Pibit Joins Guidewire PartnerConnect, Bringing Risk-Scored Submissions to PolicyCenter
The Californer/10362883

Californer -- Pibit, the Y Combinator-backed AI Underwriting OS company for US commercial, specialty, and E&S carriers and MGAs, today announced that it has joined the Guidewire PartnerConnect program as a Technology Partner. Pibit is also building the Pibit Accelerator for PolicyCenter, which will bring analyzed, risk-scored submissions directly into Guidewire PolicyCenter on Guidewire Cloud.

Risk analysis sits at the center of the accelerator. Pibit enriches every account from public and third-party data matched to the line of business, then scores it factor by factor against the carrier's own appetite and underwriting guidelines. The score, risk band and each positive or negative signal will be written to the Submission, traced to the data behind them, so underwriters can see why a risk scored the way it did and defend that reasoning to a manager, an auditor or a reinsurer. Submissions will be ranked by risk quality instead of arrival order, adverse findings will raise Underwriting Issues in PolicyCenter, and every renewal will be re-scored with change flags and its direction against the prior term. Carriers set their own scoring weights, appetite rules and routing.

"Many of the carriers we work with run their book on PolicyCenter, and the thing we hear over and over is that underwriters do not want one more screen to check. So we're building the accelerator to write the risk score, the signals behind it and the source documents straight onto the submission, where the underwriter already works. Joining Guidewire PartnerConnect means carriers and MGAs on Guidewire Cloud will be able to get that without rebuilding anything around it," said Akash Agarwal, founder and CEO of Pibit.

Pibit customers can see up to 20% higher hit ratio, 2x underwriter throughput and 70% faster time to quote.
