Fuse International, Inc., a company specializing in data-driven solutions for the insurance industry, has launched Radar, an AI-driven market intelligence platform designed to enhance the decision-making capabilities of commercial and specialty insurance professionals.
Fuse International, Inc. developed Radar to give brokers insights into which operators are currently pursuing specific exposures, while enabling operators and managing general agents (MGAs) to identify brokers that are focused on market segments they wish to expand into.
The platform operates through multiple artificial intelligence agents that continuously collect and enrich data from more than 50 sources, integrating it in real time into a proprietary intelligence layer created by Fuse International, Inc. The system takes care of the research, allowing professionals to make informed decisions.
The problem Radar solves is well-known in the industry: Even the most experienced brokers and underwriters spend a lot of time conducting market research, not because of a lack of expertise, but because the right tools don’t exist to match the speed of their judgment.
Brokers often lack understanding of carriers’ changing interests, and carriers have difficulty finding brokers who specialize in the risks they want to underwrite. Fuse International, Inc. recognized this gap and designed Radar to provide a layer of information beyond personal networks to more efficiently connect parties to transactions.
Radar functions through a suite of specialized AI agents that monitor market signals from a variety of sources, including state insurance department filings in all 50 states, carrier interest guides, producer appointments, premium volume reports, syndicate results, corporate financials, turnover and industry news. Fuse International, Inc.’s proprietary artificial intelligence engine harmonizes these sources to produce a unified, up-to-date profile that highlights insights that would take human analysts weeks to uncover.
The platform brings together 20 million data points from more than 5,000 operators, MGAs and brokers to provide intelligence unmatched by traditional directories, spreadsheets or general artificial intelligence. The predictive engine developed by Fuse International, Inc. analyzes every data point through nine analytical lenses, including belief, momentum, market cycles, concentration and contrarian signals, producing constantly refreshing insights rather than static rankings.
For brokers, Radar can understand operators that are aggressively expanding in a client’s specific risk profile and provide AI-ranked recommendations in seconds. Operators and MGAs benefit greatly from being able to identify brokers that specialize in target routes, categories and regions, helping to connect them with distribution partners who can deliver the required business. Both parties can gain early insights into market concentration, competitive changes, and new opportunities before they become widespread.
Founder and CEO Sean Bourgeois commented: “For decades, the answer to ‘Who wrote this venture?’ has been a mystery.” It’s all the same: pick up the phone, connect online, and check out catalogs that are already out of date. This approach does not scale. It doesn’t tell you who’s really growing in a segment, who’s exiting, or where the market is about to turn.
“Radar is different because the data set behind it is different. We don’t require carriers to update profiles. Our proprietary AI agents calculate preferences based on regulatory filings, premium flows, loss ratios, turnover and dozens of other signals – cross-referenced across more than 5,000 carriers and continuously updated. Our predictive engine then analyzes each result through nine proprietary analytical lenses: Momentum, Conviction, Market Cycles, Concentration, Counter-trend Signals. These are AI-generated insights that don’t exist anywhere else.
“We built it for both sides of the transaction. Brokers find the right market in seconds. Operators find the broker that delivers exactly the business they want.”
