Our take
Insurance fraud is an $80B problem annually for American consumers and Owl.co is looking to put a stop to it. The company’s claim monitoring platform is designed to help providers mitigate and prevent fraud, and therefore cut premiums and adjust expenses for insurance customers. The company is currently focused on weeding out ineligible disability and workers' compensation insurance claims.
Owl.co doesn’t use discriminatory data like age, gender, or zip codes in its monitoring procedure, instead connecting to relevant data via a zero-knowledge protocol. This means Owl.co’s solution hits two key trends developing fast in the insurance industry: privacy, and equity. With these set to be two major priorities in the years ahead, Owl.co is smart to position itself at the centre of these two conversations
With clients like the Toronto Stock Exchange, and members of the top 10 North American banks and insurers, Owl.co already commands a strong customer base for its services. If it can secure a reputation for unbiased monitoring, this is likely to only grow.
