Blake Adams reposted thisBlake Adams reposted thisAugust 2026 — Chicago/Green Bay Trip This was hands down one of my favorite trips to date. Getting to see our inspectors from all over the country answer the call, put others before themselves, and step up to help people begin the process of rebuilding is something special. It’s one thing to talk about the culture we have at Seek Now, but it’s another thing to see it firsthand. These guys have put in some early mornings and some really late nights. They’re tired, they’re away from their families, and the days aren’t always easy… BUT THEY SHOW UP EVERY SINGLE DAY. That says everything about the people we have here. We have an incredibly talented, dedicated, and caring group of people at Seek Now, and I couldn’t be more proud to be a part of it. To every inspector out there answering the call — thank you. Thank you for putting others first. Thank you for grinding through the long days. Thank you for being the difference and making an impact when people need it most. I couldn’t be more proud of what we have here. Keep showing up. Keep making a difference. 💚

Blake Adams shared thisOur newest solution is out now and available with all SeekNow property inspections. It takes over 150 data points captured by our network of 1,000+ Seekers in our field capture app and automatically creates an estimate aligned with an insurance carrier's guidelines. From ~30 minutes of work to <45 seconds. And a 37% quality improvement.Blake Adams shared thisOver the last decade, we’ve helped insurance carriers get consistent, accurate property data from the field in hours across every market. Now, we’re helping turn that data into draft estimates. Because when the data is structured the right way from the start, the estimate doesn’t need to be rebuilt. It just needs to be reviewed.

No disconnect between field and desk This is what happens when data collection and estimate creation are built on the same foundation. 🔗 https://hubs.la/Q04dffRx0 #FastEstimate #ClaimsTechnology #InsurTech #PropertyIntelligence #AdjusterTools

Blake Adams shared thisHonored to join the Susquehanna Growth Equity (SGE) Growth Fellows, a program where executive operators work alongside leaders from across the Susquehanna Growth Equity portfolio to help them tackle their toughest growth challenges. I've been fortunate to have mentors who invested real time in me over the years. Being on the other side of that is something I don't take lightly. I'm especially looking forward to the conversations around AI and go-to-market... It's one of the fastest-moving spaces right now, and I find that teaching forces you to sharpen your own thinking too. Grateful for the opportunity to give back through this group. https://lnkd.in/evJbUTiC

Blake Adams liked thisBlake Adams liked thisThis year’s #Flock2026 theme, “stretch, don’t shrink,” means so much more than meets the eye. When I first heard of it, I thought it was about the workforce - an ask for each person to do more work and prevent AI from taking over responsibilities and shrinking teams. But holy heck was I wrong and missing so many insights. By reuniting in person (my extreme extrovert is so fulfilled) and participating in: -A hilarious AND educational dating game product activity (Erin Gainey and Colleen Toliver never fail to excite and deliver) -An intentional, revolutionary role-specific AI exercise (Kim Hunter and Roman Lauer - simply the best leaders; what an incredible team you’ve cultivated!) -The most creative team building exercise to date -Mission moments of why what we do matters -Exciting product sessions, tying together our commitment to go above and beyond -And wrapping it up with a rejuvenating, intentional yoga class (thank you eternally, Jennifer Reinecke-Miller) I learned that “stretch, don’t shrink” means: -Exercising our creativity and being strategic and creative with our resources (AI, human connections, etc.) to accomplish more, instead of shrinking into the mundane, repetitive tasks just because “that’s just the way we’ve always done it” -Showing up for each other through tasks, time, and kind words, rather than solely shrinking back into our own problems and lanes -Embracing challenges and putting ourselves out there to shine and succeed, even though it can be comfortable and safer to shrink into the shadows Thank you, Florence Healthcare, for an invigorating few days. Florence Healthcare is full of unbelievable humans and I’m truly grateful to stretch with them. I cannot wait to see how we stretch our platform and ideas to better the industry! 💫

Blake Adams liked thisBlake Adams liked thisProperty decisions rarely stay on paper. They affect real people. A homeowner waiting for a claim to move forward. An adjuster trying to make the right call. A carrier managing volume after a storm. A property team deciding what needs attention next. That is why ground truth matters. At SeekNow, we deliver property intelligence captured in the field, supported by technology, and structured to help customers make faster, better decisions. Because when the data is clear, the next step can happen. Claims move. Repairs move. Homes move back toward normal. People move forward. That is what we mean by: Ground Truth that Keeps Life Moving. #SeekNow #GroundTruth #PropertyIntelligence #InsuranceClaims #FieldInspections #ClaimsTechnology

Blake Adams liked thisBlake Adams liked thisAt the heart of SeekNow is our 1,000+ strong Ground Truth Network. These are the Seekers who show up in the field every day, providing coast-to-coast coverage and helping customers get the property intelligence they need to move decisions forward. John Digby is one of those Seekers. His story is a reminder that every inspection starts with a person: someone climbing the roof, walking the property, capturing the details, and helping deliver the ground truth that carriers, property managers, asset managers, and homeowners rely on. Technology helps power the process. But people like John are what make the network real. That is what we mean by Ground Truth that Keeps Life Moving. Thank you, John, and thank you to every Seeker helping keep property intelligence moving across the country. #SeekNow #SeekerStory #GroundTruthNetwork #FieldInspections #PropertyIntelligence #GroundTruth

Blake Adams reacted on thisBlake Adams reacted on thisA little delayed announcement, but one I’m finally excited to share! 🎉 Back in April, I applied to join The League with Florence Healthcare, and I’m proud to share that I was accepted! One thing I’ve learned about leadership is that you can never stop learning. As a leader in the clinical research industry, I need to stay connected to what’s happening across our field—not just within my own organization or network. I want to be in the rooms where professionals are discussing industry challenges, innovation, AI, regulatory and compliance changes, study startup, workforce needs, and what’s next for clinical research. That’s one of the reasons I joined The League. Through working groups, industry roundtables, leadership salons, and conversations with other leaders, I have another opportunity to listen, learn, contribute, and bring new perspectives back to the communities I serve. Leadership isn’t about knowing everything. It’s about continuing to put yourself in spaces where you can learn, contribute, collaborate, and grow. Excited for what’s ahead with The League! 💜 #ClinicalResearch #ClinicalTrials #Leadership #ProfessionalDevelopment #ClinicalResearchIndustry #WomenInLeadership #IndustryLeadership

Blake Adams reacted on thisLook at Buster The Adjuster becoming a voice in the industry!Blake Adams reacted on this📣 Two-For-Friday Second Ep Drop is Live! 🎧 “If an adjuster’s thinking about metrics instead of serving the customer, don’t you think that the customer can feel that? They can feel that.” Buster The Adjuster spent years adjusting mixes before he ever adjusted a claim. Then one claim changed the entire course of his life. When a storm sent six feet of water into his basement studio, destroying recordings, equipment and keepsakes, the adjuster who showed up noticed something in Buster that he hadn’t seen in himself yet: a musician knows how to listen. Maybe that same ear belonged in claims. Buster’s initial response? “The insurance industry does not need a Buster.” Turns out, it absolutely did. In Episode 26, Buster joins The Salty Adjuster and Producer Brett McKenzie to talk about the claim-inspired path that led him from professional musician to claims adjuster, why policies are a lot like sheet music, what adjusters lose when their work becomes too focused on production metrics, and why the most complicated part of a claim is often the human being living through it. We also talk Earth, Wind & Fire, flooded guitars, call back to earlier season convos with Heather Blevins, Curtis Goldsborough, Michael Balarezo of Adjusto, and Arvind Sontha of Kyber; desert-island album picks; Dino from The Flintstones; important Dairy Queen endorsement discourse; and the beginnings of what we can only hope becomes the Buster/Salty brand partnership. Sometimes life changes the arrangement without asking permission. You just have to adjust accordingly. Please enjoy the conversation with the one and only Buster the Adjuster. https://lnkd.in/gXX4XqSyEarth, Wind, Fire & The People at the Heart of Adjusting: Buster the Adjuster on All of ItEarth, Wind, Fire & The People at the Heart of Adjusting: Buster the Adjuster on All of It

Blake Adams reacted on thisBlake Adams reacted on thisOver the 6+ years that I've been in Atlanta's startup/business ecosystem, I've been a witness to the intense hustle culture it takes to be a part of it. Atlanta Tech Week makes me so proud because of the disruption it causes to that culture. It's easy to be tunnel vision on what we can produce, how we can profit, and what we can procure. But weeks like this past one remind us that we are humans designed for curiosity, connectedness, and community. I'm so proud that we were able to facilitate a week where thousands (upon thousands!) of players in this ecosystem stepped away from the daily grind to practice being... human: to learn, to connect, to give back, to have fun and so much more! Here are some of my favorite (maybe less conventional) Atlanta Tech Week photos, but I wanted to share some of the behind the scenes of pulling this off with an incredible team and some amazing partners and supporters. Atlanta is such a special place existing in its own lane. I'm honored to be here and to get to be a part of this work!
