Porch Group, Inc. (“Porch” or “the Company”) (NASDAQ: PRCH), a
homeowners insurance and vertical software platform, today
announced Porch Group Media (“PGM”), the data and marketing
subsidiary of Porch, has signed an agreement to license
non-exclusively its unique Home Factors insights to
California-based insurance MGA, Bamboo Ide8 Insurance Services,
LLC. (“Bamboo”).
This agreement follows the recent announcement of Home Factors’
official third-party launch in the market. Porch Group Media has
Home Factors for approximately 90% of US homes, providing unique
and valuable insights not previously available. For example,
identifying that an electric panel needs repair indicates 41%
higher claims frequency. These insights have already demonstrated
strong performance with Porch’s own insurance carrier, Homeowners
of America Insurance Company (“HOA”), where it has contributed to
its improvement in loss ratio performance.
Home Factors provides value for consumers and carriers.
Consumers can get fairer prices based on the actual risk of their
property and insurance carriers are expected to achieve more
accurate pricing and lower underwriting costs. Tests with HOA and
other third-party partners such as Bamboo continue to validate Home
Factors’ value in underwriting, rate, claims, marketing and overall
risk management. Bamboo is among the first to leverage Home Factors
insights for a tech-forward and data-driven approach to
underwriting, and reduce the cost of manual underwriting.
“Signing our strategic Home Factors partnership with Bamboo is a
significant milestone for Porch,” said Michelle Taves, VP &
Group GM, Data and Marketing. “This continues to demonstrate the
value that Home Factors brings to insurers looking to improve
underwriting efficiency and risk assessment through advanced data
insights. This agreement marks a key milestone for Home Factors and
we are excited about the opportunity to work closely with the
innovative team at Bamboo and the impact Home Factors can have on
Porch’s future.”
“We’re thrilled to partner with Porch Group Media and have the
opportunity to leverage Home Factor’s exclusive data insights to
further elevate our risk selection,” said Brian Suzuki, Chief
Insurance Officer at Bamboo Insurance. “As a business, we’re always
looking for opportunities to crank up our efficiencies. Given Home
Factors' ability to provide us with unique property data that
directly supports our underwriting processes, this partnership was
simply a no-brainer.”
