The comps you assemble by hand, delivered in milliseconds.

Total-loss and DV work runs on realized comparable sales. Residual maintains a continuously updated corpus of hundreds of thousands of realized salvage auction outcomes and retrieves the comparables for any subject vehicle — with a market value estimate built from those exact comps.

What you get per lookup

• Comparable sold lots — year/make/model, damage, sale date, and realized sale price for the most comparable real sales — matched on vehicle class and make, then ranked by similarity to your subject vehicle.
• A market value estimate derived from those comps, with a calibrated price range alongside it, and the model version stamped on every response.
• Measured accuracy — the model is measured weekly against real held-out sales it never trained on; how we measure sets out the protocol.

Check it yourself

Every estimate is a range, and 9 out of 10 sales land inside it, measured on 74,824 sales the model never trained on (Aug 31–Sep 5, 2026). Try a few vehicles from closed files that sold after Aug 31, 2026, which the model has never seen, and see where their sale prices fall. Expect about 1 in 10 to land outside the range: it's a rate across many sales, not a guarantee for any one vehicle. Run a vehicle, free. Questions about the method: info@residualauto.com.

Why this fits appraisal-clause work

You occupy the appraiser seat; software can't. What software can do is arm that seat: comps-and-adjustments is the language the dispute is conducted in, and a flat-fee appraisal practice lives or dies on how fast it can assemble defensible comps. That's the entire product. Residual sells data to appraisers — it does not compete for the appointment.

And the seat is getting busier: Texas made the appraisal clause mandatory in every personal auto policy from January 1, 2026, with hard deadlines at each step — our SB 458 guide covers the new process. More disputes on a 20-day appraiser-appointment clock means faster comp assembly matters more, not less.
