Instappraise Announces New Diamond Grading Certificate Database Integration with GCAL

(PRESS RELEASE) CALGARY, ALBERTA — Fast-growing technology startup Instappraise — developer of the innovative and easy-to-use jewelry appraisal creation and management solution — announces a new partnership with GCAL (Gem Certification & Assurance Lab). Thanks to this latest collaboration, the platform now seamlessly integrates with GCAL’s Diamond Grading Certificate Database.

Jewelry professionals who work with GCAL already know the organization for its well-regarded reputation within the appraisal and retail jewelry space. As part of its comprehensive roster of services, GCAL issues diamond Grading Certificates, guaranteeing its 4C’s grading in writing. Instappraise aligns with GCAL’s values of uncompromising integrity and unparalleled customer care.

Now, the power of GCAL’s Diamond Grading Certificate Database is directly integrated into the jewelry appraisal creation process, allowing the user to search for any GCAL Certificate number and immediately gain access to all pertinent information from GCAL’s proprietary database. Best of all, Instappraise makes this step a seamless part of the appraisal creation workflow through automation. With this powerful new integration, jewelry professionals can confirm that an item matches the information from its GCAL Certificate and then easily add that information to the appraisal. This solution minimizes clicks and greatly reduces the amount of data entry required on the appraisal document.

Don Palmieri, GCAL Founder and President says: 

“2021 has been a year of major announcements by GCAL (Gem Certification & Assurance Lab), and now we’re pleased to add Instappraise to the list of new and invaluable relationships that are all aimed at benefiting the industry, especially our retail customers.”

“Both our companies are focused on providing the industry and consumers with an efficient digital experience,” added Angelo Palmieri, GCAL COO. “And because GCAL is renowned the world over for our grading accuracy, consistency and ethics, as well as being the only gem lab in the world to stand behind our grading with a zero-tolerance consumer guarantee, the fit is truly synergistic.”

For all your grading report needs, you can explore GCAL’s services, including grading for natural and lab grown loose diamonds and finished diamond jewelry, colored gemstones, and more. To learn more about their wide range of offerings, visit www.gcalusa.com.

Four Decades of Excellence: How Wilkerson Transformed a Jeweler's Retirement into Celebration

After 45 years serving the Milwaukee community, Treiber & Straub Jewelers owner Michael Straub faced a significant life transition. At 75, the veteran jeweler made a personal decision many business owners understand: "I think it's time. I want to enjoy my wife with my grandchildren for the next 10, 15 years." Wilkerson's expertise transformed this major business transition into an extraordinary success. Their comprehensive approach to managing the going-out-of-business sale created unprecedented customer response—with lines forming outside the store and limits on how many shoppers could enter at once due to fire safety regulations. The results exceeded all expectations. "Wilkerson did a phenomenal job," Straub enthuses. "They were there for you through the whole thing, helped you with promoting it, helping you on day-to-day business. I can't speak enough for how well they did." The partnership didn't just facilitate a business closing; it created a celebratory finale to decades of service while allowing Straub to confidently step into his well-earned retirement.
