New Mobile Telematics Platform from Agero

Agero, Inc., a leading provider of roadside assistance and vehicle and driver safety, has announced its mobile usage based insurance (UBI) platform with two new mobile applications: PolicyPal, which tracks driving habits in real-time, and Auto Crash Notification (ACN), which automatically notifies emergency services within moments of an accident occurring.

Agero’s innovative mobile telematics platform provides UBI predictive analytics that uses mobile device sensors on the smartphone to track driver behavior in real-time, such as how often and far a policyholder drives; how hard they brake or accelerate; if they travel during peak urban traffic hours; and more.

By having this data, insurers are able to precisely tailor a driver’s insurance premium to match their specific risk levels.

In addition, using Agero’s ACN technology, the mobile device is able to determine the severity of impact in an incident and can respond by contacting emergency responders, designated personal contacts, and the insurer, while utilizing Agero’s years of experience in Accident Scene Management and proven national network of Service Providers.
