Urbanico
Urban intelligence platform translating municipal data into hyper-localized risk insights for P&C insurers.
Overview
Urbanico is an urban data analytics platform for property and casualty insurers, providing hyper-localized risk scoring derived from raw municipal data. Founded in 2019 and headquartered in Jerusalem, Israel, the company helps carriers improve underwriting accuracy for property and casualty lines by integrating municipal government data at the census block level.
The platform applies deep learning, automated machine learning, and natural language processing to billions of data points from thousands of local governments. It models contextual perils including theft, vandalism, fire, and bodily injury, delivering risk scores through an API-based data fusion architecture that integrates with existing underwriting systems.
Urbanico raised a USD 1.6M seed round supported by Menorah Mivtachim, one of Israel's leading insurance groups, as well as accelerator programs Creative Destruction Lab, Plug and Play, and OurCrowd. Backtesting with tier-1 carriers has demonstrated reductions of over 6 percentage points in loss ratios with minimal impact on gross written premium.
