Sydney, Australia – Oct 16, 2024 – Panel, an innovative AI-powered damage assessment platform, is transforming the automotive repair industry by streamlining workflows and giving repair shops control over their operations. Designed to connect repair shops directly with consumers, Panel eliminates insurance bottlenecks, enabling faster, more profitable repairs. The platform is live at www.paneltec.ai and is actively pursuing partnerships with leading repair networks, including CarCraft.

The Panel leadership team brings a wealth of experience across sales, operations, and the automotive industry, ensuring the platform is built with both technology and practicality in mind. Cole Rudlin leads go-to-market strategy and sales development, leveraging years of experience in building and scaling sales teams to drive business growth. Jody Rudlin oversees sales operations, focusing on optimizing processes and delivering data-driven insights to enhance shop performance. Aaron Robinson, with his deep knowledge of the automotive industry, manages partnerships and operations, ensuring Panel meets the needs of repairers and scales effectively. Cody Anderson drives product design strategy and usability, creating a seamless experience for both repair shops and consumers.

Panel addresses the frustrations many repair shops experience, from delayed insurance approvals to unpaid labor on free quotes. These bottlenecks lead to inefficiencies and reduce profitability. Panel’s solution is simple yet powerful: it automates damage assessments using AI, connects consumers directly with repair shops, and bypasses the lengthy insurance process. This empowers repair shops to streamline operations and focus on repairs, not paperwork.

The process is straightforward: consumers upload photos of their vehicle damage through the Panel app, and AI technology processes the images to generate an accurate estimate within minutes. Consumers can then select a repair shop from the Panel network and get started without the usual delays. This direct connection fosters better customer relationships and reduces the time spent on administrative tasks. Repairers also benefit from the ability to engage with customers through the app, building trust and encouraging repeat business.

“Our goal is to outsmart the insurance system and empower repair shops with tools that let them run their businesses efficiently and profitably,” said Cole Rudlin. “Panel bridges the gap between customers and repairers, ensuring faster turnaround times and better outcomes for everyone involved.”

Panel offers repair shops a competitive advantage by standardizing pricing, making processes more efficient, and freeing up time to focus on customer satisfaction. With a subscription fee of $400 per month per shop, Panel provides an affordable, scalable solution for multi-location operators, franchises, and independent shops alike. The platform is actively working with CarCraft to onboard shops across Australia and expand its reach.

“We want every repair shop to regain autonomy and thrive in this new landscape,” said Aaron Robinson. “Panel provides the technology and tools they need to stand out in a competitive market.”

Panel is not just about technology—it’s about creating lasting change in the automotive repair industry. By giving repairers control over their operations and the ability to connect directly with consumers, Panel ensures that shops no longer have to rely on insurance companies for work. The platform is designed to help repairers provide better service while increasing profitability.
