Coretech Insight Report: Insurers Can See Up to $25M Revenue Gain

A Coretech Insight Study Commissioned by Socotra

Insurers know that speed and agility are key to growth. But they struggle to quantify the value of investing in new technologies in terms of speed-to-market and revenue. To address this challenge, Coretech Insight, an independent advisory firm focused on core technology for the insurance industry, conducted a breakthrough study modeling three real-world scenarios to assess the economic value of speed-to-market, using publicly available industry and government data and validation by senior industry participants.

The analysis compared product launches for incumbent systems against new cloud-native agile platforms and found that insurers that launch products faster by deploying cloud agile technology are able to generate a revenue gain of as much as $25 million over five years.

What will you learn from this report? You’ll get the detailed information supporting these results and learn how findings like these were determined in this analysis:

  • The benefits of shorter time-to-market exceeded the costs of implementing and operating new cloud technology by a wide margin—as much as 40 times the cost of implementation.
  • Cloud agile technology can trim product launch times to a matter of months versus typical timeframes of a year to 18 months for outdated systems.
  • Cloud agile platform product launches enable insurers to capture revenue that would otherwise be lost to extended launch timeframes.
  • Insurers are forfeiting millions of dollars in new premiums due to delays common with incumbent systems.

A record 17 InsurTechs chose Socotra in 2021

More insurtechs are choosing Socotra instead of building their own policy cores or using legacy providers

“Every insurtech MGA starts with a product vision and a technology plan based on modern paradigms such as cloud, open APIs, and microservice design. The last thing a startup founder wants is to be forced onto legacy technology, even before it has a single customer. That’s why the initial wave of insurtechs chose to build their own core systems. The new wave of insurtechs has a modern off-the-shelf option in Socotra, and they are now choosing it in droves.” – Dan Woods, Founder and CEO of Socotra

With over $15 billion in funding in 2021, a new class of insurtechs is emerging and accelerating the modernization of the insurance industry. These insurtech MGAs are contending with limited budgets, short timeframes, and high expectations. Therefore, they’re choosing technologies that are both proven and innovative—whether it’s their payment processor, data provider, cloud infrastructure, or policy administration. They’re finding that Socotra is the only policy core that keeps pace with modern platforms in other industries.
