April 30, 2018—CCC Information Services announced the availability of AI-powered capabilities that use computer vision technology to detect vehicle damage.
The CCC heat map technology transforms vehicle photos into heat maps which provide a color-coded view of the damage. The maps work for every major vehicle brand and body type in the U.S.
Research cited by CCC shows that nine out of 10 consumers prefer estimates when delivered with heat maps that clearly highlight the damage versus estimates delivered without heat maps.
