The shop
Built in a shop, against its own repair orders
This was not built by a software company that interviewed some body shops. It was built in one, against the cars that came through it, by someone who had to live with every number it produced.
The test was always a closed repair order
Every version was run against jobs that had already been written, already been argued with a carrier, and already been paid. That is a harsh test and it is the only one that means anything. A demo on a photograph chosen by the vendor proves nothing at all.
What is measured, and how to check it
Tested in public against Progressive’s own estimates of record: from photographs alone it landed within 1.2% on a 2023 Nissan Versa and 3.4% on a 2019 Nissan Rogue Sport, and all 13 cars are published at /measured/accuracy. Carrier labor rates are published with the document count behind every figure, 232 parsed estimates across 14 insurers. Individual jobs are published as cases with the carrier’s own ledger printed beside ours, so the arithmetic can be added up by hand.
Test it on a job you already know the answer to
It is free to start, four estimates a month, and takes about a minute, with no card and no invite code. Bring your own photographs and a repair order you have already closed, and run it against a job whose real answer you already know. That is a harder test than any demo, and it is the one worth running.
One operation, under two names
Corsa Automotive is the shop in Orlando: the bays, the estimators, the repair orders every version of this was tested against. Corsa Media House is the same operation writing the software. Not a vendor that was hired, not an agency that was briefed, and not a separate company that interviewed the shop. The people who wrote the code are the people who have to answer to the customer standing at the counter when the number is wrong.
Why that distinction is worth making at all
Because almost every tool sold into this trade was built the other way round, by a software company that ran discovery calls with shops and shipped what it heard. That process produces a product that demonstrates well and argues badly, because nobody involved has ever had to defend one of its numbers to an adjuster. The difference shows up in what a tool refuses to claim.
Before you ask
Is this used in a real shop?
Daily, in the shop it was built in, on collision and mechanical work including exotic and European vehicles.
Who actually owns and runs this?
Corsa Media House, the software side of Corsa Automotive in Orlando, Florida. Same people, same building, one operation. There is no outside development shop and no third party holding the code.
What happens to our photographs and estimates?
They stay attached to your account so an estimate can be re-run on the same shoot. They are not published, sold, or used as examples. The measured aggregates on this site contain no line from any individual claim.
Run it on damage you have already written
It is free to start: four estimates a month, with no card and no invite code. Bring your own photographs and a repair order you have already closed, so you can see how close it lands before you decide.
