The software allows dealers to mark damage directly onto images and damage types are selected from a drop down menu. Digital appraisals can be sent to dealer contacts for repair estimates, including audio descriptions and pictures or videos.

These features allow for a car to be appraised in one location and valued in another.

Chris Harris, marketing and customer director for H.R. Owen, said: "Our pilot showed that AUTOi saved us time, increased the accuracy of appraisals and generated high quality management information, which is why we’re now rolling out across the Group."
