Case study

A UK reinsurer, running real underwriting on Smartek InsureX today.

Not a pilot. Not a proof of concept. This is what Smartek InsureX looks like in daily use, at a live reinsurance business.

What's live

What the platform actually does here

The full underwriting operation runs through Smartek InsureX — not a single module bolted onto an existing system.

Broker submissions

Incoming submissions are monitored automatically, with AI-assisted extraction turning broker documents into structured risk data.

Underwriting workflow

Every risk moves through the same tracked path — submission, assessment, approval, bind, renewal — with a full audit trail at each stage.

Governance

Line size limits are set at binder level, with a two-tier supervisory structure routing higher-value risks to the right approver automatically.

Catastrophe modelling

An in-house CAT modelling capability, currently in beta, supports underwriting assessment alongside professional judgement.

Finance & reporting

Debit notes, payment tracking, and live portfolio reporting run from the same underlying risk data — no separate reconciliation step.

Day to day

How a risk actually moves through the system

1

Submission arrives

A broker submission lands in the underwriting mailbox and is picked up automatically.

2

Structured risk created

AI-assisted extraction turns the submission into a structured risk record for the underwriter to review.

3

Underwriter assesses

The underwriter reviews the extracted information, applies judgement, and progresses the risk — every AI output checked by a person before it's relied on.

4

Approval routes automatically

Depending on value, the risk is approved directly or routed to the appropriate supervisor — without anyone needing to remember which threshold applies.

5

Bind, finance, and reporting follow through

Once bound, the risk feeds finance operations and portfolio reporting automatically — the same record, start to finish.

Why this matters to us

This is the platform we're bringing to market

Smartek InsureX wasn't designed on a whiteboard for a hypothetical customer. It was built to run a real reinsurance operation, and it's still running one today. When we talk about what the platform can do, we're describing what it's already doing — not what we hope it will do eventually.

Smart Sat: damage assessment, from above

Smart Sat turns satellite imagery into a claims ready damage assessment, not just a picture to interpret yourself. Findings link directly into the risk and claims records already held in the Smartek Reinsurance Platform and the Takaful platform, so a damage assessment from Smart Sat becomes part of the same record an underwriter or claims handler is already working from.
