About Wave
Wave was started by Albert Aguilera, a restoration operator and licensed general contractor, to fix the tools that slow restoration claims for everyone in the process: carriers, restorers, and the homeowners waiting for work to begin.
I've worked restoration jobs from the field side, and what I kept seeing was the same problem from every angle. The work moves fast. The paperwork doesn't. Adjusters are buried in scopes. Carriers can't get consistent estimates. Restorers spend hours on admin that doesn't help anyone. Homeowners wait weeks for jobs that should close in days.
The tools are part of it. The estimating software the industry runs on was built for the early 2000s, designed when desktop applications and manual line-item entry were the state of the art. Twenty years later, the workflows are essentially unchanged, while every other industry has been rebuilt around AI and the modern web.
The result is structurally misaligned. Carriers want fast, consistent, defensible estimates. Homeowners want their lives back. Restorers want to stop bleeding margin to admin work. The tools the industry runs on produce friction in every direction at once.
I built Wave to close that gap. Not a tool that picks a side, but one that brings the technician's information, the carrier's standards, and the homeowner's timeline into a single workflow that takes minutes instead of weeks. This is the version of restoration estimating the industry should already have. It's what we're building now.
