Artur Arakelian

Body shop owner turned SaaS founder. Owned and operated collision repair shops in Van Nuys, Beverly Hills, Thousand Oaks, and Chatsworth, CA before building Claimory: claims management software for the industry I came from.

Self-funded. Revenue-led. Building in public for the body shop owners and managers I worked alongside for years.

I was the customer before I was the founder. Every feature in Claimory comes from a real shop pain.

Currently hiring sales, talking to shops, and shipping AI features that actually work in collision claims.


Currently Building

  1. Claimory Collision Shop Operating System

    Collision shop management software built for body shops, not general auto repair. Tracks every insurance claim from first call to final payment, manages supplements with per-carrier aging, drafts adjuster emails with AI, and coordinates the team on one timeline. Works alongside CCC ONE, Mitchell, and Audatex. Imports estimate XML in one click and runs the lifecycle on top: supplements, customer portal, AI claim review, cycle time, payment. Built by a former body shop owner. Self-funded. Founded January 2025 in LA.

    2025 — present
