A better way to identify
vehicle damage opportunities.

Estimatics fits how your store already works. Your phones. Your people. No new hardware, no new workflow — just more documented opportunities.

01

General overview

Advanced Estimatics™ is the company. Estimatics is the AI platform. Two products run on it — AE-Pro and TIPP™ — for dealerships, body shops, and repair facilities. No workflow changes.

What is Advanced Estimatics™?+

An AI company. We build Estimatics, the platform powering AE-Pro (cosmetic estimating) and TIPP™ (Trade-In Protection Plus for F&I).

What problem does it solve?+

Inconsistent inspections cost dealers missed repairs, weak documentation, and lost revenue. Estimatics creates a repeatable process across the store.

How does it work?+

Snap a few photos on any phone or tablet. The platform identifies damage and returns a priced estimate.

How long does an estimate take?+

Under a minute. Fits the normal walk-around or write-up.

Who should use it?+

Service advisors and managers, fixed-ops leaders, used-vehicle managers, appraisers, body shop, GMs, dealer principals, and group leadership.

Does it replace our advisors or estimators?+

No. It gives them a faster, more consistent process. Humans still own the customer conversation.

What kinds of damage can it estimate?+

Cosmetic, dents, scratches, wheels, paint, bumpers, hail and weather, collision, and reconditioning damage.

02

Process integration & adoption

Will it change our existing processes?+

No. It enhances what you already do — write-ups, appraisals, lease returns, reconditioning, body shop referrals.

Where should it be used?+

Service lanes, multi-point inspections, lease returns, trade appraisals, used acquisition, reconditioning, body shop referrals, and hail/weather assessments.

How does it improve ROI without disrupting operations?+

It surfaces opportunities on the vehicles you already touch every day — faster identification, better documentation.

03

Service lane & customer experience

Can it be used during service write-up?+

Yes — commonly used at check-in while the customer is still engaged.

Will it slow down the service lane?+

No. It fits the existing walk-around.

How does it help advisors present repairs?+

Visual documentation and a clear estimate — so advisors communicate transparently.

What should advisors say?+

"We spotted some damage and generated an estimate for your review."

What if the customer declines?+

The estimate is documented for future follow-up.

Can we follow up later?+

Yes — declined estimates become future retention and marketing campaigns.

04

Used vehicles, lease returns & reconditioning

Can it be used for trade-ins?+

Yes. Identifies damage that impacts trade value and reconditioning cost.

Can it be used for lease returns?+

Yes — one of the strongest use cases. Documents damage before grounding.

Can it help our used car department?+

Yes — appraisal, acquisition, inspections, and reconditioning.

Can it help our reconditioning process?+

Yes. Early identification means better planning and fewer surprises.

How does it protect used-vehicle margins?+

Reconditioning costs are known before acquisition or resale.

05

Body shop & repair opportunities

Can it generate more body shop opportunities?+

Yes — collision, accident, hail, cosmetic, and reconditioning work identified across the store.

Do we need an in-house body shop?+

No. Dealers without a shop can work with preferred repair partners.

What if we already have one?+

More referrals, more estimate volume into your collision center.

06

Technology & security

Do customers have to download anything?+

No.

Can multiple advisors use it?+

Yes — across departments and locations.

Does it work across multiple rooftops?+

Yes. Performance is managed and monitored per rooftop.

Does it work for dealer groups?+

Yes — standardized processes, reporting, and training across locations.

Is data protected?+

Yes. Industry-standard security across the platform.

Do we need new hardware?+

No. Existing phones and tablets. No capex.

07

Executive questions

What's the average revenue opportunity?+

Varies by volume and adoption. Most dealers find repair opportunities they were never presenting.

How quickly do we see ROI?+

Opportunities surface immediately. Measurable results within the first few months.

How do managers monitor adoption?+

Reporting covers inspections, estimates, advisor activity, and opportunities identified.

Can groups compare rooftops?+

Yes — across adoption, activity, and revenue.

What KPIs should leadership focus on?+

Vehicles inspected · estimates · approval rate · additional repair revenue · advisor adoption · revenue per inspection · declined opportunities · reconditioning savings.

Why implement now?+

Every day without a consistent process is missed revenue. Estimatics drops into your existing operation.
