hyperexponential
Pricing decision intelligence platform (hx Renew) for specialty and commercial insurers.
About
hyperexponential is a London insurtech whose hx Renew platform is built for pricing actuaries and underwriters at specialty and commercial insurers. Actuaries build rating models in Python inside the platform, and a continuous data-to-decision feedback loop captures pricing decisions from model build to policy bind, then feeds claims data back in to recalibrate rating factors. The company positions hx Renew as a replacement for spreadsheet-based rating tools.
Carriers including Aviva, HDI, and Conduit Re write over $37 billion of premium annually through hx Renew, according to the company. Aviva's Global Corporate and Specialty team built 20 pricing models in nine months on the platform, cutting policy creation from over an hour to under ten minutes. hyperexponential is backed by Battery Ventures, Andreessen Horowitz, and Highland Europe, and partners with Akur8, Cytora, and Send. Pricing is enterprise and quote-based.
