  • Publication number: 20230177616
    Abstract: A system and method for processing an insurance claim for damage to a vehicle, home, or other property. Image data of the damaged property may be examined, with an insured's permission or affirmative consent, by a processor using a machine learning technology to determine the amount of damage; determine a repair or replacement cost; generate a proposed insurance claim and initiate processing the insurance claim; and perform additional actions relevant to handling the insurance claim or assisting the claimant. The additional actions may include estimating a repair or replacement cost and time; identifying a repair service; determining an availability of repair parts and appointments; identifying one or more salvage services; identifying settlement options; and identifying temporary replacement property (e.g., rental vehicles or hotel rooms). The processor may receive and account for GPS location of the damaged property or the insured's mobile device, and/or the forecasted weather for that location.
