CLSQ wins Innovation of the Year – a win for integrated thinking in property risk
We’re really happy to share the news that CLSQ has been awarded Innovation of the Year – MGA at the 2025 Insurance Times Tech & Innovation Awards.
The award, which was announced at a ceremony in London, recognises not just a single product, but a broader appreciation of how CLSQ approaches property risk – bringing together data, insight and insurance to support faster, more confident decisions in every corner of the market.
From the way lenders assess property value, to how legal professionals manage risk in conveyancing or estate administration, our goal is the same: to simplify complexity, reduce friction, and improve the experience for all involved.
The judges had this to say: "We were particularly impressed with CLSQ. What the business is trying to do to automate the buying and valuation process, backing that with insurance – it is a phenomenal product. CLSQ is standout. We just loved it – the broader impact of this tool at scale is incredibly interesting. It is insurance for good. This is changing the market for customers in a really positive, profound way.”
We couldn’t be more grateful. The award follows strong market momentum for our VerifyQ service, which provides lenders with the UK’s first instant, insured property valuation. By combining advanced data modelling with insurance protection underwritten by Aviva, VerifyQ enables lenders to automate with confidence and scale their decision-making without increasing exposure. In trials, lenders using VerifyQ have seen a meaningful uplift in DIP-to-completion conversions, along with operational efficiency and improved customer experience.
But this win also reflects a bigger story. It marks progress towards a more modern, connected property ecosystem – one where automation doesn’t come at the cost of assurance, and where data-driven services help legal and financial professionals make faster, smarter decisions with the protection they need.
We’re incredibly proud of this achievement, and grateful to our team, clients and insurer partners who continue to challenge the status quo and shape the future with us.
At CLSQ, innovation isn’t confined to one product or one award. It’s embedded in everything we do.
