Valen Releases Predictive Analytics Tool
Denver-based Valen Technologies has released a predictive analytics system, InsureRight, which the company claims helps P&C underwriters make better risk and pricing decisions.
The cloud based, web-enabled system designed for workers’ compensation insurers includes a Risk Score and a Misclassification Score.
The Risk Score predicts a new or renewal policy’s prospective term loss ratio and provides a price indication that underwriters use to select and price policies more accurately, while the Misclassification Score predicts the percentage of misclassified exposure on a policy. Both models include data from more than 2 million policies.
“InsureRight provides workers’ compensation carriers the ability to mediate underwriting and pricing errors by providing a non-biased, statistically and empirically valid indication of future policy performance," Dax Craig, president and CEO of Valen Technologies, says in a statement.
