Case Study: Ki Insurance achieves rapid digital insurance platform growth with Looker

Ki Reinventing commercial insurance with algorithmic underwriting

Ki Insurance set out to redefine commercial insurance for the digital era as the first fully digital, algorithmically driven Lloyd’s of London syndicate. Its challenge was to launch a modern, scalable platform that could give brokers quotes in seconds rather than days while operating in a complex, highly regulated market. Ki partnered with Looker as part of its Google Cloud-based stack, alongside tools like Google Kubernetes Engine and BigQuery.

Looker helped Ki build a data-led foundation for faster underwriting, better portfolio insights, and stronger governance. The solution supported a fully digital platform launched in under six months, reduced model training and retraining effort by up to 90%, and provided an audit trail to trace dataflows. With Looker and the broader Google Cloud platform, Ki Insurance accelerated growth and enabled more rapid, data-driven decision-making.
