Demex is a technology-enabled services company that enables insurance companies to mitigate the economic impacts of climate change. Growing losses from severe weather are making the business model for insurance companies unsustainable. Over the past decade, losses from such events as severe convective storms (SCS), hailstorms, derechos, winter storms, and drought have vastly outpaced damages from traditional catastrophes such as hurricanes, wildfires, and earthquakes. Demex is pioneering a vital transformation in severe weather reinsurance to enable insurers to survive these risks. Our product, Retained Climate Risk Reinsurance (RCR Re), is a groundbreaking reinsurance offering that enables insurance companies to transfer climate risk by modeling, structuring, and settling the accumulation of small- and medium-sized insurance claims that are caused by severe weather. This product is powered by cutting edge technology, sophisticated modeling techniques, and extensive weather risk datasets to perform predictive modeling and risk analysis at scale. Demex launched RCR Re in 2023 and had a breakout year, transacting over $60M in climate risk and building a strong coalition of marketplace partners. Demex’s reinsurance solution for secondary perils won the ‘Insurtech Product of the Year’ at the 2024 Insurance Insider Honors and ‘Innovation in Parametrics (Weather and NatCat - Private Sector) at the global Parametric Insurer Awards 2024.

Datch is a platform that leverages AI to capture highly detailed, structured human-centric data while surfacing asset insights for decision-making and resource management. Our goal is to cut deep into the availability shortfall by providing the data and intelligence needed to decrease asset MTTR, increase MTBF, support better planning and allow for faster decision making. In order to support the asset availability goals across resource management, reporting, planning, scheduling, and reliability, the product is designed around a single value proposition: ”perfect data”. By perfect data, we mean complete, highly accurate, context rich reports coming in from the frontline, and perfect recall and distillation of data to the right people at the right time. Data capture is achieved through a combination of worker enablement capabilities, such as speech-to-text, real-time translation, and conversational AI, and data enrichment, through features that add context and guidance to transform the data as it’s captured. Data accessibility and asset insights are tools that are underpinned by generative search trained on the company’s document management system, work management history, and other language-rich data sources related to assets.
