How Roof Manager plugs into the Xactimate workflow

1. Measure the roof from satellite

Enter the property address. Roof Manager generates a pitch-corrected sloped area, projected footprint, and every edge length (ridge, hip, valley, eave, rake) using Google's LiDAR-calibrated Solar API.

2. Pull material quantities into Xactimate F9 lines

The BOM section gives you shingle squares, starter strip, ridge cap linear feet, ice-and-water shield, underlayment rolls, drip edge, and flashing — in the exact units Xactimate's F9 line items expect.

3. Submit the PDF with your supplement

Every report exports as a branded PDF with satellite imagery, pitch diagram, and confidence score. Adjusters accept it as supporting documentation for the Xactimate estimate.
