GlobeNewswire | September 11, 2020

Prima Solutions, the leading French insurtech group for insurance and reinsurance professionals in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific, has announced that AGPM has selected Prima XL as its cloud-based reinsurance management platform. The insurer is placing its confidence in Prima XL to optimize its reinsurance operations. The deployment of the Prima XL cloud platform is part of the group’s strategic initiative to streamline its information systems. After acquiring Prima P&C in 2004, Prima Analytics in 2007, and Prima Compliance in 2012, AGPM is reaffirming its commitment to Prima Solutions with the acquisition of a new tool, Prima XL, with the aim of standardizing its insurance/reinsurance tools and improving its performance in reinsurance calculations.  We chose Prima XL because we were impressed by the reliability of their cloud platform and the range of functionality offered,” says Philippe Auffray, Chief Financial Officer of AGPM.

Devron Works with Cover Whale to Promote Road Safety

Cover Whale | March 02, 2023

On March 1, 2023, Devron, a pioneer in artificial intelligence and machine learning for distributed and private data, announced its cooperation with Cover Whale Insurance Solutions, Inc., a top commercial trucking insurer and a rapidly expanding insurtech. Using Devron's federated data science platform, Cover Whale will build and train AI models that can quickly add new and different data sources to estimate risk better, offer to coach drivers, and align premiums. The Driver Safety Program offered by Cover Whale uses data science and AI to analyze risk and develop strategies to reduce it, making roads safer. The platform provided by Devron simplifies the process by enabling access to additional datasets and doing away with the requirement, cost, and privacy risk associated with relocating data. This federated method enables Cover Whale to design, train, and run more effective models to identify unsafe driving behaviors or circumstances more efficiently. In the past, for businesses to extract, duplicate, and move large amounts of data to get insights, they were required to develop complicated infrastructures. Devron gets around this requirement, so Cover Whale can build and train machine learning models on datasets where they are already stored. These datasets may include, for example, claims information, various vehicle telematics, external data related to highways, weather conditions, and other such information to acquire a more informed perspective on risk. Cover Whale has commissioned Devron to speed up ongoing data science projects, lay the groundwork for the future development of its operations, and enable faster access to various data sources, formats, and types while producing richer insights with less effort. About Cover Whale Cover Whale is an insurtech founded by industry veterans and tech entrepreneurs that provides cutting-edge policies for commercial vehicles through AI, sophisticated underwriting, and extensive data integration. Coverage, telematics, dash cams, and real-time driver teaching are part of its innovative Driver Safety Program, which aims to reduce claims, improve road safety, and save lives in the United States. The company also provides over 5,000 agencies with the quickest and most user-friendly online quote system.
