It is designed so that if you do suffer a loss, it will get you back up and running as quickly as possible. ARMD lets you quickly record, protect, insure, and replace your tools, either on the website or easy to use app.
“We listened to and developed ARMD with the trade, to tackle the many different pain points they experience when trying to protect themselves and their tools,” said Stephen Holland, ARMD’s co-founder. “We are proud that our products keep the trade working – they’re the backbone of our country and no one should be left out of work because of tool theft.”
The ARMD platform gives the trade four ways to protect their business. Firstly, a free Tool Inventory lets you easily record your tools in one place. This is useful for audits, accounting, and claiming insurance.
A second, crucial, protection is fit for purpose tool insurance. If you suffer a loss, ARMD is there to help you get sorted and back to business quickly. The policy is dedicated to tool insurance, so you do not have to take your tools out of your van at night, which other policies may require you to do. Plus, you can claim digitally once your tools are in the inventory, saving hassle and time.
ARMD also gives you access to smart anti-theft security products for your van, protecting your tools with a range of powerful locks, alarms, and even smart sensors that automatically call you when someone tries to break in.
Finally, there is the ARMD tool shop. Here you can choose from over 30,000 tools from leading brands and at checkout you can quickly and easily insure your tools so you are protected from the outset. Tools bought or replaced through the tool shop are automatically added to your tool inventory so that you do not need to manually upload them.
“Put together, ARMD completes the loop – record, protect, insure, and replace, providing tradespeople with a practical way to prevent and recover from tool theft,” says Holland. “Our first claim was approved in just under 72 hours, keeping a livelihood intact and the hassle to a minimum. That’s the difference ARMD can make.”
