a. Claims calls are often used to better detect fraud (tone/pauses etc) and ask probing questions to deny claims. The friction of having to make a call also helps to reduce claim volumes.*(not all insurers)
b. Not sure, the insurer should negotiate competitive rates and know what they are. This could be on a sliding scale or otherwise vary dynamically based on claims and performance criteria.
c. Insurance is state-regulated in US. There may be specific requirements relating to this.
I spent a decade working in insurance and reinsurance in the UK. The US healthcare system is a different beast but there are some similarities.
Insurers are using tech in lots of interesting (and... unethical?) ways. Some reasonable ways would be linking to wearable or IoT devices for real-time data and offer incentives to care better for your health and home.
Others, like pricing and claims optimization strategies are a bit more questionable. This is where they'll vary prices and claims to maximize profitability. With claims optimization, the insurer will use data about the person's financial situation to determine how low a pay-out they can make e.g. £1000 today or new car next week.
With AI, they can analyze more datasets e.g. social media activity to analyze behaviours and likelihood of claims in order to adapt pricing... they've done this forever. 20 years ago they'd vary pricing based on your email provider.
There are new models like UBI (usage based insurance) and on-demand insurance, and some new entrants are using tech to streamline operations including cutting the contact centres - so it's being done by some.
I think there are more fundamental opportunities to disrupt and build more accessible and profitable insurance models with a longer-term view though.
I think it depends what you ask for. Notion style webpages, fine. Yesterday I asked for gauge charts and it didn't perform well at all, I'll need to get better at prompting.
Yes, i'm a millenial and no good at posing. I want my phone to act as a professional photographer and tell me to turn to the side, lean in etc... maybe even throw some compliments :)
Had quick look at home page above the fold. Messaging imo was quite clear until I saw the 'See rewards' button. Putting myself in the shoes of a potential buyer, I'm not interested in promoting your service, i want to learn more so i can decide if it's for me. Hope that helps and good luck.
That's cool! Why just a weekend business? Sounds like you have a good product there. Can I also ask, clearly you have some great ideas, skills and experience, why not go it alone full-time without the employer?
Oh really? I'm from UK and never seen infomercials about taking an idea to market - can you please share some examples? I hear there are a few rip-off merchants out there that ask for tens of thousands up front even if your idea is not a good one.
That's really interesting. Congrats on getting a board game licensed, winning contest and releasing other games! What types of challenges or feedback did you encounter when facing difficulties in finding publishers for your other designs?
Conversion rate likely higher in US and depends obvs on you, your idea, your pitch, timing etc
