Who We Are, What We Believe, & What We Build

Guidewire is the AWS of insurance. As the market leader, 380 insurance companies run on our mission critical platform. Every second, we support underwriters crafting policies and agents settling claims. We believe that making a great decision should not require 100 in-house data scientists. Our products range from cyber risk quantification to potent ML sandboxes. We are a post-IPO company with the vision to revolutionize insurance, and analytics is a huge part of this. There is a lot to be done.

Our Predictive Analytics product is an advanced, P&C insurance specific machine learning platform that empowers insurers to make smart data-driven decisions throughout the insurance lifecycle. The product is being used by over 40 P&C insurers, supported by a Guidewire team of full stack developers, ML engineers, actuaries and data consultants. Our vision is to build the world’s leading solution to build, enrich, monitor and deploy predictive models for P&C insurers, with a delightful user experience honed for data scientists and actuaries, running in the cloud and powered by the latest ML and data technologies.
