19Insurance Business ReviewSEPTEMBER 2025"Our job starts where the script ends," adds Landry. "When policyholders pick up the phone, they're often confused or stressed. That first call matters more than anyone thinks. We don't give them canned apologies--we offer clarity, set expectations and restore a sense of calm with a real conversation."That instinct--to meet tension with transparency--has defined how Driven Claims responds under pressure. When a national carrier flagged an uptick in suspicious claims across high-risk regions, the stakes were clear: costs were rising, fraud was spreading and traditional reviews were too slow to keep up. Rather than clamp down with red tape, Driven Claims introduced a smarter safeguard--real-time photo validation. Before any claims moved forward, policyholders submitted photos of the damage. Within minutes, claim representatives had visual confirmation to assess the claim and move with confidence. It was a small change with an outsized impact. Fraud dropped. Payout accuracy improved. The carrier regained control while improving the policyholder experience.Behind the scenes, Driven Claims continues to raise the bar. It works with a national network of vetted retail partners, ensuring services meet rigorous quality standards, without restricting policyholder choice. Meanwhile, invoices are reviewed in real time, scanned for irregularities in labor rates, parts pricing or vendor activity. Anything out of line gets flagged and addressed before it ever reaches the approval stage."Our goal is to deliver a smarter, more responsive platform that delivers exceptional service," says Kyle Marshall, EVP and CCO. "Being named TPA of the Year is a reflection of our team's dedication and the continued trust of Driven Brands."At the core of Driven Claims' success is a team that knows this industry inside out. These professionals have spent years on both sides of the glass--managing claims, coordinating glass services and working directly with policyholders. It's why the technology feels intuitive, the process feels considered and the outcomes reflect something more human. Because when expertise, transparency and empathy are built into the foundation, the result isn't just a better claims system. It's a better experience for everyone involved."For decades, Driven Brands has been a trusted partner to both clients and carriers across the insurance industry. Backed by our strong foundation and deep industry experience, we remain committed to delivering exceptional service and strengthening the relationships that have fueled our success.
