One job with three manufacturers: a GoodWe inverter with two warranty conditions to confirm, a Tesla battery confirmed at commissioning, and a Jinko solar array with nothing to do. Two of three settled.
19 brands on the record
The problem

Nothing goes wrong on install day. That is the problem.

No alarm goes off when a warranty condition goes unmet. The job list still says done. The bill turns up a year and a half later, attached to a part failure that feels unrelated.

  1. Install day

    Three brands go on one roof, each with its own fine print. Connect this portal. Keep that delivery note. A serial nobody wrote down.

  2. That evening

    Nothing turns red. GoodWe's ten years is already five, because the inverter never reached their portal. The job list says done.

  3. 18 months on

    The inverter fails. You book the callout, and the office starts going through photos looking for a serial.

  4. The claim

    It stalls on proof nobody kept, or the term turns out shorter than the brochure said. Either way the van was yours.

    $0 back

Your scheduling tool books the job and sends the invoice. It does not know GoodWe wants its portal connected, or that Enphase pays $200 toward the visit while 15 other brands pay nothing. So nobody chases it.

How it works

Three steps, and that is the whole product

Step 1 · On the roof

Photograph the nameplate. That is the whole step.

Your tech holds up a phone. Claim Timer reads the make, model and serial off the photo and fills the record in before anyone climbs down.

  • Under 20 seconds, one hand, in the sun

  • Anything the read is unsure of comes back amber, so it gets checked instead of trusted

  • The photo stays on the record, so you can always prove the serial you registered

The capture screen on a phone: a photographed Sungrow nameplate in the viewfinder, make and model read cleanly, and the serial flagged amber for a human check.

Step 2 · Back at the office

Every brand's fine print, on the record before you need it

One job is three manufacturers with three different asks. GoodWe wants its portal connected. Tesla wants the battery to stay online. REC only gives you its best cover if a certified installer registered the job. Claim Timer holds each item open until somebody confirms it.

  • Terms read from each manufacturer's own document, with the date somebody read it

  • Enphase pays $200 toward the visit. 15 of the 19 brands here pay nothing

  • The 3 brands with a real deadline get a countdown. The rest get the truth

The job screen: a GoodWe inverter marked to confirm, its two warranty conditions listed, the confirm button, a Tesla battery already confirmed, and a toast reading confirmed, off the list.

Step 3 · Eighteen months later

The claim is built before the part fails

A claim is a checklist of what that manufacturer asks for, filled from the job record. Nothing gets dug up, because it was captured on the day.

  • Submit stays locked until every piece of evidence is attached

  • One PDF with the serial, install date and confirmation number on the cover

  • Chase dates, denial reasons and what you are still owed, all tracked

A claim with five of five evidence items ready, the download button, the exported claim pack PDF, and 1,840 dollars recovered.

We will not guess what your truck roll costs

Every warranty page on the internet prints a truck roll range. None of them have seen your rates. What we can tell you is what the manufacturers pay back, because we read the documents and wrote down the date.

Claim Timer sits next to Jobber, Housecall Pro and ServiceTitan. It does not replace them.
