This unique approach allows the company to determine the validated age of each roof with over 90 percent accuracy and nearly 100 percent coverage across the contiguous US.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">\u201cAccurate roof age information is critical for properly assessing and pricing risk,\u201d said Hank Narvaez, Vice President of Personal Lines Product Development at Donegal. \u201cZestyAI\u2019s Roof Age solution was a clear choice for us due to its solid coverage length of historical imagery. By leveraging both building permit data and aerial imagery, we gain added confidence in our underwriting and rating decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">\u00a0<\/span>\u201cBlind spots in assessing property risk can be very costly for insurers,\u201d said Attila Toth, Founder and CEO of ZestyAI.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cRoof claims stand as the primary driver of insurance losses, yet many carriers continue to rely on unvalidated roof age information. We are excited to partner with Donegal to enhance their risk assessment with the most accurate roof age solution on the market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u00a0Roof Age is one part of a complete range of ZestyAI products designed to evaluate roof-related risk.
