At InsTech, we love featuring founders who took matters into their own hands to solve the problems they encountered. This episode shines a spotlight on one such entrepreneur who did just that. In the insurance industry, manually cleaning data remains a costly and time-consuming challenge. To explore this issue, Matthew Grant sits down with Nicola Turner, CEO and Co-founder of Scrub AI. Scrub AI is a platform that automates repetitive data cleaning tasks—a solution born from Nicola's own experience as an underwriter struggling with inefficient processes. Key talking points include: Nicola’s journey from underwriter to ‘accidental’ entrepreneur How identifying a persistent problem led to a solution The challenges and successes of raising funding for a tech start-up Why data management remains such a significant issue in the insurance sector The role of AI, machine learning, and technology in transforming data processes Insights on working with co-founders and finding the right partners Balancing the demands of start-up life with personal well-being If you would like to hear more about entrepreneurs, raising funding and founding a company, listen to episode 317 with Marcus Ryu, Partner at Battery Ventures and Chairman at Guidewire.  If you like what you’re hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Matthew Grant on LinkedIn.
