About The Company

Assured is on a mission to modernize the insurance industry by transforming claims processing, a critical yet often overlooked foundation of the sector. Traditional claims handling is highly manual, relying on phone calls, faxes, and gut instincts, which costs tens of billions of dollars annually. Assured provides innovative software solutions to large insurers, enabling them to thrive in a technology-driven world. Our offerings range from self-service claim-filing software to advanced backend fraud detection systems. We power claims processing for some of the largest insurers globally, tackling complex challenges such as creating digital experiences that offer clarity and comfort to claimants during stressful times and orchestrating large-scale machine learning-driven decision-making on billions of dollars in claims payments. At Assured, the work environment is dynamic, collaborative, and rewarding, where great decisions are driven by data rather than intuition.
