An estimate no longer needs to be written from scratch. The Mitchell Intelligent Estimating solution is designed to predict and pre-populate all possible portions of an estimate. It also allows appraisers to further complete, review and/or approve a pre-written estimate.

Photos can be received from a multitude of sources—from carrier mobile apps to repair facility photo capture tools—analyzed through Mitchell's own Vehicle Damage Detection API, then processed via Mitchell's proprietary Intelligent Translation service. Mitchell's advanced machine learning leverages Google expertise in computer vision, as well as the processing power, security and reliability of Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
