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technology can trim product launch times to a matter of months versus typical timeframes of a year to 18 months for outdated systems.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.

Bamboo Insurance transitions to Socotra’s cloud-native core

Socotra’s agile core platform will now power all Bamboo product offerings

We are excited to announce that Bamboo Insurance, a high-growth insurtech company, has selected Socotra — the first cloud-native insurance core platform — to power its existing insurance offerings and new product lines.

Bamboo Insurance offers flexible and transparent insurance options including homeowners, dwelling fire, flood, and earthquake insurance. Currently operating in California, Bamboo’s partnership with Socotra will enable a rapid expansion of coverage and product offerings in additional states.

“Our approach is to leverage state of the art data and technology in order to meet the evolving needs of our customers and transform the insurance industry. That requires technology that embraces modern architecture, is cloud-native, and scalable. Socotra meets all those requirements and also provides us with the technology platform that fosters innovation with an eye on customer-first service,” said Bamboo CEO and insurance veteran John Chu. “Many insurtechs fail to realize that efficient integration is the key to faster migration and adoption, but Socotra provides a seamless integration process with well-documented APIs and modern architecture.”

“John and I share a similar understanding that costly, inefficient legacy technology can’t compare to the latest advancements. For that reason, I’m proud that Socotra is the sole core platform chosen to power all of Bamboo’s existing and new product lines,” said Socotra CEO Dan Woods. “Our technology will enable the Bamboo team to continue to deliver straightforward, simple, and affordable insurance to customers.”
