Guidewire, a software company specialising in the property and casualty (P&C) insurance sector, has named Shift Technology as its partner for decisioning solutions for the insurance industry.
This partnership aims to integrate Shift’s AI-powered fraud detection technology with Guidewire’s solutions to enhance efficiency and productivity for claims handlers.

By GlobalData“Over the past five years of collaboration between Guidewire and Shift, Shift was among the first to develop a cloud-based integration and has been an influential resource as we develop the fraud module for Guidewire Autopilot Workflow Service.”
Shift Technology global head of partnerships Drew Whitmore said: “In deepening our relationship, we can continue to meet the evolving needs of insurers around the world and improve the claims process through the integration of two of the P&C insurance industry’s leading solutions.”
Shift joined the Guidewire PartnerConnect programme as a Solution partner in 2019.
In early 2020, the Shift Claims Fraud Detection Add-on for ClaimCenter was published in the Guidewire Marketplace.
The integration allowed insurance professionals to receive real-time alerts in their ClaimCenter environment, facilitating quick, accurate and fair claims decisions, the company noted.
Last month, Guidewire participated in the Series A funding round of Pinpoint Predictive, a risk assessment platform for P&C insurers.
In November 2023, Swiss Re Reinsurance Solutions partnered with Guidewire to create a more interconnected insurance industry through technology, aiming to streamline operations between risks, customers, reinsurance companies and brokers.
