Built by people who've seen both sides of the problem.
Trinity didn't start with a whitepaper. It started with 30 years inside the industry — working at repair shops, earning OEM certifications, and then sitting across the table as an insurance re-inspector. That vantage point changed everything.
“I watched insurers push to pay as little as possible, and shops cut corners to survive. The only person who ever lost in that equation was the customer. Nobody was building for them. So we did.”
Why Trinity exists.
Most technology companies in automotive are built by engineers who've never held a parts invoice or fought a supplement denial. Trinity is different. Our founder spent over 30 years operating multi-location collision repair facilities — earning OEM certifications from Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Jaguar Land Rover, and electric vehicle platforms that most shops won't touch.
Then came the years in insurance as a re-inspector — the person sent in to audit whether repairs were actually done right. What those years revealed was a system built on friction, opacity, and misaligned incentives. Insurers optimizing for claim cost. Shops optimizing for margin. And in the middle, a car owner who trusted both parties and had no tools to verify anything.
Trinity is the answer to that broken system — a platform that uses blockchain verification, AI-powered intelligence, and transparent estimating to give every stakeholder a single source of truth. Not because it's a good business idea (it is), but because the industry has needed it for decades.
Pay as little as possible per claim. Challenge every line item. Approve aftermarket parts over OEM wherever policy language allows. The adjuster's KPI is claim cost — not repair quality.
Recover margin somewhere. If the insurer won't pay for the right procedure, find another way to make the numbers work. Corners get cut. Consumers pay with their safety.
No access to OEM standards. No way to verify an estimate. No visibility into what their policy actually covers until after the accident. Completely dependent on two parties with opposing interests.
The people building it.
30+ years of industry depth combined with serious technical horsepower in AI, blockchain, and distributed systems.
Daniel Resendiz
Daniel spent 30+ years building and operating multi-location MSO facilities — earning OEM certifications most shops never attempt. He then crossed the aisle to work in insurance as a re-inspector, giving him a rare view of how the insurance and repair industries interact behind closed doors. That experience is Trinity's blueprint.

- —30+ years MSO operations & compliance
- —Architect of Trinity's end-to-end workflow
Ebrahim Zulqarni
Ebrahim built automation systems at State Farm that saved tens of millions of dollars — then left to found Flyte AI, where he automated hundreds of commercial flights. He's a Coinbase Ambassador and Grant Recipient, bringing deep credibility to Trinity's blockchain and machine learning infrastructure.

We're building the operating layer for vehicle ownership.
Not another app. Not another dashboard. Trinity is the infrastructure layer that sits beneath every repair, every claim, every policy, and every transaction in the automotive ecosystem — verified, transparent, and owned by the consumer.
We're backed by decades of operational experience, real blockchain and AI engineering depth, and a patent-pending architecture built on Base (Coinbase's L2 network) — designed for the throughput and cost profile that automotive demands.
Why this team. Why now. Why Trinity.
Three things that make Trinity a different kind of bet in the automotive intelligence space.
Insight no one else has
Our founder has operated on both sides of the repair-insurance divide. That's not a talking point — it's the product. Every feature in Trinity was designed by someone who has lived the broken workflow it replaces. That's a moat no capital can buy after the fact.
Technical depth that matches the vision
Trinity's AI and blockchain infrastructure was built by engineers who have delivered at scale — at State Farm, in commercial aviation, and across automotive tech startups. The roadmap isn't aspirational. It's a build plan written by people who've shipped harder problems.
A market that's ready to break
Auto insurance fraud costs $50B a year. Consumers are locked out of their own vehicle data. Repair shops are squeezed between insurer audits and rising parts costs. The pressure has been building for 30 years. Trinity is the release valve — arriving at exactly the right moment.
