Ascend

<div>
 What We Do
 
 
 Ascend is transforming the $10 trillion global insurance industry by combining AI automation with embedded fintech.
 
 
 While insurance represents 7.2% of global GDP, outdated financial infrastructure like PDFs, emails, and manual reconciliation continues to slow the industry down. Ascend is the first and market-leading finance automation platform built specifically for insurance, driving the industry's rapid digital transformation.
 
 
 In just three years:
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>

However, businesses must also maximize monetization, and the future belongs to those that embed themselves into financial flows rather than simply selling SaaS.
 
 
 That's why AI + fintech is our edge&mdash;seamlessly integrating financial automation into transactions to create real, lasting value. Customers don't just buy software; they unlock powerful financial efficiencies with a 5&ndash;7x ROI.
 
 
 Why We Do It
 
 
 Insurance is a $10 trillion-plus industry running on legacy systems. AI alone won't fix it, but AI-powered automation embedded into payments and transactions will.
