Cloud-based platforms will let auto insurers make a critical pivot away from purely reactive claims response and processing to claims minimization and avoidance.

If two or more insurtech solutions combine to solve multiple challenges, it is easier for insurers to commit.

The right approach to claims can turn average competitors into industry leaders and ensure longer-term success.
