Robotics in Insurance – Thematic Research
Powered by
All the vital news, analysis, and commentary curated by our industry experts.
Robotics is a fast-growing industry that is helping insurers inspect post-catastrophe areas that are hazardous for human adjusters. Insurers are increasingly using a key segment of the robotics value chain, drones, to streamline claims and risk assessment processes. Drones help insurers gather vast amounts of data, including images of large or hard-to-reach assets, whether for risk assessment or during the claims process. Maintenance robots monitor the condition of an asset and alert customers when a repair is needed, reducing the likelihood of future claims. Although in its nascent stage, the insurance industry is using inspection robots to safely inspect post-disaster zones, which can gather more information about an environment than a drone. Furthermore, medical robots and exoskeletons are areas of interest for life insurers who offer policyholders access at no additional cost.
Many insurers also use drones to conduct risk and damage assessments for crop fields or hard-to-access areas. Like robots, drones can inspect dangerous terrains and assets, saving on the need for additional agents and infrastructure for human inspections. In addition, drones allow inspections to be carried out more quickly, improving customer service.
