“The formation of AudaExplore enables us to combine the vehicle and claims data from Audatex with the underwriting expertise, analytics skills and location-based risk information from Explore.

The creation of AudaExplore will enable the organization to more completely serve the growing needs of its customers. Combining the deep talents of its product development and data analytics teams enables AudaExplore to form an even stronger, more diverse innovation team. The team will focus on bringing the proven predictive modeling, analytics capabilities and location data of Explore to develop predictive insurance claims solutions, as well as new underwriting solutions that utilize vehicle and claims data. In addition, uniting its information technology and insurance sales groups creates a more tightly integrated, world-class organization capable of optimally serving customers’ claims, repair and underwriting needs.
Founded in 1989, Explore has grown steadily over the past 24 years, serving the insurance industry and state government agencies. Explore's insurance solutions allow underwriters to identify risk exposure, while its government solutions enable state agencies to be more efficient and more responsive to their constituents. In June of 2011, Solera completed the acquisition of Explore, and Explore has successfully been working with Audatex U.S. for the past 20 months.
Audatex provides intelligent solutions and services that improve the efficiency of the automotive claims processing and collision repair workflows. In the fall of 2012, Audatex announced the North American debut of AudaNet™, its intelligent, next-generation claims and collision repair platform.
