Following the awards ceremony, held at the Insurance AI and Analytics USA Summit, Chicago, the three winners of the Insurance Nexus AI Pioneers Awards have been announced.

The awards were held to showcase and celebrate those companies and individuals who have made the most impact in insurance AI innovation over the past year, with entrants nominated, and voted for, by the industry. The volume of responses was outstanding, with 3,000 votes cast across the three categories.

There were three categories of awards: Underwriting Application of the year (recognizes the most exceptional business case on underwriting over the past 12 months), Customer Experience Application (recognizes the most exceptional business case on customer experience over the past 12 months) and Claims Application (recognizes the most exceptional business case on claims over the past 12 months). The winners of the three awards, announced last week, are:

• Underwriting Application – ‘Pod’ by Hippo Insurance with 56.1% of the votes
• Customer Experience Application - Safelite Alexa Skill and Watch Us On Our Way, by Safelite Autoglass with 48.5% of the votes
• Claims Application - Intelligent Water Monitoring Solution, by Eddy Home with 30% of the votes

There is clearly a huge focus on innovation in insurance right now, particularly where AI and automation are concerned.
