AI-based data analysis, along with advanced images produced by computer vision systems, can thus help insurers build a better relationship with customers and provide more accurate results for everyone involved. Advanced technologies can help build a trusting relationship with customers by helping them offer coverage and set premiums that customers can afford or evaluate payments after incidents. With advanced technology, insurers can protect their interests while making their customers happier – a win-win for both sides
The book value of a used vehicle is only a starting point; to establish a potential retail price, one needs to assess the actual physical condition.
