INSTANDA is a no-code business platform for the insurance industry. It enables insurers to overcome certain drawbacks from legacy IT infrastructure and eases digital transformation.
Tim Hardcastle, INSTANDA founder CEO, said: “The insurance industry has come a long way since the coffee houses of the 17th century, but many insurers are still relying on IT systems that belong in the history books. INSTANDA was born out of a belief that technology should promote innovation, not hinder it. We experienced first-hand how the industry was being held back by monolithic, third-party IT systems that add layers of complexity, cost and confusion, and we wanted to change that.
“Customers increasingly expect more personalised experiences, and with INSTANDA insurers are better equipped to respond to these changing demands. As the industry’s first no code platform to cover all lines of insurance, we’re putting power back into the hands of product and business development teams and offering a seamless pathway towards digital transformation whether via new products or migrating existing books. Today’s fundraising announcement is an important milestone that will help us bring better insurance to more people and businesses around the world.”
Michael Baptista, of Assembly Capital Partners, added: “INSTANDA – unlike most insurtech in the media – is a genuine innovator. The founding team identified a challenging but huge opportunity, has delivered and can now focus on scaling. INSTANDA frees insurers from inflexible legacy tech and from high-risk, high-cost, multi-year change programmes. Its no-code platform liberates insurers. It gives them the agility to price risk in ways that meet client needs in a changing world.
