Tensorflight, an American insurtech start-up, has raised $2m in an investment round led by insurance industry investors HSCM Bermuda and Nephila.

Additional investors who participated in the funding round include ff Venture Capital, Hemi Venture and other investors.

Leveraging machine learning and geospatial imagery, Tensorflight enables property and casualty insurance companies to better assess risks and understand portfolio exposures.

Managed by former Google and Microsoft engineers, Tensorflight intends to use the proceeds to further expand its computer vision risk assessment service for commercial property insurers.

Using satellite images, Tensorflight can automatically evaluate various property attributes, including building footprints, construction type, roof pitch and geometry, and number of stories in minutes. The technology allows insurers to provide quotes based on the best possible information.

Tensorflight co-founder Robert Kozikowski said: “We are excited about continuing our journey of automating commercial property insurance.
