Core Features of Brelly AI (V4)

Overview of the Dashboard, claim workspace, files, Financials, Co-Pilot, and estimate workflows in Brelly so you know where to go and what each area helps you do.

What Brelly Does

Brelly is a claims management platform that combines document intelligence with AI-powered analysis.

You can organize claim documents, compare estimates, track the claim over time, and use Co-Pilot to help analyze information, draft communications, and move work forward faster.

Brelly is built for public adjusters, contractors, policyholders, and attorneys working insurance property claims.

How Brelly Is Organized

Brelly has two main layers:

  • Dashboard for seeing all of your claim projects in one place

  • A claim workspace for doing the work inside a specific claim

Dashboard

Dashboard is the main place to browse claims across your workspace.

Use it to:

  • See all of your claim projects in one place

  • Switch between board view and list view

  • Search for the right claim faster

  • Use filters and sorting to narrow what you see

  • Open a claim and continue working right away

When you open a claim from the Dashboard, you move into that claim's workspace.

Claim Workspace

Each claim in Brelly has a workspace with these sections in the left sidebar:

Overview

Your claim's main home page. It brings together claim details, contacts, financial summary, policy information, and other key claim context in one place.

Files

Where your claim documents live. Upload policies, inspection reports, carrier letters, engineer reports, photos, and other claim documents.

The Files area currently supports PDF, DOC, DOCX, MD, and TXT files. Co-Pilot reads these files to answer questions, generate analysis, and help draft communications.

Financials

Your financial command center with six tabs:

  • Overview â Financial dashboard with key metrics and coverage tracking

  • Estimates â Import policyholder and carrier estimates with AI line-item extraction

  • Reconcile â Compare your estimate against the carrier's estimate by category and line item

  • Contents â Track contents items or personal property

  • Expenses â Track claim-related expenses

  • Payments â Record and allocate carrier payments

When you are ready to share or review estimate data outside Brelly, you can export estimate data as PDF, Excel, or CSV.

Timeline

Track claim activity over time. Use Timeline to document milestones, claim events, and notes so you keep a chronological record of the claim.

Conversations

Log and organize communication with adjusters, carriers, contractors, clients, attorneys, and other stakeholders. Co-Pilot can use this history when it helps you analyze the claim or draft a response.

Notes

Add context that is not in a document yet, such as phone call summaries, observations, or information from emails and text messages. Co-Pilot reads Notes the same way it reads uploaded files.

Co-Pilot

Co-Pilot is your AI assistant inside the claim workspace. Use it to ask questions about the claim, generate analysis, draft communications, compare information, and work from the claim context available to you.

Co-Pilot can use uploaded files, notes, conversations, claim details, and other workspace context to give more specific answers. It can also use profile and organization details when they help with drafting style, sender details, and sign-offs.

Co-Pilot adjusts guidance based on your role. For example, contractor guidance should stay focused on construction, scope, estimates, code, manufacturer details, and documentation, while policyholders can ask for plain-language explanations and next questions to consider.

Additional Features

Brelly also includes features that help teams share claim work, try early access tools, and automate repeat tasks.

Claim Sharing and Claim Portal

Claim Sharing lets you invite someone into a specific claim without giving them access to your full team workspace.

Invited users get a simpler Claim Portal focused on the shared claim. They can review the information available to them and ask Co-Pilot questions from their own account. Co-Pilot chats are private to the person who starts them.

Brelly Labs

Brelly Labs is where early access features can be turned on when they are available for your account. Open your profile menu and select Brelly Labs. For this release, Labs includes early access to Claim Sharing and Automations.

Automations

Automations let you schedule Co-Pilot to handle repeat claim work on a claim. You write a prompt for what Co-Pilot should do, and Brelly can notify you when it runs. You can also have Co-Pilot run your standard first steps on each new claim, using the "New claim becomes ready" trigger.

Automations are part of Brelly Labs early access. See the Automations article for what to expect.

Import Estimates, Compare Them, and Export the Result

One of Brelly's most powerful workflows lives in Financials.

Instead of only uploading an estimate PDF and asking Co-Pilot about it, you can work with estimate data in a structured way:

  1. Import Estimate â Upload an estimate file and let Brelly extract the line items

  2. Review Extracted Items â Approve, modify, or reject extracted items for accuracy

  3. Reconcile â Compare your estimate against the carrier's estimate with differences grouped by category

  4. Track Payments â Record carrier payments and connect them to the claim

  5. Export â Download estimate data as PDF, Excel, or CSV when you need to share it or review it outside Brelly

This gives you a structured view of the gap between what is being requested, what has been approved, and what has been paid.

What Co-Pilot Can Help With

Co-Pilot is not a generic chatbot. It works from the claim context in your workspace and can help across several parts of the claim:

Financial Analysis

  • Compare policyholder and carrier estimates with dollar differences by category

  • Identify coverage gaps and unpaid or reduced items

  • Calculate requested, approved, and paid amounts

  • Generate financial summaries for demand or supplement letters

Document Analysis

  • Summarize long documents such as engineer reports, policies, and carrier correspondence

  • Pull specific information from uploaded files

  • Cross-reference one document against another

  • Review supporting files while you work through the claim

Communications

  • Draft supplement requests tied to claim evidence

  • Draft rebuttal letters that reference documents and policy language

  • Create client-facing updates in plain language

  • Help prepare demand or claim-summary communications

Property and Claim Context

  • Pull in property-related context connected to the claim

  • Help update claim details, contacts, and policy information

  • Add notes or timeline events when you need to document what happened

Best practice: be specific when you ask Co-Pilot for something. Mention the files, estimate sections, categories, or questions you care about so the answer is more useful.

Key Workflows

Running a Claim from Intake to Settlement

  1. Start a new claim from New Claim, or use Guided Setup when you already have documents ready

  2. Upload claim documents to Files

  3. Import estimates through Financials > Estimates

  4. Review extracted line items for accuracy

  5. Use Reconcile to identify the financial gap

  6. Ask Co-Pilot to help draft the next communication or analyze the claim

  7. Track claim events, conversations, and payments as the claim moves forward

Analyzing a Carrier Denial

  1. Upload the denial letter and policy to Files

  2. Ask Co-Pilot what reasons the carrier gave for the denial and what the policy says about them

  3. Upload engineer reports, inspection photos, or other supporting documents

  4. Ask Co-Pilot to help draft a response tied to the evidence

Preparing for an Appraisal or Negotiation

  1. Import the relevant estimates

  2. Use Reconcile to establish the total gap with category breakdowns

  3. Ask Co-Pilot to summarize the disputed areas

  4. Use Timeline and Conversations to keep the history organized

  5. Export estimate data when you need to share the numbers outside Brelly
