How It Works

From accident to repair in three steps

No insurance steering. No guessing. Just a clear path from damage to done.

Step 01

Send your damage photos

Snap photos from your driveway. Add your year, make, and model. Tell us if the car is driveable and whether you're filing a claim — takes about 90 seconds.

Step 02

Get your $4.99 report in 60 seconds

For one $4.99 payment, get a preliminary cost breakdown covering parts, labor, and paint before you contact a shop.

Step 03

Pick the right shop with confidence

See every top-rated collision repair shop near you that handles your damage type. Compare real reviews. Contact directly — no insurance steering, no middlemen.

One report · $4.99 · No subscription

Know the likely repair cost before you choose a shop

Upload damage photos for a preliminary repair report, emailed to you 3–10 minutes after you submit your photos and complete payment. Submit your request and we'll contact your selected shop for you.

Independent report by AutoEstimatePro

Photo-based body damage estimate

$4.99 per report

Get your preliminary estimate by email within 3–10 minutes after submitting your photos and completing payment.

  • Preliminary report, not your selected shop's quote or a shop estimate. No affiliation with or endorsement by the shop.
  • Covers visible body damage only, not mechanical diagnosis. Hidden damage may be missed; final pricing requires inspection.
  • Submit once and our team contacts your selected shop on your behalf.

The shop has not produced, authorized, reviewed, approved, or endorsed this report, or agreed to its findings. It is not a repair authorization, safety determination, or insurance decision. Inspection and teardown can change scope and price.

We contact your selected shop after you submit through AutoEstimatePro, and ask for separate permission before sharing with another shop. A response or appointment isn't guaranteed.

Why AutoRepairEstimate.ai

An independent directory that helps you compare shops

Compare business information and Google ratings, then choose your own repair facility. Paid Pro listings receive featured placement, which is not an endorsement or a guarantee of repair quality.

You choose. Not your insurer.

Browse an independent directory and choose your own repair facility. Shops can purchase Pro placement; a paid listing is not an endorsement of a shop or its work.

Know the cost before you call.

Get a preliminary parts-and-labor estimate before contacting a shop. A repair facility still needs to inspect the vehicle to confirm the scope and price.

Reviews you can actually trust.

Compare real customer reviews on shops near you. Top Rated shops hold a 4.8+ star average — not curated testimonials hand-picked by the shop.

Understand possible additional damage.

The report may flag inferred damage for discussion with a repair facility. Photos cannot reveal every issue; inspection or teardown can uncover damage and change the final cost.
