Two diagnostic repair providers are coming together despite years of courtroom conflict.
Repairify and Opus IVS have completed their planned merger, combining their automotive diagnostics businesses under one operating structure. The combined business includes asTech, Opus IVS and BlueDriver. It will be led by Brian Herron, chief executive officer of Opus IVS.
Repairify is a Texan provider of remote diagnostics, calibration support, programming and repair planning tools. Opus IVS is a Michigan provider of diagnostic hardware, programming tools and live repair support for collision and mechanical repair facilities.
In January, the businesses first outlined plans to bring together their diagnostics operations while continuing to support existing products and customers.
Srisu Subrahmanyam, chief executive officer of Repairify, said the merger combines Repairify’s remote diagnostic services with Opus IVS’s hardware and software tools.
“Together, we can accelerate the development of next-generation diagnostic and repair technologies while delivering even greater value, support, and expertise to our customers,” Subrahmanyam said.
He said the combined business is intended to support repairers as vehicle systems become more complex.
“As vehicles become increasingly complex and the ADAS landscape continues to evolve, our combined organization is uniquely positioned to help repair professionals navigate these changes with confidence and stay ahead of the industry’s future,” Subrahmanyam said.
Herron said the closing is an important step for both businesses.
“Today is an important milestone for our two companies’ growth journeys,” Herron said. “By bringing together our teams, technologies, and expertise, we are strengthening our ability to serve customers with even greater innovation, reliability, and value.”
The merger comes as collision repair facilities are handling more vehicles with advanced driver assistance systems, cameras, sensors and software-linked components. Those systems can require pre-repair scanning, post-repair scanning, calibration, programming and documentation.
The combined business brings together several diagnostics brands already used in the repair market. asTech is known for remote scanning, OEM-compatible diagnostics and calibration support. BlueDriver adds a consumer and mechanical diagnostics tool. Opus IVS brings diagnostic hardware, technician support and programming systems used by repair facilities.
The merger also follows a period of legal disputes in which both organizations were at loggerheads.
In 2024, a Texas appeals court upheld the dismissal of Repairify’s tortious interference case against Opus IVS. The case involved the hiring of a former Repairify employee.
Repairify also settled a separate patent dispute with Elitek, an LKQ subsidiary, in 2025. That case involved remote diagnostic tool technology.
Opus IVS was also involved in a contract and unfair competition dispute with AirPro Diagnostics. In September 2025, a U.S. district judge dismissed AirPro’s claims against Opus IVS and related defendants. The judge also dismissed Opus IVS’s counterclaims with prejudice.
The completed merger places asTech, Opus IVS and BlueDriver under shared leadership. The release did not list changes to product names, customer contacts or shop support procedures.
