A BIT ABOUT US

At CAPE, we pioneered the creation of property intelligence analytics through computer vision, machine learning, and geospatial imagery.

Property intelligence from CAPE allows insurance carriers to elevate their underwriting workflows, which consider a multitude of risk factors that determine each policy’s eligibility and price. CAPE’s low-latency APIs feed risk-relevant data into consumer shopping interfaces, programmatic underwriting workflows, and insurance pricing models. Our risk intelligence web portal provides a deep view into property-level risk for underwriters. CAPE’s products improve our clients’ underwriting efficiency and effectiveness and enable them to deliver superior experiences to their policyholders.

CAPE’s solutions have been adopted by leading insurance carriers across the U.S., Canada, and Australia...but we are just getting started. Over the past 10 years, we have constructed a risk analytics platform purpose-built for deep learning. Going forward, we set out to solve an even larger share of the problem, leveraging a radically expanded array of input data sources and advanced machine learning technologies.
