The simplest (yet perhaps the greatest) characteristic that InsurTech brings to insurance is “change” – in product innovation, in customer experience, in processing, in speed and agility. InsurTech is a touchstone for the digital transformation of insurance in Canada.
Whether they are new startups or long-time incumbents transforming into InsurTechs, whether they are businesses processing insurance or InsurTech(nology) providers, InsurTechs are at the heart of the dramatic changes that we are seeing in this industry.
Insurance-Canada.ca’s InsurTech Spotlight showcases a growing number of insurance practitioners and InsurTech(nology) providers. Each submission has been added into the sortable table below, with a link to an expanded description.
This week we are shining the Spotlight on:
Harnessing the power of home-sharing, Sinistar provides insurers with flexible, personalised insurance housing solutions. The company's platform connects homeowners and claims adjusters seeking temporary homes for their insureds. This bridge between insurers and individual property owners breaks down the boundaries of the insurance housing market, enabling individual property owners to participate. Learn more.
To participate, request and complete the submission form. Qualifying submissions will be added to the Spotlight index and shared with our online audience via the Chronicle newsletter.
