Strategic technology trends in insurance - Mantra Labs

One of the latest advancements for business development tools is the advent of augmented analytics. As per a report from Deloitte "Augmented analytics marks the next wave of disruption in the data analytics market". It is an approach that automates insights using machine learning and natural language generation. Gartner predicts "by 2020, more than 40% of data science tasks will be automated", resulting in increased productivity and broader use by data scientists. According to Accenture, "1 out of 3 insurers globally now uses Big Data from IoT technologies, such as Fitbit, Samsung Gear or Apple watch to collect lifestyle data from insureds". Augmented Analytics will help reap business value from those data by automating Big Data insights.
