Terms of Use (EULA): https://stormclaim-2e55a.web.app/terms-of-service.html Privacy Policy: https://stormclaim-2e55a.web.app/privacy-policy.html StormClaim's AI analysis is a starting point for your professional judgment, not a replacement for it. StormClaim does not submit claims directly to insurance carriers - no carrier offers that as a public capability - but does generate carrier-ready documentation and gets you their real contact information in one tap.
