Carpe Data’s technology gives them a meaningful edge.”  

Shapiro’s background in the insurance industry has given him extensive, hands-on expertise in claims innovation.

Through the company’s claims solutions, insurers gain timely access to relevant, publicly available data that surfaces meaningful signals early in the claims process. Today, this approach continues to build on that decade of historical data, providing customers with patterns and insights unmatched by competing claims solutions on the market.
