DAS (Digital Agriculture Services) has been awarded Excellence in Insurtech at the 2025 Finnies, hosted by FinTech Australia.
This award recognises DAS’s impact in transforming how rural insurance is priced and underwritten, with climate data for decision making a central theme.
DAS puts advanced geospatial intelligence, climate data, and machine learning into insurers' hands, enabling smarter and more resilient decision-making at the asset and portfolio scale.
“Rural insurance is a bedrock of a healthy financial system and strong regional communities. If a rural property can’t be insured, it can’t be financed, with insurability a precondition for credit, investment, and long-term viability," said DAS CEO and Co-Founder Anthony Willmott.
DAS' Underwriting workflow tools enables insurers to confidently underwrite rural assets by delivering the insights they need to improve quoting, reduce premium and claims leakage, help their clients mitigate risk, meet increasing regulatory requirements and reduce their cost to serve.
DAS' Portfolio Management tool allows insurers to simplify risk selection, improve pricing accuracy and respond swiftly to climate events. From near real-time fire and flood monitoring, chronic climate risk data, crop productivity, and automated asset mapping, DAS clarifies complexity and supports insurers in taking action confidently.
“This award is recognition of the value we’re delivering in one of the most complex and important sectors of the economy,” said DAS CEO and Co-Founder Anthony Willmott.
“Building technology for the insurance sector isn’t just about risk management, it’s about enabling the competitive advantage of the rural sector and ensuring it is investable in the years to come,” he said.
