**About Exadel**:
Since 1998 Exadel has been engineering its own software products and custom software for clients of all sizes. Headquartered in Walnut Creek, California, Exadel currently has 1000+ employees in development centers across America, Europe and Asia.

**About the Customer**:
The customer is an American company based in Chicago. It accelerates digital transformation for the insurance and automotive industries with AI, IoT and workflow solutions.

**About the Project**:
The Quick Estimate app, enables consumers to capture and submit photos and videos of their damaged vehicle, in a quick and efficient way. The insurance providers benefit from this self-service offering, since this enables them to get information from their customers in a rapid timeframe, in effect reducing the overall cycle time for a claim to be settled. Quick Estimate is the primary photo intake channel for all our CCC AI products and therefore allows carriers to extend the efficiency even further.

The project is a client mobile application. It has three versions: Android, iOS, and HTML5/JavaScript.

The apps are supported by multiple back-end components and require an understanding of overall web application architecture. It’s a blend of a traditional server-based application and individual microservices. Understanding of application security and performance is also crucial for supporting the back end.

This solution is powered by different AI-based APIs that process the client data provided via app. These APIs are running as microservices on a hyper-scale server, and an understanding of API gateway, Nginx, Load balancer, and Okta would be an added advantage.
