VouchCam vs. CompanyCam: Why Passive Photo Buckets Still Lose $1,800/Job in Xactimate Scrubs
Executive Summary: VouchCam vs. CompanyCam
CompanyCam is a general-purpose cloud photo storage app built for everyday trade visibility, whereas VouchCam is an activeIICRC & Xactimate Field Compliance Engine built specifically to stop insurance desk adjusters from cutting mitigation and roofing claims. While CompanyCam charges $79 to $300+/month to store unsorted jobsite photos in the cloud, it never warns a technician that their moisture meter photo is blurry, never blocks site exit when the Unaffected Dry Standard shot is missing, and never detects unbilled WTR EQD or RFG IWS Xactimate codes. VouchCam enforces trade-specific Hard-Gate checklists on site, aligns Before/After splits with a live Ghost-Overlay camera, and includes a 1-Click CompanyCam Archive Importer.
CompanyCam: $79–$99/mo minimum (3-seat floor, $29–$39/user/mo) vs. VouchCam Pro: $12.99/mo or $89/yr flat (no seat minimums).

| Evaluation Criterion | CompanyCam | VouchCam Verified Proof |
|---|---|---|
