Learn what property-level intelligence reveals that community scores never could.

Non-weather fires cost the industry $25B in annual losses.

Claim severity is up 43%.

Yet most carriers are still assessing the risk with tools designed to measure how fast trucks arrive, not whether a fire starts.

Why Non-Weather Fire Is Difficult to Assess — and Easy to Miss

High severity, low visibility

At an average of $173K per claim, non-weather fire hits harder than any other peril. Yet most of the risk never shows up in loss history, leaving carriers exposed without knowing it.

How carriers are incorporating these signals into underwriting, pricing, and portfolio strategy — including a live look at Z-SPARK

A structural data gap

Much of this risk isn’t visible in claims data, and community-level scores treat neighboring properties as identical risks. They're not.

Portfolio impact

Bad risks enter quietly. By the time they surface, the loss in unrecoverable.
