Abstract
Systems, methods, apparatuses and computer-readable media for receiving data from one or more sensors associated with one or more home devices, such as appliances, home systems, etc. are provided. The data may be used to determine whether the home device is operating within an expected range or, if it is outside of an expected range or threshold, whether a home event has occurred. Upon occurrence of the home event, an insurance claim to cover any damage caused by the home event may be initiated and/or processed. In some examples, repair of any damage may also be coordinated by the system. In some arrangements, the initiation and/or processing of the claim, and/or coordination of the repair may be performed without any additional input from the user associated with the policy, home device, etc. or with limited additional input from the user.
