. The deliverable adjusters accept in claim packets. Sources cited (NOAA, SPC, NWS, MRMS).
Bulk address lookup
ComingUpload a CSV of 50 addresses, get a CSV back with scores, max hail, last event date, and claim-window status. The daily-driver tool for canvassing teams.
Public API
ComingREST API behind contractor-scoped keys. Embed HailScore inside JobNimbus, AccuLynx, or your own back office. Rate-limited per key, JSON responses, OpenAPI spec.
How HailScore Pro stacks up
Honest comparison. Different products serve different jobs — HailScore Pro is the post-storm data + inspection stack.
| Capability | HailScore Pro | HailTrace | Hail Recon |
|---|---|---|---|
| Live radar (post-storm) | ✓ MRMS (<2hr) | SWDI (60–90d lag) | Radar-derived |
| Address-level risk score | ✓ HailScore™ | Storm-cell only | Hit / no-hit only |
| Hail swath visualization | ✓ Pro view | ✓ (legacy) | ✓ |
| AI roof damage screening | ✓ Beta | — | — |
| Property-level claim outcomes | Building | — | — |
| Free homeowner tier (your top-of-funnel) | ✓ | — | — |
| Public API | ✓ v1 live | Partner-only | Partner-only |
Comparison reflects publicly-listed features as of May 2026. HailTrace owns the industry-standard swath visualization built over a decade with adjusters, and Hail Recon owns the carrier-facing verification workflow. HailScore Pro focuses on live MRMS data, AI-assisted screening, address-level scoring, and the homeowner-trust funnel that pulls roofers and adjusters toward us.
Built for
The pain: Canvassing teams chase outdated SWDI radar; sales reps fight homeowners who don't know they have damage.
What you get: Pull live MRMS in the field, hand homeowners a HailScore report with your logo, send the AI inspection to your inbox before you knock the door.
The pain: Carriers demand date-of-loss evidence; pulling SPC reports and stitching radar takes hours per claim.
What you get: One address, one PDF, every source cited. The $9.95 storm-history report is built for claim packets.
The pain: Homeowners come to you weeks after the storm asking 'was I really hit?'
What you get: Address-level HailScore plus the swath map plus the AI photo screening = three independent confirmations in one screen.
The pain: Storm response is reactive — you find out a city got hit when the leads dry up.
What you get: Subscribe to storm alerts at your service-area zips. We notify you within minutes of an MRMS hit or NWS warning polygon.
What you actually get, by trade
Same data engine, four very different workflows. Here's exactly what each role unlocks and the concrete pain it kills.
Disclose roof health before the buyer's inspector finds it
The pain
A buyer's inspector flags hail damage you didn't see, and you're renegotiating mid-escrow.
What you actually get
- Score every listing in your book in 30 seconds (bulk lookup up to 50 addresses)
- Request a $79 roof cert in 48h with a vetted local contractor — attaches straight to disclosure
- Storm alerts on your active listings (we tell you within minutes of an MRMS hit on a saved address)
- Branded PDF showing 10-year storm history + score — drop it in your listing presentation
One avoided contract renegotiation more than covers a year of Pro.

The pain
Carriers want NOAA-cited evidence; stitching SPC + radar by hand is 45 min per claim.
What you actually get
- One-page storm-history PDF per address, NOAA + MRMS + NWS cited, ready for the claim file
- Claim-window verification: was the address inside an active hail polygon on the loss date?
- Bulk verify whole loss runs (50+ addresses at once) instead of one-at-a-time SPC searches
- Engineered hail-swath visualization adjusters already know how to read
Cut 30+ minutes per claim. At 10 claims a week that's a full workday.
Full walkthrough →Add a storm-history page to every inspection report
The pain
Your competitor doesn't have it. You both inspect the same houses. One of you has a closing-edge differentiator.
What you actually get
- Pre-load tomorrow's inspections via bulk lookup the night before
- One-click branded PDF page with your logo + license number to staple into reports
- AI roof photo screening: upload field photos, get a preliminary damage call in seconds (beta, free)
- Address-level HailScore signals whether you should look harder at the roof
Upsell your inspection at $25-50 more per job. Pays for itself in two inspections.
Full walkthrough →Pre-install hail exposure check — know warranty risk before you sign
The pain
Panel warranties exclude hail above certain sizes. You sign first, learn the property has a 2.5" history second.
What you actually get
- 10-year hail-size history at the exact install address (≥0.75" radar coverage 2015–today)
- Bulk-assess proposals before sales calls — kill bad-fit properties early
- Storm alerts on installed systems: get notified inside an hour of any MRMS hit on a property you've sold
- Engineered swath maps quantify which neighborhoods are panel-warranty risk zones
Avoid one rejected warranty claim and the year is paid for.
