In the world of commercial insurance, underwriting has long relied on outdated methods: slow PDF submissions, stale financial statements, and manual research that leaves carriers blind to real-time risk. As a result, pricing is often inaccurate, fraud goes undetected, and customer onboarding takes weeks — not hours.
That’s where Planck Data comes in — not just another data provider, but a dynamic, AI-powered commercial intelligence platform built to help insurers, reinsurers, and MGAs uncover real-time insights about businesses — at scale.
Unlike static databases that offer snapshots from years ago, Planck Data continuously monitors millions of commercial entities using public web signals, digital footprints, and machine learning to deliver up-to-date, actionable intelligence on everything from operations and revenue to risk exposure and compliance.
It’s not about guessing — it’s about knowing.
Tool Overview: What is Planck Data?
Planck Data is an AI-driven commercial risk intelligence platform designed for property & casualty (P&C) insurers who want to modernize underwriting, improve risk selection, and accelerate quoting.
The platform works by:
- Scanning the open web, social media, news, and business directories 24/7
- Using NLP and machine learning to extract insights on company size, operations, and risk factors
- Delivering real-time updates on business changes — like new locations, fleet growth, or safety violations
- Integrating directly into underwriting workstations, CRM, and policy administration systems
Used by top-tier insurers and digital brokers, Planck Data replaces manual research and guesswork with automated, accurate, and continuous business intelligence — so underwriters can make better decisions, faster.
It doesn’t just report data — it predicts risk.
