Zurich and Onto use AI to gain unbiased risk insight on its entire EV fleet

STOCKHOLM, Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The Insurtech company Greater Than is deepening its collaboration with Zurich through an agreement with Onto, the UK's largest all-inclusive electric car subscription service.

We continue to collaborate with Greater Than to advance these goals, as their platform provides shared access to unique risk data, both to us and our customers.", - Says Darren Stoddart, Senior Fleet Underwriter at Zurich.

The EV fleet sends driving data to the Enerfy AI via existing hardware in the cars, transforming every trip's driving data into value added for Onto and Zurich."We are thrilled to further expand our partnership with Zurich through the collaboration with the cutting-edge company Onto. We're looking forward to offering our high-yield risk platform and optimize the fleet for new business opportunities promoting a safer and cleaner road environment.", - Says Johanna Forseke, CBO at Greater Than.
