How Preventive Maintenance Makes Hidden Risks Visible
<p>Neglected maintenance of commercial properties is one of the largest and most overlooked challenges in the insurance and property sectors, with a strong correlation to eventual insurance claims. Yet trillions of dollars in property assets are being managed with spreadsheets and sticky notes, according to Jon DeWald, CEO and co-founder of HelixIntel.</p><p><br></p><p>Jon explains how this lack of digital infrastructure creates "invisible risk" that compounds into costly, preventable insurance claims. For example, a small roof penetration after a hailstorm, left uninspected by maintenance teams, becomes water intrusion, then structural damage, then a full roof replacement. "That minor repair, which would have cost you maybe fifty or a hundred dollars, you're now replacing a full roof," he said. That pattern, small and preventable problems compounding into major losses, is what HelixIntel is built to interrupt.</p><p><br></p><p>Among the topics discussed in this episode: </p><ul><li>The Direct Link Between Maintenance and Claims</li><li>Why HelixIntel Chose the Insurance Ecosystem</li><li>New Visibility for Underwriters and Risk Managers</li><li>Shifting from Reactive to Preventive Maintence</li><li>The "Silver Tsunami" of Retiring Maintenance Workers</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Resources:</strong></p><p><br></p><p>HelixIntel: <a href="https://helixintel.com/" target="_blank">https://helixintel.com/</a></p><p><br></p><p>The Institutes: <a href="https://web.theinstitutes.org/" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">https://web.theinstitutes.org/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Predict & Prevent website: <a href="https://www.predictandprevent.org/" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">https://www.predictandprevent.org/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Sign up for our weekly Predict & Prevent newsletter: <a href="https://www.predictandprevent.org/newsletter/" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">https://www.predictandprevent.org/newsletter/</a></p><p><br></p>

Hidden Connections That Can Turn Risk Into Catastrophe
<p>The global conversation on climate risk is heavily skewed toward decarbonization and net zero. While mitigating future climate damage is critical, that focus often overshadows an equally urgent challenge: surviving the climate reality we already live in.</p><p><br></p><p>Moustafa Naiem, founder and CEO of Resiliocs Intelligence, helps institutional asset owners move beyond risk scores to understand what their climate exposures will actually cost — and which adaptation investments will reduce them most.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Resources:</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Resiliocs Intelligence: <a href="https://resiliocs.com/" target="_blank">https://resiliocs.com/</a></p><p><br></p><p>The Institutes: <a href="https://web.theinstitutes.org/" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">https://web.theinstitutes.org/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Predict & Prevent website: <a href="https://www.predictandprevent.org/" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">https://www.predictandprevent.org/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Sign up for our weekly Predict & Prevent newsletter: <a href="https://www.predictandprevent.org/newsletter/" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">https://www.predictandprevent.org/newsletter/</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Drawing on a Ph.D. in resilience prediction, digital twin research at Cambridge, and consulting at KPMG, Moustafa explains why existing tools fall short. He points to a striking imbalance: roughly five dollars are spent on climate mitigation for every one on adaptation — a gap with consequences ranging from insurers exiting markets to displaced residents.</p><p><br></p><p>The conversation covers Resiliocs' "spatial twin" approach — delivering the predictive power of digital twins without expensive sensor networks, using satellite data and climate modeling instead. Moustafa also reframes Black Swan events as cascading system-wide failures, not simply high-intensity storms — a distinction the company's models are built to capture.</p>

Turning Water Damage Prevention Into a Trust Business
<p>A surprisingly overlooked problem in water leak prevention takes center stage in this episode: getting smart water devices installed is only half the battle.</p><p><br></p><p>Paul Vacquier, founder and CEO of Beagle Services Inc., shares his unconventional path from practicing law in California to building the insurance go-to-market strategy for Flo by Moen — and ultimately launching Beagle to address a critical gap he discovered along the way. With an estimated 30 to 50% of installed smart water valves sitting offline at any given time, homeowners and insurers may be operating under a false sense of security. Paul illustrates the stakes with a $900,000 claim that traced back to a single unplugged valve.</p><p><br></p><p>The conversation covers Beagle's full-stack service model, featuring employed (not contracted) technicians, ongoing device monitoring, and its Watchdog platform, which proactively reaches out to homeowners with offline devices ahead of severe weather events.</p><p><br></p><p>The episode also explores the broader shift underway in insurance, where carriers are beginning to require smart water devices as a condition of coverage, and where agents are evolving from price-shoppers into genuine risk advisors, helping craft mitigation strategies tailored to a client's specific exposures.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Resources:</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Beagle Services: <a href="https://www.beagleservices.com/" target="_blank">https://www.beagleservices.com/</a></p><p><br></p><p>The Institutes: <a href="https://web.theinstitutes.org/" target="_blank">https://web.theinstitutes.org/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Predict & Prevent website: <a href="https://www.predictandprevent.org/" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">https://www.predictandprevent.org/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Sign up for our weekly Predict & Prevent newsletter: <a href="https://www.predictandprevent.org/newsletter/" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">https://www.predictandprevent.org/newsletter/</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
