Mitchell<\/a>, a leading provider of technology, connectivity and information solutions to the Property & Casualty (P&C) claims and Collision Repair Industries. This allows North American automotive insurers to produce collision repair estimates automatically from photos.<\/p>\nTractable\u2019s AI acts as a human appraiser, using proprietary computer vision to examine photos of vehicle damage and return a list of part-level repair operations seconds after photos are submitted. When combined with Mitchell\u2019s collision repair data, the result is a repair estimate \u2013 produced in seconds from anyone\u2019s smartphone \u2013 which a repairer can start to work from and upon which claims can be settled.<\/p>\n
By employing this technology across the auto insurance claims journey \u2013 from understanding damage at first notice of loss (FNOL) to performing repairs \u2013 multiple days and manual touchpoints can be cut out from the accident recovery process. For the driver, the result is a simpler experience that instead of taking days or weeks can take minutes to complete on their phone.<\/p>\n
