What you get access to
All sourced from real market data. Not generated, not estimated, not guessed.
Vehicle Databases
Comprehensive repair cost data per vehicle: common repairs, parts costs (OEM and aftermarket), labor hours, paint costs, ADAS calibration requirements.
Honda Civic, Toyota Camry, Tesla Model 3, Ford F-150, BMW 3 Series, and 34 more.
State Labor Rates
Body labor, paint labor, mechanical labor, and frame/structural rates per state. Surveyed from 4,000+ shops. National averages and rankings included.
All 50 states + DC. Updated from real shop surveys.
Damage Types
Cost ranges by damage type across vehicles. Severity levels, repair methods, typical labor hours, and ADAS calibration flags.
Bumper, fender, door, hood, windshield, scratch, dent, and more.
No other self-service repair cost API exists.
Enterprise players
CCC, Mitchell, and Tractable have repair data. But their entry point is "contact sales" with 3-6 month onboarding cycles and enterprise contracts. No developer can sign up and start building today.
Detection-only APIs
Inspektlabs, Arya.ai, and SensorAI detect damage -- they tell you "this is a dent." They don't estimate what it costs to fix. Detection is half the problem. Estimation is the other half.
RepairSnap gives you both: AI damage detection AND itemized cost estimation with real market data. One API.
API Pricing

What developers are building
Insurance claim triage
Auto-classify damage severity and estimate repair cost from claim photos. Route high-cost claims to adjusters, auto-approve low-cost ones.
Fleet management dashboards
Track damage across a fleet. Estimate repair backlog costs. Prioritize repairs by cost and severity.
Used car pricing tools
Factor repair costs into vehicle valuations. Show buyers exactly what damage repairs will cost on a specific listing.
Body shop software
Embed repair estimation into your shop management platform. Give your customers instant ballpark estimates before they walk in.
