1: Routely is intuitive, it's interactive,
and it can be educational.
2: Routely is telematics in a box.
Easy way to roll out a telematics program within a company.
Provides good feedback and helps us improve our loss ratios.
Having something off the shelf like Arity enables us to roll it out a lot
quicker, just makes a lot more financial sense to us.
We don't just want insurance to be something,
when you buy to look like...to think it's a pain, I got to pay my bill.
It sort of makes it value added. It lets 'em say, "Hey, I can save money,
become a better driver.".
1: We are promoting "safe driving saves," and we're not just focusing on
saving money with the deductible.
We're hoping that we will potentially save lives by making our
drivers, our customers safer drivers on the road.
Hearing the people talk about it so far,
the fact that they're talking about their driving is really a good thing.
They're looking at that going, "Oh, it dinged me for speeding.
I'm going to try to do.
0: Better.".
1: You don't want an app to be annoying to the user because then they'll just turn
it off.
There's a whole team of behavioral scientists with Arity that's working to make
the phone app addictive in a good way.
2: Ultimately, they want to save more money,
so we want to put the things in front of 'em to help 'em become better drivers
so they can save more money. Are they seeing that they're, "Hey,
I'm distracted driving.
I'm speeding." So we wanted to make sure to keep 'em engaged throughout it and
enough to check and say, "Hey, how am I doing?" And encourage them.
That's the reason we originally went with Arity.
The [Drivesight] score that they have is built on billions of miles of actual
insurance data.
1: And in looking at Routely, it's just not the app.
It's also the score that's been developed based on all the data that
Arity has,
and we would not have all that information to build a
score on.
So having the app score just made a completely
turnkey product for us.
The resources that Arity has been able to provide us has been tremendous.
We've had to do training and they provided help with frequently asked questions
and our online training for our agents, steal shots,
screenshots - anything that we needed went great.
2: Well, having a partner like Arity at the beginning did provide a lot of insight
because honestly, without them, a new field like this for us,
we would've just... the learning curve would've been huge.
