Boost Loss Prevention with Chrp’s New Guidewire Marketplace App

SAN MATEO, Calif. & DEBARY, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 17, 2024-- Guidewire (NYSE: GWRE) and Chrp Technologies (Chrp) announced that Chrp’s new Ready for Guidewire validated accelerator is now available to PolicyCenter users in the Guidewire Marketplace.

Chrp specializes in inspection-based loss prevention for insurers. Its proprietary technology guides homeowners through a simple four-point virtual home inspection and uses artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze the home, identifying potential hazards. The resulting data is used to provide bespoke actionable insights to insurers based on their underwriting guidelines, allowing them to underwrite quickly and accurately. It also enables homeowners to fix any potential hazards, reducing the likelihood of a claim.

With Chrp’s Loss Prevention Accelerator, insurers can:

• Quickly order Chrp inspections directly from PolicyCenter;
• Automatically pre-fill relevant policy data for the homeowner, saving them time and boosting satisfaction;
• Easily review and store completed inspection data in PolicyCenter; and
• Improve loss ratios and underwriting efficiency.

Chrp’s inspection reviews over 200 known failure points both inside and outside homes, catching hazards before they become expensive claims. The platform’s end-to-end workflow automates all communications and notifications between the insurer, policyholders, and agents.

“Our technology uses AI to identify the condition of a home with a very high rate of accuracy, reducing home inspection costs and preventing countless property claims,” said Chin Ma, President, Chrp. “Combining Chrp and Guidewire gives our shared customers a one-stop-shop for all things loss prevention.”

“Congratulations to Chrp on the release of its new PolicyCenter app,” said Will Murphy, Vice President, Global Technology Alliances, Guidewire. “Chrp’s technology is powerful because it benefits both insurers and homeowners, reducing risk for both parties. Additionally, homeowners are empowered to protect the value of their home using Chrp, helping insurers to build better relationships with them and increasing policyholder satisfaction.”
