BOSTON, Sept. 18, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — TrueMotion, the leading provider of telematics solutions for the insurance industry, has been awarded an SMA Innovation In Action Solution Provider Award by Strategy Meets Action (SMA), a leading insurance strategic advisory firm. The award was presented yesterday during the annual SMA Summit.
TrueMotion won a Solution Provider award for its TrueMotion smartphone UBI product, which combines mobile technology, machine learning, and data science to help insurers better understand and mitigate risk, acquire more profitable customers and increase customer loyalty. TrueMotion uses the sensors in a user’s smartphone to accurately identify drivers, and track and score behavior behind the wheel, including distracted driving.
TrueMotion’s mobile app provides actionable feedback to drivers on how to improve, while its analytics provide insurers comprehensive driving activity, individual scores and important insights regarding the risk of their overall customer pool. About 75 percent of people who use the app reduce distracted driving by up to 20 percent.
“It’s an honor to be recognized for the outstanding work our team has put into leveraging the best of data science, mobile technology and product development to produce next generation products and solutions for the insurance industry that are making a difference in the world today,” said Ted Gramer, CEO of TrueMotion. “Despite advances in auto technology, the number of fatalities on our roads is on the rise, and we’re on a mission to reverse that trend through our mobile app that helps people become safer drivers.”
