Most AI-style tools work by asking you to describe:
- the type of collision (rear-end, merge, intersection, etc.)
- injury severity and treatment timeline
- medical costs and lost income
- sometimes—pain and suffering factors
Then the calculator outputs a range meant to mirror how insurers and adjusters often think about value.
In practice, however, a calculator can’t verify:
- whether the truck driver or trucking company will be held responsible under Texas standards
- whether your medical records clearly connect your symptoms to the crash
- whether comparative-fault arguments will reduce the offer
- whether key evidence (logs, maintenance records, dashcam/video) is available or missing
So treat the output as a planning tool, not a promise.
