Indico Data unveils AI-driven Agentic Decisioning Platform for insurers

Yahoo05-06-2025
Insurtech company Indico Data has launched a new Agentic Decisioning Platform designed specifically for the insurance sector.
This suite of AI agents and agentic solutions is designed to augment underwriting and claims decisioning in commercial insurance, the company said.
The platform includes Agent Studio, Agent Builder and Agent Workflow Canvas, and has been developed specifically for commercial insurers.
The platform will allow carriers to replicate human decision-making in complex workflows including triage, analysis and validation of submissions, the company claims.
Indico noted that the platform has led to a more than 80% reduction in manual processing time, a four-times increase in submission handling capacity, and 85% faster turnaround in underwriting and claims processing among insurers that have adopted the technology.
The Agentic Decisioning Platform comprises specialised Extraction & Classification, Summarisation, Validation, Data Enrichment and Web Research agents.
These agents are intended to handle insurance tasks such as data retrieval, document summarisation, accuracy checks, contextual data integration and web-based information gathering.
Agent Builder allows insurers to create customised agents for tasks such as field extraction, classification, validation and summarisation using pre-built templates.
The Agentic Workflow Canvas enables users to assemble these agents into complete decision-making workflows, with support for conditional logic, parallel execution and data routing.
Current applications include underwriting submission triage, summarisation of multi-year loss run data, ingestion of broker communications, delegated authority bordereaux processing and early-stage claims triage.
The Agentic Decisioning Platform is available as part of Indico's Decision Automation Platform.
Indico Data CEO Tom Wilde said: 'This is the moment the industry shifts from automation to autonomy. Agentic Decisioning isn't just about efficiency – it is about enabling the insurance enterprise to operate with real-time intelligence, at scale, across every submission. We built this for AI impact, not AI experimentation.
'The Indico platform is the foundation for those ready to lead – not just survive – the next decade of insurance.'
In April, Indico Data launched its Ready for Guidewire validated accelerator for ClaimCenter on Guidewire Cloud, available via the Guidewire Marketplace.

Will Opendoor's Agent-Led Model Drive a 2026 Revenue Rebound?

Opendoor Technologies Inc. OPEN has shifted its focus to a more agent-led model from the capital-intensive model, and is witnessing substantial returns from this strategic move. Its agent-led model determines the direct connection of agents with sellers for the better integration of offers and listing options. Piloted in selected markets in the first quarter of 2025, this new model has resulted in five times more listing conversion rates, with customers reaching double the time of the final underwritten cash offer (all-cash proposal made directly to the homebuyer) compared with OPEN's traditional to the robust acceptance of this new agent-led model, Opendoor could exercise this initiative throughout all the markets it operates in as of the second quarter of 2025. Besides, during the second quarter, the company highlighted its optimization phase regarding the agent-led model, which will include more agent collaboration, enhanced tools, better training processes and more product offerings. On July 15, 2025, OPEN launched its Key Agent iOS app to enable agents to perform high-quality home assessments through phones, resulting in better customer connection and enriching its AI with enhanced Opendoor also launched Cash Plus, a hybrid product designed for sellers in the market to get an understanding of immediate cash offers and prospective profit options. This product is gaining traction upon its launch, and is aimed at diversifying revenues, reducing capital intensity and improving contribution margin company believes that the inputs from the new agent-led initiative are expected to come to light from 2026. As this new initiative scales and reaches full potential amid the expected normalization of the macro risks, Opendoor will be able to realize incremental benefits in the long term. Does Opendoor Face Competition in the Market? Opendoor is focusing on operating through a distinct distributed platform model, and given this approach, it faces substantial competition from other market players, including Offerpad Solutions, Inc. OPAD and Rocket Companies, Inc. engages in buying, renovating and reselling homes, operating as a pure-play iBuyer. However, it has also introduced more flexible seller solutions to reduce balance sheet risk. Through the operation speed, pricing and customer experience factors, Offerpad offers direct competition to Opendoor in the the other hand, Rocket Companies operates through a diversified fintech and consumer homeownership platform. Upon the acquisition of Redfin in March 2025, this company entered into the evolving digital real estate ecosystem. Redfin's inclusion opened doors for Rocket Companies to a strong online marketplace, brokerage network and brand recognition, positioning it as a strong competitor to Opendoor in the market. OPEN Stock's Price Performance & Valuation Trend Shares of this California-based company offering a digital platform for residential real estate transactions have soared 215% in the past three months, significantly outperforming the Zacks Internet - Software industry, the Zacks Computer and Technology sector and the S&P 500 index.

Ethereum: Are Rumors Of Its Death Premature?

I remember moving into an Airbnb near Apple, only to find squatters coding for a nascent ethereum. They quickly vacated once the managing agent realized their side hustle was bust, but not before I chatted with the itinerant devs about what they were up to. Let's just say, I didn't buy any ethereum at about $1 because well, eh – no excuses really! I made up for it later, and I still hold a candle for ETH. So it is with some pleasure that I see it making a classical breakout: I don't think I need to draw lines on this chart. But let me draw some on this: So you see, I'm not a perma-crypto bear. This is also an interesting chart: How I gauge it, bitcoin has outperformed ethereum by 100%, and I must admit, during the crypto winter, I thought the outperformance would go the other way. However, ethereum has faced a lot of competition, particularly from the cool kiddies in Solana-town. It also keeps changing the rules on its ecosystem, and behavior like this, however mild, is liable to take the momentum out of the price. So now ETH is on the move, and once again it's the role of the crazy treasury reserve idea that is getting the animal instinct aflutter. So, is this the start of the longed for 'alt season' crypto denizens crave, or was that back at the beginning of the year when ran amuck with all the AI agentic pump-dumps of that chapter? Will the all in BTC-maxis suddenly go ETH-maxi? Will ETH drain BTC? Google trends says there is life in the old ETH dog yet: That might mean alt-season II is a possibility. As such, we should look out for some craziness, if that's your trading poison.

Vibe coding is the future — just don't trust it (yet)

In late June, the CEO of a tech startup halted all software development at the company. He wanted to ensure every team member who worked with code was up to speed on the latest trend: vibe coding. "You start to realize, wow, these things could move way faster," Rowan Trollope, the CEO of Redis, a software company, told Business Insider. He immediately approved the use of all AI-assisted coding tools. Then the company launched a weeklong hackathon that challenged teams of employees to "use all the latest and greatest AI technologies to do something cool," Trollope said. Companies have found, however, that despite the excitement — and the millions in funding pouring into vibe coding companies — the technology is still limited. So, many CEOs are developing new policies and tools to maximize the benefits of vibe coding while mitigating the pitfalls. Vibe coding is when developers (or anyone, really) prompt AI to generate code. In a survey of hundreds of engineers in May, Jellyfish, a software intelligence platform, found that 90% of them had integrated AI into their work, up from 61% just a year ago. Vibe coding is now a marketable skill in Silicon Valley. Companies from Visa to Reddit to DoorDash are posting jobs that require vibe coding experience or familiarity with AI coding tools. Meta now allows job candidates to use an AI assistant in their coding interviews. The term was coined by OpenAI cofounder Andrej Karpathy in February. "There's a new kind of coding I call 'vibe coding,' where you fully give in to the vibes, embrace exponentials, and forget that the code even exists," Karpathy wrote in a post on X. "I just see stuff, say stuff, run stuff, and copy-paste stuff, and it mostly works." Limits to the technology remain, however. Though vibe coding promises quick productivity gains and allows people with little coding experience to create software, tech executives say AI is still prone to mistakes, often writes unnecessarily long code, or lacks the proper architecture. So Trollope and other tech CEOs have had to introduce parameters for its use. Trollope said vibe coding is best for building proof of concepts, writing tests, and validating existing code, but not necessarily developing any of the company's core software. "It's still not in a place yet where we would trust it with our core technology," he said. While still limited, this new, more freewheeling approach has gained momentum in part thanks to the money flowing into vibe coding platforms. Last month, Anysphere, the company behind Cursor, an AI-assisted code editor, announced a $900 million Series C fundraise at a $9.9 billion valuation. Wix, a web-development platform, announced that it had acquired the vibe coding platform Base44 for $80 million. Replit, a code editor, saw revenue grow fivefold in September after it released Agent, a coding assistant that works with natural language prompts. By June, the company landed a new $250 million funding round that brought its valuation to $3 billion, according to Forbes. Swedish vibe coding startup Lovable, one of Europe's fastest-growing startups, raised $200 million in Series A funding in July at a $1.8 billion valuation, according to PitchBook. The funding frenzy pushed AirTable, a database development platform, to relaunch last month as a fully AI-native platform. As part of the overhaul, the company created an app-building assistant called Omni for vibe coders. It allows developers to "conversationally vibe generate the app they want, but understand what's been generated all the way down to the data and logic layer as well," AirTable said in a blog post announcing the overhaul. "There's still a question of: Is that an AI tourist attraction? Is it going to be durable? Is it going to be high churn?" AirTable CEO Howie Liu told Business Insider. But "all these people are coming in and pulling out their credit cards to try it out." For AirTable, "not fully reinventing ourselves is kind of like a guaranteed path to obsolescence," Liu said. With the launch of Omni, Liu also saw an opportunity to correct some of the problems that come with vibe coding. With vibe coding, "you're not really inspecting the code, you're not really thinking about the technical architecture, you're just telling it what you want it to build and kind of like clicking the 'I'm feeling lucky button,'" Liu said. "The magical thing is like the AI has gotten good enough that it seemingly just works some of the time." But even apps that "seemingly work" can be riddled with errors and security vulnerabilities at their deeper, infrastructure layers. In a perfect world, developers could leverage artificial general intelligence to code apps given the breadth of information that developers need to reason through, Liu said. Until then, developers need a "two-way feedback loop between the agent that is building the code, or building the app, and the user, the human, who's guiding it and saying, 'here's what I actually want you to build.'" At Redis, humans are convening internal groups to share best prompting practices to improve their part of the equation, Trollope said. "I think people do go on a journey where you start very small and you very quickly realize the prompts can get longer and longer and more and more complicated," he said.
