"I chased one of the Perch alerts for a fire inside our city's bus terminal. The guy called me back the next day saying they couldn't get the smoke smell out of the building - please come help us. Easily a $75,000-$100,000 job, just because of one Perch Alert."

"I'd been fire chasing for over a year with a lot of effort and no success - until I signed up for Perch Alerts. Within nine days, we brought in our first restoration job from a 911 call. It was an assisted-living facility with a fire in their salon. Within 10 minutes of seeing the alert, I reached out to the property manager, and we secured the job for the rebuild."

Within just two days of signing up, we landed a new account. They've also been extremely easy to work with, tailoring their service to fit our specific needs. Highly recommend them to anyone in the emergency services or claims industry looking to grow their pipeline!"

"I already use two other alert platforms, but wanted to give Perch a shot. Just 28 hours after signing up, I received a fire alert from Perch that didn't come through on any other platform. I was the only person on scene and signed the loss. Nothing but positive vibes for the future!"
About Perch
Who's behind Perch
I'm Ryan, the owner of Perch Alerts. My career has been in software, but my dad was a general contractor, so I grew up around the restoration business. I know what it takes to win: you have to get there first.
That's what Perch is for. It listens to thousands of communities across the country so you hear about a loss the moment it's confirmed on scene. Reach out if you need anything, I read and respond to every email.

Frequently asked questions
Have a different question and can't find the answer you're looking for? Send us an email or and we'll get back to you ASAP.
- How does Perch Alerts work?
- Perch Alerts monitors emergency radio traffic in thousands of local communities across the country, finds confirmed property damage incidents, and sends alerts to our customers in the area.
- Who is Perch Alerts a good fit for?
- Perch Alerts was built for restoration firms and public adjusters who want to win more jobs and claims faster. It's a good fit for anyone who wants fast property damage alerts without monitoring emergency radio scanners 24/7.
- What kinds of incidents will I get alerts for?
- You'll be alerted for any confirmed incidents that we detect on local emergency radio scanners in your community, where the nature of the incident indicates that significant private property damage is likely. In practice, this mostly means structure fires, but we also see lots of alerts for major water damage, vehicles crashing into buildings, trees falling on buildings, major hazmat incidents, and more.
- What info does each alert contain?
- Every alert contains a summary of the incident, the validated address of the incident, and a link to your dashboard where you can view the highlighted transcripts where the AI detected the incident. You can even listen to the radio segment recordings.
- How is Perch Alerts different from a monitoring system I'm already using?
- Many property damage monitoring services use people to listen to the radio scanners and send out alerts. This can sometimes work well if they have excellent training, but it's very expensive and often error-prone to have a human monitoring dozens of radio channels in your area 24/7 for property damage. With the recent advances in AI, Perch Alerts gives you a cost-effective way to monitor any amount of geography 24/7. We encourage you to test Perch Alerts side-by-side against your current system!
- How accurate are the alerts?
- Most alerts are accurate, but no system is perfect, and our AI does make mistakes. We automatically check a sample of its work every day and keep improving it. If an alert doesn't look right, you can flag it with one tap, and we'll investigate and use what we learn to make the system better.
- How long after property damage until the alert is sent?
- We wait until a unit on scene confirms the damage, then send the alert at once. Most alerts reach you within a few minutes of that confirmation. In those minutes we transcribe the audio, analyze it with AI, validate the address and other details, and deliver the alert to you.
- How are the alerts delivered?
- Alerts are delivered by email and text message. You can also send them to other apps with our Zapier integration.
- Do you have coverage in my area?
- We cover thousands of communities coast to coast, covering more than 9 in 10 Americans. Request a quote and we'll confirm coverage for your counties.
- How much does it cost?
- Pricing depends on how many counties you cover. Request a quote and we'll confirm coverage for your counties and email you pricing. Each alert represents a real-world loss event, and one job typically pays for the service for years.
- Do you offer a free trial?
- Yes, every plan starts with a 7-day free trial so you can see how it will work for your firm and your coverage area. Request a quote and we'll confirm coverage for your counties, then send you pricing and a link to start your trial.
- Is there a commitment?
- No, there are no commitments, the billing plans are month-to-month and you can cancel at any time if your circumstances have changed and Perch Alerts no longer is a good fit for you.
- Do you offer exclusive coverage?
- No. Fire radio is public, so there's no such thing as an exclusive fire. Everyone hears the same call. Speed wins the job, and Perch gets you there first.
- How many people on my team can get the alerts?
- You can add as many team members as you want to the system, and they can each receive the alerts for your coverage area.
- Do you have a mobile app?
- Not yet. Alerts come by email and text message, so they already reach your phone.
- What if an incident changes after an alert is sent?
- While an incident is open and ongoing, updates will be sent via email and text message if anything material changes about the incident (upgrade or downgrade in severity, location change, incident wrapping up, etc)
- Do you have owner contact and property value info?
- Yes, for most properties (about 4 in 5). We pull the owner's name, phone, and property value from third-party property databases.
- Can you integrate with my CRM?
- Yes! Our Zapier integration lets you connect Perch Alerts to thousands of other apps, including CRMs like HubSpot and Pipedrive, project management tools, and more. You can automatically create leads, update spreadsheets, or trigger any workflow when new alerts come in.
- How long does it take to set up?
- Setup is quick and easy! Request a quote and we'll confirm coverage for your counties, then email you pricing and a link to start your trial. Once you sign up, you'll get an email to log in and start getting alerts!
- Can I update my coverage areas later?
- Yes, you can change the counties in your coverage area at any time as a customer.
- What if I need support after I sign up?
- As a customer, you can always reach our support team by email or text message, and we'll get back to you as quickly as possible.
- What if I have more questions?
- If you have any other questions or would like a demo, please email us at support@perchalerts.com or you can with us.
