About Us
MyAutoTriage was built around a simple observation: most drivers only learn how car insurance claims actually work in the middle of a stressful one. By then, they’re trying to understand terms like “diminished value” and “total loss formula” for the first time, often while an adjuster is already waiting for an answer.
We built MyAutoTriage to close that gap: a set of free, independent calculators and letter generators, paired with plain-English guides, so you can understand your situation and put your position in writing without needing to hire help for every step.
What we are — and what we are not
MyAutoTriage is an independent educational publisher. We are not an insurance company, an insurance agency, a law firm, or a claims adjuster, and we do not handle claims on anyone’s behalf. The tools on this site produce estimates and drafts based on general formulas and the information you enter — they are a starting point for your own research and decisions, not a substitute for professional advice.
How we make money
This site does not show ads yet, and we take no money from insurers, law firms, body shops or lead buyers. We plan to add display advertising (Google AdSense) to pay for running the site; when we do, this page and our Privacy Policy will say so, and advertising will never influence the content of our guides or the output of our calculators — see our Editorial Policy for details.
