Podcasts about Telematics

Introduction In this episode of the Insurtech Leadership Podcast, host Josh Hollander sits down with Gemma Ros, CTO at The Zebra, to unpack their 2026 State of Auto Insurance Report. They explore what's driving premium divergence across states, how affordability pressure is reshaping consumer behavior, and where regulation, loss costs, and distribution dynamics collide. Guest Bio Gemma Ros is CTO at The Zebra, one of the largest insurance comparison platforms in the United States. Born in Spain, Gemma built her career across engineering and data roles before joining The Zebra, where she leads the technology organization responsible for data infrastructure, product engineering, and AI capabilities. She brings a unique perspective as both a technologist and an insurance industry insider who sees real-time consumer shopping behavior at scale. Key Topics • State-by-state premium divergence — Auto insurance premiums are not stabilizing uniformly. Regulatory environments, loss cost trends, and competitive dynamics are creating vastly different realities depending on where you live. • Affordability pressure and coverage erosion — Consumers facing higher premiums are choosing higher deductibles, lower coverages, and state minimums — creating knock-on effects for uninsured/underinsured motorist exposure across the market. • Carrier growth signals in ad spending — When carriers increase advertising, it signals growth appetite and competitive pricing — a cue for consumers to reshop their policies. • Rate filing dynamics — New rates are being filed and going into effect daily, making the market a moving target for both consumers and distribution partners. • Telematics and ADAS impact on underwriting — Usage-based insurance and advanced driver assistance systems are beginning to reshape how risk is priced, though widespread impact is still unfolding. • Autonomous vehicles and insurance implications — The shift from driver liability to product/manufacturer liability as autonomy scales, and what that means for carriers. • Taking AI from fun to material impact — Gemma's 2026 engineering theme: moving AI adoption from experimental to scalable, repeatable, and operationalized across the entire engineering organization. Quotes • "It's never a bad idea to shop around. Educate yourself — you might be leaving money on the table." • "If you start seeing a lot more ads for insurance companies on TV or on podcasts, that's a good time to reshop — the carriers are signaling they want to grow." • "My main theme for 2026 is taking AI from fun to material impact."

Brakes are the final frontier for telematics on Class 8 trucks.But Hendrickson Vehicle Systems is close to a breakthrough that may change the game when it comes to getting real-time brake system information back to fleets.HDT talked to Jeff Moris, director, axle, brake and wheel-end systems at Hendrickson to find out more about how these new telematics technology will work.#HDTTalksTrucking#Class8trucks#truckingsafety#truckbrakesKey takeaways:• Brakes are a harsh environment for electronics, which is why they have been a “last frontier” for heavy-duty telematics.• The bigger brake telematic opportunity for fleets may be with trailers, not tractors.• Disc brakes already have a head start on sensing, including basic wear sensors and more advanced continuous wear monitoring.• The real challenge is bringing meaningful sensing to drum brakes, because drum brakes still dominate U.S. trailers.• Getting the data to the right person fast is as important as sensing it.

-Introduction TomTom isn't just “navigation” anymore. In this episode of the InsurTech Leadership Podcast, Josh Hollander talks with Vinod Poomalai, Head of InsurTech Product Marketing at TomTom, about how insurers are using location, map, and traffic intelligence to improve how they price risk, validate claims, and build telematics programs that actually produce underwriting signal. Guest bio Vinod Pumalai leads go-to-market for TomTom's insurance and InsurTech vertical. His work focuses on helping carriers, brokers, actuaries, and InsurTech teams integrate TomTom's location and traffic data into risk models, pricing engines, and telematics workflows—with a practical emphasis on adoption inside real operating environments. Key topics -From static territories to live location intelligence -Why “territory” is a crude proxy—and how mobility patterns add resolution to risk. -Territory risk models powered by traffic + map data -How insurers use location and traffic attributes to refine pricing and portfolio strategy. -Telematics enablement: APIs, SDKs, and flexible integration -What teams actually plug into, and what the implementation path looks like in practice. -Claims validation and fraud detection using mobility history -Using historical mobility/traffic context to validate events faster and reduce leakage. -Where experimentation becomes operational value -The difference between demos and workflows that move loss ratio outcomes. -What the insurance market is missing in location data -Why the market has been underserved—and what that creates as an opportunity. -Talent and leadership required to make it real -Product, data, and insurance domain collaboration: what “good” looks like inside carriers. Quotes -“The insurance market as a whole is very underserved when it comes to location data, traffic data, and so on.” -“At the end of the day, what our clients really care about… is loss ratios.” -“Customers are leveraging our traffic data in validating auto insurance claims.” Resources -Vinod Poomalai: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vinod-kumar-poomalai/ -TomTom Insurtech: https://www.tomtom.com/solutions/insurtech/ -Joshua Hollander: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshuarhollander/ If you found this useful, subscribe to the InsurTech Leadership Podcast on YouTube and your preferred podcast app. Share the episode with an underwriting, claims, or telematics leader on your team—and leave a review to help more operators find the show.

On the Insurance Coffee House podcast, host Nick Hoadley welcomes Elyse Myrans, CEO & Co-Founder of Tenax ai, a climate-tech startup using computer vision and AI to protect homes and their insurability, from extreme weather.Speaking from Los Angeles, Elyse shares how Tenax ai delivers property-level risk assessments for wildfire, flood and wind in 20–30 minutes via a smartphone or drone, then ingests the imagery through proprietary models to detect hundreds of features (roof class, vegetation proximity, vent mesh, window type and more). She explains why forward-looking, parcel-level data outperforms regional, backward-looking models, and how Tenax ai's outputs plug directly into carrier underwriting workflows (they provide the features and confidence, insurers keep their own pricing).Elyse also highlights the homeowner experience: tailored mitigation plans with prioritised actions and referrals to local vendors, removing “speed bumps to action” so customers can reduce risk, lower premiums over time, and even move properties back inside the band of insurability. She draws a useful analogy to telematics in auto insurance: dynamic, behavior/feature-based data enabling more accurate pricing and better outcomes for both carriers and policyholders.In the Espresso Round, Elyse discusses building a tech-insurance hybrid team, why empathy and trust are non-negotiables in startup culture, and offers candid advice for insurance leaders considering the shift to insurtech: get comfortable with the unknown, stay nimble, and keep your eye on what matters as conditions change.Connect with Elyse Myrans on LinkedIn and learn more about Tenax ai.The Insurance Coffee House Podcast is brought to you by Insurance Search.We are a global Insurance Executive Search Consultancy, supporting Insurance and Insurtech businesses to attract and retain the very best insurance talent.Find out more about showcasing your employer brand as a guest on the Insurance Coffee House Podcast or sign up to our News and Insights.Or follow us on LinkedIn, Twitter or Instagram.Insurance Executive Search Consultants in USA, London and Bermuda.Copyright Insurance Search 2025 - All Rights Reserved.

How can technology revolutionize road safety for the 1.5 billion drivers on the road today? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Hari Balakrishnan and Bill Powers, co-founders of Cambridge Mobile Telematics (CMT), the world's largest telematics service provider. Their unique partnership—blending Hari's engineering genius, honored with the 2023 Marconi Prize, and Bill's entrepreneurial prowess as an “atypical tech CEO”—has built a unicorn company dedicated to making roads safer. We explore how CMT's AI-driven platform, DriveWell®, leverages sensor data from IoT devices like smartphones, dashcams, and connected vehicles to provide a unified view of driver behavior. By collaborating with insurers, automakers, and the public sector, CMT not only assesses risk but actively incentivizes safer driving behaviors, reducing crash rates by up to 20% with some partners. Hari and Bill also delve into the challenges of addressing "phone distraction," which contributes to nearly a third of crashes, and the paradox of advanced safety tech not correlating to fewer accidents. They highlight the importance of improving infrastructure for connected and autonomous vehicles, refining human-machine interfaces, and developing solutions that protect vulnerable road users outside of vehicles. As we unpack the story of how an “odd couple” with complementary skills created a global leader in road safety, we'll also look to the future of mobility and the transformative role technology will play. What does the next generation of driving safety look like, and how can we all contribute to making the roads safer? Tune in to find out, and share your thoughts on the evolving landscape of mobility.

Telematics Data is Reshaping Our Understanding of Road Networks In this episode MIT Professor Hari Balakrishnan explains how Cambridge Mobile Telematics (CMT) is transforming traditional road network analysis by layering dynamic behavioural data onto static map geometries.  Telematics data creates "living maps" that go beyond traditional road geometry and attributes. By collecting movement data from 45 million users through phones and IoT devices, CMT has developed sophisticated models that can: - Generate dynamic risk maps showing crash probability for every road segment globally - Detect infrastructure issues that aren't visible in traditional mapping (like poorly placed bus stops) - Validate and correct map attributes like speed limits and lane connectivity - Differentiate between overpasses and intersections using movement patterns - Create contextual understanding of road segments based on actual usage patterns Particularly interesting for GIS professionals is CMT's approach to data fusion, combining traditional map geometry with temporal movement data to create predictive models. This has practical applications from infrastructure planning to autonomous vehicle navigation, where understanding the cultural context of road usage proves as important as precise geometry. The episode challenges traditional static approaches to road network mapping, suggesting that the future lies in dynamic, behavior-informed spatial data models that can adapt to changing conditions and usage patterns. For anyone working with transportation networks or smart city initiatives, this episode provides valuable insights into how movement data is changing our understanding of road infrastructure and spatial behaviour.   Connect with Hari on LinkedIn! https://www.linkedin.com/in/hari-balakrishnan-0702263/ Cambridge Mobile Telematics https://www.cmtelematics.com/   BTW,  I keep busy creating free mapping tools and publishing them there https://mapscaping.com/map-tools/ swing by and take a look!
