A few practical questions
Fits the way
you already work.
Will I need to replace my report-writing software?
No. Signal adds pre-delivery review and BRAVE file generation alongside your existing report-writing workflow. A replacement authoring platform is not required.
Does a BRAVE file replace the appraisal report?
No. BRAVE is structured appraisal data delivered alongside the appraisal PDF. Review the dataset for accuracy, validate it, and confirm your client’s delivery requirements.
Does pre-screening guarantee client acceptance?
No. Signal surfaces potential issues for your review. You retain responsibility for the appraisal, and the client applies its own review and acceptance process.
