More tools inside ProAudit
Two tools for money that tends to slip away. Paint materials, and the work your shop already did on a vehicle that totals.
Your estimate. Your color. A documented result.
Pick an audit and confirm the paint code. ProAudit compares what the estimate allows for paint materials with a complexity-adjusted calculation for that exact color, then issues a certificate with every figure sourced.
- A locked formula the shop can't adjust, so the number holds up with the adjuster.
- When the allowance already covers the color, the certificate says so. When it doesn't, it shows the shortage and why.
- Flags refinish labor operations the estimate may have left out.
- Paint and color lookup for factory codes, finishes and stage counts.
Get paid for the work already done on a totaled vehicle.
When a car totals, your shop has often already towed it, torn it down, inspected it and stored it. Total Loss Recovery prices that work from your rate cards, shows the math, and issues an insurer-ready invoice with the claim details and custody dates an adjuster needs to pay without a callback.
- Rate cards for each location.
- A custody record behind every storage day billed.
- Charges freeze when the invoice is issued, so the adjuster sees one final number.

Recover after closeProRecovery
Closed repair orders may still contain legitimate revenue.
- Reviews closed ROs for missed labor, parts, materials, OEM procedures, ADAS and documentation.
- Validates what's supportable, prepares and submits it, then follows up and reconciles.
- Priced as a share of what's recovered.
Ask about a review of suitable closed files.
See how ProRecovery works
The loop closes. What ProRecovery finds in closed files feeds back into ProAudit's rules and your estimators' coaching, so the next estimate starts stronger.
CARS CASHBACK applies to ProAudit subscriptions. ProEstimate and ProRecovery are quoted separately. Recovery depends on the individual file, its documentation and the payment outcome.
ProEstimate: experienced estimating support
Your estimating capacity should move with your business.
ProEstimate extends your team with experienced virtual estimators who work inside your own estimating system. Whether you're covering a vacancy, clearing a supplement backlog or managing uneven claim volume, the estimating work keeps moving.
- Cover vacations, leave and turnover.
- Add support during growth or workload spikes.
- Clear supplement and documentation backlogs.
- Get experienced help when volume doesn't justify another full-time hire.
- Keep estimating practices consistent across locations.
A clear working relationship. Your team supplies the photos, claim information, repair details and local requirements. ProEstimate handles the agreed estimating work, communicates about open items and hands back a clear closeout.
ProRecovery: legitimate revenue still in closed files
A closed repair order deserves a complete review.
ProRecovery reviews already-closed repair orders for legitimate missed revenue: labor, parts, materials, OEM procedures, ADAS and calibration requirements, and documentation gaps. Each potential item is validated against the file before anything goes to the insurer.
- Review the closed-file package and payment history.
- Validate that each potential item applies and is supported.
- Prepare the supporting documents and supplement request.
- Submit it, answer questions and manage the follow-up.
- Reconcile recovered amounts and the agreed revenue share.
Learn from the pattern. One miss is worth fixing. A repeated miss points to a process change, and the findings can inform estimator coaching and your ProAudit rule settings, so the next file starts stronger.
Recovery depends on the individual file, its documentation and the payment outcome. Finding an item doesn't guarantee additional payment. ProEstimate and ProRecovery are quoted separately and aren't part of the CARS CASHBACK program.
