It’s difficult to identify the best risks manually with a wide-variety of formats
All carriers have the difficult task of responding to the growing volumes of inbound submissions in a timely manner. Especially with middle-market and large accounts because these submissions are sent via email and contain insurance applications, exposure schedules, loss runs and other attachments. And, often times, critical information is within the body of the email itself.
It can take days or weeks with considerable cost to piece together all the information required to address this growing number of submissions– and key processes used to set up each individual submission call for these data pieces.
With these factors combined, we see carriers face a continual struggle between the cost, time, and quality of data acquisition.
The impact for carriers has never been greater
More than half of every premium dollar collected is spent on expenses associated with writing business, both renewals and new.
The cost to acquire data from each submission ranges from $85 to $100, which is a cost that doesn’t even represent access to all of the necessary data points. And then, is it accurate?
Often times, carriers are forced to make the tradeoff of using minimal information to clear a submission and quote new business based upon relationship and instinct.

A more complete data set
Our technology automatically extracts the data from all submission documents and fuses it with 3rd party data in the same process. This fusion creates a complete view of risk– an advantage that is not readily available to carriers today with manual process.
