CCC's durable business model allowed for both margin expansion and investments in innovation that position the company for future growth. The company made significant progress in strengthening its network with several key renewals and new customer additions, including over 1,000 new collision repair facilities onboarding to its platform and growing its industry-leading partner ecosystem to more than 200 active technology and service providers.
The leadership in product innovation and AI also continued to advance with the launch of several new solutions as well as the IX Cloud event-based architecture. The company's AI is now in production at over 100 insurers and more than 10,000 collision repairs. CCC further accelerated its growth through the acquisition of EvolutionIQ, expanding its addressable markets into disability and workers' compensation while also deepening and strengthening its AI and casualty capabilities.
As the company looks to 2025 and beyond, it remains excited about numerous growth opportunities ahead. The first topic is the conviction in the digitization of the insurance economy and the transformational impact that CCC believes it will have on the industry. Githesh Ramamurthy, Chairman and CEO, emphasized that clients face significant operational challenges as complexity rises, including vehicle technology, labor shortages and skill gaps, medical treatments, natural disasters, data proliferation, changing regulations, and more.
The second topic is the real-world results customers are seeing from CCC's most recent innovations. The company took this a step further through its acquisition of EvolutionIQ, expanding its addressable markets into disability and workers' compensation while also deepening and strengthening its AI and casualty capabilities. As we look to 2025 and beyond, the actions taken by CCC will accelerate their customers' journey along this transformation which they believe will also accelerate CCC's growth.
