EmberThreat has been incorporated into the risk assessment process by seven major insurers, including StateFarm, forming a closed-loop "assessment-improvement-benefit" model: homeowners can receive up to $25% in premium reductions for completing specified improvements after submitting an assessment report. Actuarial data showed that the system reduced policy claims by 37%, making it a recommended tool for insurance regulation in 11 western states. The insurer also utilized the group risk assessment function to create community heat maps to guide the allocation of disaster prevention grants.
In terms of business value extensions, the tool developer has initiated two value-added services: 1) professional certification services (issuing NFPA certification badges for properties that have completed all renovations, adding 3-5% to the value of the property); and 2) fireproof landscaping (connecting with the Landscape Architects Association to provide a paid remodeling solution). These expansions have boosted platform ARPU from $9.99 to $49/month, with an estimated market size of $420M by 2025.
