TOPDON USA, a premier provider of advanced automotive diagnostic tools, hardware, and software solutions, has entered into a strategic alliance with vehicle lifecycle management leader Solera. Under the new agreement, Solera’s industry-leading Identifix Direct-Hit® auto repair information platform will be directly integrated into TOPDON’s flagship ONE auto diagnostic tool series.
The integration bridges cutting-edge diagnostic hardware with one of the automotive industry’s most comprehensive databases of repair intelligence. Created to optimize shop operations and improve diagnosis, this partnership gives professionals such as technicians, fleet managers, and even advanced DIYers direct access to over 50 years of coverage and over 3 million verified fixes provided by fellow technicians.
The Integration of Hardware Accuracy with Field Knowledge
By leveraging this partnership, customers who use the TOPDON ONE-a versatile 10.1-inch tablet that provides diagnostics for vehicles from a bay side position-are able to connect directly to Identifix Direct-Hit® from their device. Direct-Hit is the combination of OEM service information and an exhaustive database of verified field repairs. The result of this integration means that mechanics can instantly correlate their diagnostic trouble code (DTC) issues with proven field repairs.

Subscriptions for the Identifix Direct-Hit Pro software can be activated directly on TOPDON ONE devices or purchased online via TOPDON USA’s official website. Following the initial deployment on the ONE series, plans are underway to expand Direct-Hit availability across additional TOPDON diagnostic hardware lines.
“We’re thrilled to join forces with Solera, which marks a significant milestone in advancing diagnostic repair technology for our industry,” said Chad Schnitz, vice president at TOPDON USA. “Our partnership represents two technology companies collaborating to offer the most robust diagnostic platform for auto repair technicians. As the leading auto repair shop software, Identifix Direct Hit perfectly aligns with our mission to be a trusted provider of leading auto repair technology.
