Partnering with the internationally acclaimed USW Centre of Excellence in Mobile and Emerging Technology (CEMET), Driverly Insurance has developed the UK’s first AI-powered risk map that combines real-world driving conditions and accident data with driver and vehicle profiling. This ground-breaking work supports Driverly’s mission to deliver safer UK roads whilst rewarding good driving behaviours.
Cardiff-based Driverly, provider of a unique, app-based car insurance service, is delighted to announce the results of its pioneering collaboration with University of South Wales’s Centre of Excellence in Mobile and Emerging Technology (CEMET) in delivering a world first in driving insurance technology.
The Driverly app monitors and records dozens of different driving criteria for users to build an accurate picture of their driving habits, which can directly benefit users financially. Driverly has now added further layers to its tech offering, thanks to the brilliant specialists at CEMET. As well as recording driving behaviour, the enhanced app can also draw on accident profiling of all the major roads in the UK, combined with real-time weather forecasts to build an AI-powered view of real-world driving conditions, thereby building a risk profile with a level of detail not seen before.
Nestor Alonso, Chief Data Officer at Driverly, worked closely with the CEMET experts on this ground-breaking collaboration and commented:
For the CEMET specialists, working on Driverly’s project provided new challenges to their expertise.
The Driverly Insurance app is free to download through iOS App Store and Google Play for users interested in understanding how improved driving behaviour can reduce premiums and secure additional rewards.
