Insurance companies are using satellites, drones, and real-time data to give consumers more user-friendly policies. Telematics is also starting to see broader acceptance from automobile insurers to record the driving patterns and behavior of an individual and offer suitable auto insurance plans. AI is being used by a few insurers for pre-inspection of motor insurance.

Likewise, automated solutions within predefined parameters are accelerating policy purchases and claims processing, in a matter of minutes, driving consumer experience. In light of these technology trends, the insurtech market is expected to reach a net worth of $165 billion in the next five years.
