Creating something big and meaningful
This passion to leverage technology in new and impactful ways led Concirrus to focus on supporting the insurance industry, and more specifically commercial marine and motor insurance. A potent blend of deep domain expertise and data science led to the creation of our big data and machine learning platform – Quest.
Quest, accesses and interprets wide-ranging datasets, combining them with historical claims information to reveal the behaviours that correlate to claims. The results enable insurers and brokers to more accurately quantify risk; reduce losses and boost profits. Quest also makes new, powerful and differentiated product propositions a reality.
