AirPro and Revv to merge hardware and software platforms

Rotunda Capital Partners has acquired Revv with plans to merge it with its portfolio company, AirPro Diagnostics, to provide an end-to-end ADAS platform that builds on both companies’ strengths. 

The nine-figure acquisition will bring repair hardware and software under one roof for the first time, a press announcement on the merger states. 

AirPro brings expertise in diagnostics and calibration execution with a platform that processes more than 1 million vehicles annually, the release states. 

Revv’s software and AI infrastructure platform runs in 6,100-plus shops and manages ADAS workflow, including identifying required calibrations and accessing OEM procedures to document and validate completed work and support insurer reimbursement, the release states. 

Technology required to complete ADAS work remains fragmented across separate systems, tools, and providers, a press release on the merger states. It adds that the merger of AirPro and Revv addresses the gap. 

Revv’s CEO Adi Bathla will transition into president and CIO of the combined company, and Driaan du Toit will stay on as CEO. Bathla also will join the board.

“The two companies are very much complementary,” du Toit told Repairer Driven News. “There’s very little overlap between what we do, and putting them together provides a complementary opportunity for us to deliver a full stack, end-to-end execution and workflow platform, which services every level of the collision industry.”

Bathla added during the RDN interview that the car parc is becoming more complicated and repair shops are struggling to decide the best way to perform repairs.

“There’s so many headwinds that they’re facing — technician shortages, a plethora of tools and solutions out there, so much noise,” Bathla said. “There’s a need in the industry where the platform, software, back office, and the operational capabilities are combined with actual execution capabilities.” 

This has been the core ethos of the two businesses coming together, he said. He added that the merger provides a “seamless solution that does both orchestration and execution to help shops bring ADAS calibration capabilities in-house with as little friction as possible.”

Du Toit and Bathla said both companies plan to keep a focus on OEM procedures, as they each have done in the past. 

“The intention is to get every car repaired according to OEM standards and to use the appropriate software and tools to make sure that happens,” du Toit said.

Bathla added that Revv’s ethos since day zero has been focused on OEM standards. 

“Lately, we’ve been working with some OEMs much more intimately,” Bathla said. “With the two companies coming together, I believe we only aim to amplify that.”

Both companies have data sets for OEM requirements which can be compounded, he said. 

Last month, Repairify and Opus IVS combined their automotive diagnostic business. 

When asked about consolidations in the ADAS sector, du Toit said they will likely continue in every sector within the motor vehicle repair and insurance claims technology and services industries. 

He added that the AirPro and Revv merger gives the companies the ability to deliver value to the market that currently doesn’t exist. 

AirPro also brings strength on the technician side, with 200-plus technicians trained and located in the U.S. and 20 years of experience, he said. 

“At the end of the day, with this merger we really now have solutions that will service all ends of the market — large MSOs, mid-markets, as well as the independent levels,” he added. 

 The plan is to merge into one brand, du Toit said when asked. 

“We are going to provide one end-to-end platform, and that makes sense,” he said. 

Revv’s platform will remain open and tool-agnostic following the brand merger, Bathla said. This means other tools and providers can be integrated. 

The new brand’s name hasn’t been decided, but it is the next step for the companies, he said. 

“These two companies both have a very good reputation in the industry for delivering a lot of value to our customers,” du Toit said. “We will keep that ethos and make sure that does not go away by changing the brand to whatever it is going to be. It is early days.” 

Bathla co-founded Revv in 2022. He also founded the United ADAS Collective, the first professional organization for the ADAS calibration community, which has grown to more than 1,600 members in under a year. The collective is now a part of the combined company. 

Rashmi Sinhi, Revv’s co-founder and chief technology officer, will serve as senior vice president of technology and product integration of the combined company. 

Ryan Aprill, partner at Rotunda Capital Partners, said in the release that ADAS has moved from the periphery of automotive repair to the center of it, with each new model year adding ADAS complexity and repairs that require calibrations growing exponentially. 

“This structural demand was our thesis when we partnered with AirPro in 2025, and it has only strengthened since,” Aprill said. “Driaan, Adi, and their teams have built two of the strongest and most reputable businesses in the category, and we look forward to supporting their shared growth vision.”
