Benchmark Overview
Benchmark® provides natural hazard analysis reports from weather events in near real time, including property-specific date of loss and history analysis for hail – delivered to you in the Verisk platforms you use today, including Xactimate, and XactAnalysis.
With Benchmark you can:
Based on XactAnalysis data, 30% of hail-related claims list inaccurate dates of loss, often leading to non-catastrophe claims classification and costing millions in lost reinsurance recoveries.
You can order Benchmark reports for hail, straight line wind, hurricane wind, and lightning strikes.
Incorporating advanced environmental data paired with sophisticated proprietary algorithms, hail reports offer a detailed view of hail data and future hail probability. Aided by specific data like hail size and wind speed at the property and surrounding 5 miles, adjusters can verify severe weather and events that have occurred at and around the loss site.
