What Innovation Group Australia does

Innovation Group Australia, operating commercially as Solvd Australia, is a Melbourne-based B2B provider of technology-enabled motor claims and repair management services, founded in 1999 and now a subsidiary of Solvd GmbH, a privately-held German parent group. The company serves insurers, commercial fleet operators, and automotive repair and parts partners across Australia with a modular platform that orchestrates the four stages of motor claims — intake, damage assessment, repair coordination, and settlement — either as a full end-to-end outsourced workflow or via individual product modules selected by the customer.

The underlying technology combines proprietary AI capabilities including automated image recognition for vehicle damage assessment, large language models for document analysis and customer communication, AI-based fraud detection via pattern and anomaly analysis, deep learning and telematics analytics for predictive loss adjustment, and process automation across the claims chain. The company reports more than 150 AI-supported processes and products in production and cites an extensive historical claims dataset as the foundation for its automated loss adjustment and fraud prevention models. Internal research teams and partnerships with leading universities support ongoing development in deep learning, image recognition, and telematics.

Revenue is generated through subscription or recurring service fees combined with per-transaction processing charges for claims handling, damage assessment, and repair management, delivered via direct enterprise sales ([email protected]) to insurers, fleets, and automotive partners. The Australian entity operates within the broader Solvd ecosystem alongside two sister companies, ControlExpert and GT Motive, which together target a unified vision of end-to-end claims and repair management across European, Australian, and global markets.
