Heffernan Insurance expands partnership with TrustLayer
Heffernan Insurance announced a partnership with TrustLayer , to allow customers to access TrustLayer’s AI-powered collaborative risk management platform.
TrustLayer will enable faster and more efficient proof of insurance verification and help Heffernan customers better manage their risk by using its digital solution. The startup uses robotic process automation (RPA) and AI to automate this process securely, so companies can automatically verify the insurance and licenses of their vendors, suppliers, borrowers, and tenants. Further TrustLayer is building connectivity to systems of record to allow for truly validating whether coverage is in force.
Heffernan Insurance is also an investor in TrustLayer, participating in the startup’s $6.6 million seed funding, announced in 2021.
“Our focus at TrustLayer is to help relieve risk management pain points and reduce friction for businesses across the entire economy. This partnership with Heffernan Insurance Brokers will help reduce risk and create a more efficient verification process for them and their customers. Modern risk managers are pushing the industry forward with their innovative spirit. These are the forward-leaning professionals that we’re building TrustLayer for. The Heffernan team certainly embodies that belief and I look forward to working with them as we drive innovation across the insurance industry and improve the risk transaction experience for all involved.” – John Fohr, co-founder and CEO of TrustLayer.
