The duuo by Co-operatorsTM brand reflects The Co-operators commitment to working together with clients to provide peace of mind in a way that is easy, fast, fair and affordable – a commitment made possible through the Slice platform.

“We were founded in 1945 by a small group of farmers and social pioneers who found that their needs were not met by traditional insurance offerings, so they found a new way of protecting their financial security in a time of need,” said Rob Wesseling, President and CEO of The Co-operators Group Limited. “Our new business partnership with Slice is the 21st century version of this mindset, it will allow us to meet the underserved insurance needs of Canadians participating in a highly innovative digital economy. Our shared vision of ensuring that everyone can be protected with the most intelligent and customized insurance possible makes this partnership very exciting.”

The Co-operators selected Slice as its insurtech solutions provider because of the ability to develop customized digital insurance products with exceptional customer experiences. Through this partnership Slice will provide The Co-operators with an agile, flexible platform using artificial intelligence and analytics capabilities to create non-traditional on-demand insurance products for customers.

“Consumer expectations continue to evolve in Canada alongside rapid technology advancement,” said Tim Attia, CEO, Slice Labs Inc. “Our business partnership has the potential to continue to foster change in Canadian lives on the scale of what The Co-operators first achieved over 70 years ago, but at a faster rate due to Slice’s technology, which is also proudly developed by Canadians in Ottawa.”

Slice ICS is fully embeddable via API and includes pricing, rating, licensing, real-time and automated underwriting, servicing, and capacity.
