Quote with the field's history.And the hail, before the application.

The broker marks the field and your company's quoting tool already knows its area, each season's crop, and whether a front passed over it last night. You set the rate.

Two requests, the same piece

Faster, without quoting blind.They asked for it this way.

Quote faster

Fewer steps, less data to enter and an answer on the spot, without losing quality in the risk assessment.

What the broker types today, and what arrives on its own:

  • Area
  • District
  • Each season's crop
  • Recent storms
  • Prior damage
  • Rate and adjustment

Struck-through items arrive prefilled. The rate and adjustment stay with your company.

Adverse selection

If a front passed through last night and an application drawn there comes in today, an alert lights up while the broker draws the field. Not ten days later, with the claim.

Adverse selection is stopped at the application. Before issuing, not at the adjustment.

Before or after?

The storm's date against the policy start date.Both ends of adverse selection.

Ucotron knows when the front passed over each place. With that, it flags an application that arrives after the event and a claim on a policy issued a few days before.

  1. At the application

    23:40A front with electrical activity passes over the area.
    The next day, 10:02The broker draws a field there: the alert lights up and the application goes to the underwriter.
  2. At the claim

    Day −5Policy issued.
    Day +4The claim comes in: policy issued five days before the storm. The loss adjuster goes in alert, with both dates.

Yes

A drop in greenness is visible after the front.

It doesn't quote on its own: the application goes to the underwriter with the before and after.

No

The field's greenness followed its usual curve.

It quotes with your company's rate and adjustment, and the reason is on record.

Can't be seen

There are clouds, or the soil doesn't have greenery yet.

It gives no opinion: it quotes without adjustment and flags the field for inspection. “Can't be seen” is not “didn't happen.”

It never rejects an application on its own. It flags, shows the evidence, and routes to a person.

27 seasons

A field in Pergamino, from 1999/00 to 2025/26.Each year's crop, without asking anyone.

The field's greenness fortnight by fortnight, with Landsat since 1999 and Sentinel-2 since 2017. The shape of the curve gives each season's likely crop. Step through each year.

Against the neighbors

The field, next to those planting the same thing.Not against the zone average.

The likely crop of each 30 m pixel around the field. That way the field is compared with its neighbors of the same crop, season by season, and not with the rate of an entire zone.

  • Same crop, same season. Corn is compared with corn.
  • Non-agricultural land is left out. Towns, roads, and low-lying areas don't count.
  • With the source and the date. Every number says which satellite it comes from.

Back to your quoting tool

The data goes into your system.The price stays yours.

Via API, inside your quoting tool, or via WhatsApp for the broker. Ucotron returns the measured field and the answer to the prior-damage check. Your company sets the rate, the adjustment, and the rule for what's accepted and what's referred.

What it brings

  • Field area and county
  • Likely crop of each season, with its confidence
  • Recent storms and lightning from the past week
  • Prior damage: yes, no, or can't be seen, with the image

What it doesn't

  • A risk score from 0 to 100
  • The rate or the price
  • Hail before the data exists: each source starts in its own year, and satellite lightning in 2018
