"Clearspeed has redefined insurance risk assessment through a truly original application of voice analytics technology" that counters fraud and accelerates payments to customers.

Clearspeed’s technology represents a groundbreaking way for businesses and governments to identify individual risk, but at scale, whether it's vetting people or transactions. Initially developed for the U.S. Department of Defense, Clearspeed employs voice analytics in a completely novel way to detect the level of risk in a person’s speech based on vocal characteristics universal to all humans. For insurers, its technology accelerates claims processing and underwriting, expediting service, and combating fraud.

“Clearspeed has redefined insurance risk assessment through a truly original application of voice analytics technology,” said Annabelle Whitall, The Cloud Awards COO. “By tackling the surge in opportunistic fraud with fast, bias-free, and PII-free detection, Clearspeed empowers insurers to accelerate claims, cut investigation costs, and build fairer, more efficient systems. The FinTech Awards are proud to recognize a solution delivering more than 30x ROI and transforming the very foundation of how insurance risk is identified and managed."

"We are honored to be recognized for fundamentally changing how insurers evaluate risk, process claims, and serve their customers, creating a more efficient and equitable system for all stakeholders,” said Alex Martin, CEO of Clearspeed. “We're grateful to our clients who trust us with their business and to the judges who recognized our impact."

Clearspeed adds this accolade to its more than 20 industry awards, including CNBC’s list of the World’s Top InsurTech Companies. Clearspeed works with some of the world’s leading insurance companies, where, on average, insurers experience a 50% reduction in claims handling time and a 40% increase in immediate settlements to claimants, all without compromising customer experience ratings. Headquartered in San Diego, Clearspeed has been deployed in 37 countries and supports 60+ languages, delivering cutting-edge voice-based risk assessment in both commercial and government and defense applications.
