Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Akur8 and Portage Mutual, not ours.
Sophisticated models that previously took days to build can now be completed in hours, particularly for geospatial analysis.
From the very first weeks of our pilot, Akur8 proved to be a genuine game-changer for our actuarial teams. Sophisticated models that previously took days to build can now be completed in hours, particularly for geospatial analysis. We also gained strong confidence in Akur8's rating capabilities across both our Home and Auto portfolios. We are excited about what this partnership will deliver for our pricing operations and, ultimately, for the policyholders we serve across Canada.
