CAPE Analytics, an artificial intelligence powered property intelligence provider, announced the launch of an expanded hail product suite, built to provide property insurers with a comprehensive toolkit for assessing and pricing property-level hail risk.
CAPE Hail Intelligence combines machine learning, imagery analytics, and forensic weather history for a view of hail risk, including risk scores and analytics such as a hail experience rating that estimates the likelihood that a property has experienced recent hail damage that cannot be captured by roof condition assessments.
It also provides a hail vulnerability rating that considers factors such as structure footprint, roof condition, and roof covering material to help insurers assess a property’s susceptibility to hail damage, and a hail risk rating that provides insurers with an overall assessment of a property’s risk to hail by combining vulnerability and forensic weather analytics from Canopy Weather.
Its hail loss severity rating also estimates the potential severity of a future hail claim based on a property’s characteristics to help insurers gauge the monetary impact of hail damage.
CAPE Analytics provides instant property insights for residential and commercial buildings by analyzing high-resolution imagery, property records, and data sources using computer vision and machine learning. With a mission to better understand and protect the built environment, CAPE provides property stakeholders with risk-predictive property attributes. Comprised of insurance, real estate, and data experts, CAPE is backed by venture capital firms and insurance carriers.
