Frequently Asked Questions
- HazardHub data and models show up across every step of the underwriting lifecycle, helping insurers select better risk, price granularly, and increase quote throughput.
In underwriting, our intelligence helps insurers avoid the worst risks. In operations, it lowers expenses by automating underwriting and prioritizing inspections. And in pricing, it helps insurers segment their risk granularly to attract the best business and charge appropriately for risky exposure.
Our customers see massive ROI after adopting our AI/ML models, driven by how accurately they predict loss outcomes. Even a modest investment in better intelligence can lead to significant savings on indemnity and operating costs. It’s the industry’s most accurate property risk dataset. Our property data is sourced from hundreds of verified entities, including government agencies, geological surveys, and satellite imagery providers.
Our property risk analytics provide address-specific scores computed in real-time, using frequently refreshed data and the latest machine learning techniques. Our AI is trained on real-world claims data, so the insights are grounded in how losses actually happen.
HazardHub models have been approved by most state Departments of Insurance and public carrier filings show that the predictive scores track closely with actual losses.HazardHub draws from a wide range of data to assess property risks. That includes atmospheric and weather data (for hail, wind, and flood), geological and geotechnical information (for earthquake, landslide, sinkhole, and slope), infrastructure details (such as fire hydrant locations and fire station staffing), and property-specific characteristics (like square footage, year built, and construction materials).
We pinpoint exactly which hazards your property is close to, whether it’s a coastline (wind), a windborne debris zone (hurricane), hydrants (fire), flammable vegetation or the wildland-urban interface (wildfire), or liquor stores and shuttered meth labs (crime).
To see our data dictionary, please sign up for the HazardHub API at https://api.hazardhub.com/- Yes. While HazardHub is deeply integrated with Guidewire PolicyCenter and InsuranceNow, it’s also available as a standalone web-based tool or via a lightning-fast API that can be integrated into any third-party system or internal workflow.
- Yes. HazardHub is easy to integrate into any software platform. Our data and models are embedded into hundreds of comparative raters, insurance core systems, broker/agent systems of record, and lead generation platforms. The integration is easy. Insurers call our API, and we send back a full array of data and scores within two seconds.
For Guidewire customers, the data is already integrated with PolicyCenter and InsuranceNow. - Underwriters, use our data to prefill submissions, determine eligibility, and prioritize inspections. This helps move business through more quickly while staying aligned with your risk appetite.
Insurers and MGAs use HazardHub’s models to move beyond broad territory-based pricing and build peril-by-peril, address-level rating plans. That allows them to price more accurately, offer better rates to genuinely low-risk homes, and charge appropriately where risk is higher.
- It gives you a clear view of where your risk is building up. You can manage reinsurance costs, avoid getting too concentrated in one area, and make more confident capital decisions. For example, if you start to see too many properties stacking up in high-risk flood or hail zones, you can adjust your appetite or reinsurance strategy before it becomes a bigger issue.
- Yes, HazardHub refreshes the underlying data regularly. HazardHub also uses a patented “live scoring” technology that calculates risk for a specific location in real-time using the most current data available. This means each score reflects recent conditions (e.g, recent wildfires, windstorms, and WUI/fuel classification).
- HazardHub is the market’s most advanced AI-driven property analytics for several reasons. First, it’s the most comprehensive source of hazard and peril risk analytics, with over 50 models and 1,200+ supporting data points. Second, the models are trained on billions of dollars of real-world claims outcomes and exposure data, making their predictions more reliable. Third, the scores are easy to understand and fully transparent, so you can see exactly why a property scores the way it does. Finally, the API is straightforward to integrate, with many customers up and running in less than a day.
