About

Rote handles the entire negotiation lifecycle between shops and insurance companies to help them recover thousands of dollars in denied claims. Shops today lose millions per year because they lack the resources to negotiate with insurance companies that undervalue repair costs. Rote's agents recover denied revenue by taking shop estimates and referencing technical repair data to autonomously file and defend shop claims.
