OEM shop locators have limitations.
An OEM locator focuses on its brand and its certification program. For a multi-certified shop, that means consumers may never see the full range of qualifications and capabilities you have earned.
Where the Decision Starts
The first 72 hours
The first 72 hours
will determine the future of collision repair.
The first 72 hours will shape how and where a vehicle is repaired. Assurity connects drivers with qualified Certified Repair Providers, putting your collision center where drivers are looking when it matters most.
The repair decision now starts with a search or a question to an AI assistant. Assurity puts your collision center where consumers are looking.
Where the Decision Starts
AI is already reshaping how consumers find collision repair answers.
A preliminary photo estimate gives consumers an early understanding of visible damage and possible repair costs. Assurity connects that first step with qualified Certified Collision Repair Providers, positioning your business in front of consumers while they are actively considering where to take their vehicle.
Be the qualified Certified Collision Repair Provider they find when they begin looking for answers.
From Certified to Chosen
Certification proves your capability. Assurity helps consumers find it.
The training, the equipment, the tooling, the manufacturer procedures. You have already invested in all of it to earn your OEM certifications. Assurity puts that in front of drivers while they are still choosing, so the work you did is part of the decision.
- Certified The investment is already made.
- Verified Your credentials hold up to a look.
- Visible Drivers searching can find you.
- Chosen The call comes to you.
You earned the qualifications. Now make sure consumers can find them.
The Information Gap
The paths consumers use today were not built around the best repair.
Insurance DRPs are not built around the best provider for the consumer.
Direct repair programs are structured around insurer requirements, operating standards, and network relationships. Not necessarily by which facility is the most qualified to perform the repair.
Assurity brings that information together in one consumer-facing experience, giving drivers a clearer picture of what qualifies your shop.
Where Assurity Comes In
We help the consumer make a better choice: a Certified Repair Provider.
As a consumer advocacy organization, Assurity works with the consumer to identify the best-qualified Certified Repair Provider in their market area.
Identify qualified shops
The Assurity smart locator is the one-stop shop for consumers to identify Certified Collision Repair Providers. More than OEM certified, Certified Repair Providers are independently validated, giving a full picture of the facility’s capabilities. The active locator connects consumers instead of simply listing shops.
Reach consumers earlier
Consumers want facts to make better decisions before involving their insurance carrier. The Instant Estimator provides a damage assessment when consumers first begin looking for repair answers and starts the education process.
Present the full scope of your qualifications
The Spotlight Page gets you noticed by consumers. Optimized for the new way consumers search for answers, it lets you tell your story and broadcast OEM certifications, credentials, equipment, and documented capabilities in one place.
A Consumer-Led Path to Repair
A consumer-driven, Assurity-powered direct repair program.
You invested the time, money, training, and resources to earn OEM certification. But certification alone doesn’t guarantee consumers will find you. Assurity is the missing link the industry never built. By informing and connecting with consumers at the very beginning of the claims and repair journey, Assurity creates the foundation for trust, visibility, and selection. Stop letting your certification sit on the wall. Put it to work and become the Certified Repair Provider consumers ultimately demand.
Certified. Visible. Easier to choose.
Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to the questions operators ask before joining the Assurity Repair Network.
I already have OEM certifications. Why do I need this?
Certification proves you made the investment. It does not guarantee the consumer finds or selects you. Assurity takes the certification you already earned and makes it visible, verifiable, and selectable at the moment the consumer is choosing a shop.
What happens in the first 72 hours, and why does it matter?
That is the window after an accident when the consumer decides who to trust with the car. Increasingly they want estimate information before they talk to an adjuster or a body shop. Assurity gives them an AI-generated preliminary estimate in that window and refers them to a Certified Repair Provider in their market.
How is this different from an OEM shop locator?
An OEM locator covers one brand and one certification program. Assurity presents the full range of a provider's qualifications, certifications, reputation, and capabilities, and actively refers the consumer rather than only listing shops.
How is this different from an insurance DRP?
Traditional insurer DRPs are shaped by carrier relationships, administrative requirements, cost considerations, and network agreements. Assurity is consumer-driven: the referral is based on which Certified Repair Provider is best qualified to perform an OEM-specification repair for that consumer.
How does the consumer actually reach my shop?
They photograph the damage and receive a preliminary AI estimate. The active locator surfaces the best-qualified Certified Repair Provider in their market, and the request arrives in your portal with the vehicle, photos, and preliminary estimate already attached.
Do you take a percentage of my repair orders?
No. One flat yearly price. We never touch your revenue and we never own your customer.
