We are delighted to announce a significant milestone that underscores Chimnie's impact on the UK's insurance sector: securing not one, but two highly prestigious industry accolades. This double recognition firmly validates our mission to establish Chimnie as the UK's single source of truth for property data, delivering smarter, fairer property insights to the insurance industry.
Chimnie has been honoured with:
'Insurance Technology Launch of the Year' at The Insurance Post's British Insurance Technology Awards (BITA).
'Insurance Startup Award' at The Insurance Times' Tech & Innovation Awards.
Recognising Transformative Innovation and Commercial Impact
The ‘Insurance Technology Launch of the Year’ award acknowledges an outstanding insurance technology-related platform deployment over the last two years. This win is a powerful recognition of the successful rollout of our proprietary property intelligence platform, which is actively redefining how insurers price and underwrite residential and commercial risk.
Concurrently, the ‘Insurance Startup Award’ specifically celebrates innovative startups making a significant, positive, and measurable impact on the UK insurance sector. The judging panels for both awards placed a strong emphasis on several core criteria:
Unique Data Utilisation: Our unparalleled capability to fuse hundreds of diverse datasets into a single, comprehensive, and updated model of British property.
Technological Innovation: Our commitment to cutting-edge technology to achieve property-level precision, moving far beyond the limitations of outdated postcode averages.
A Compelling Vision: Our clear commitment to building the future of transparent, accountable, and highly accurate property data.
Fuelling the Next Phase of Our Journey
These awards are more than trophies - they validate our approach and the value we deliver every day. They acknowledge the hard work of the entire Chimnie team and, critically, the tangible value we are delivering to our clients every day. Our platform empowers clients to achieve faster underwriting cycles, significantly reduce mispriced risks, and ultimately build fairer, more competitive pricing models.
This landmark double win injects considerable momentum into the next stage of our journey. As the UK's single source of truth for property data, we remain committed to relentless platform refinement, strategically broadening our data coverage, and staying true to our core mandate: to provide the smartest data for the fairest and fastest decisions in insurance.
"Receiving two awards of this calibre is a tremendous honour. It highlights the real commercial impact our platform is delivering for clients and serves as a fantastic motivator for the entire team. We set out to solve a fundamental data transparency problem in insurance, and these wins confirm we are on the right path."
— Jon Francis, Founder & CEO
We look forward to leveraging this success and continuing to partner with the UK’s most forward-thinking and data-driven insurers.
