Cytora and Treefera bring crop data to insurance risk

Cytora

Cytora, the digital risk processing platform, has announced a strategic partnership with Treefera, an AI-powered first-mile intelligence platform, to embed granular agricultural and nature-based asset data directly into commercial insurance underwriting workflows.

The integration gives commercial insurers direct access to Treefera’s intelligence portfolio within Cytora’s ingestion and digitisation workflows, enabling underwriters to enrich risk submissions with near real-time signals covering soil moisture, water stress, crop health, and land-use change.

By delivering plot-level insights within the Cytora platform, insurers can move away from static assumptions and regional proxies, giving them the ability to more accurately assess how weather and climate volatility affect land performance and agricultural output. This supports more precise risk pricing and capital allocation across commodities, locations, and time horizons.

Cytora, which leverages agentic AI to improve performance, efficiency, and explainability in risk assessment and underwriting, has been building out what it describes as one of the world’s most comprehensive data ecosystems for insurers. The Treefera collaboration is the latest in a series of integration partnerships, following a major collaboration with Chubb and a period of sustained platform development.

Treefera is an AI-driven platform that provides financial-grade risk analysis and proprietary intelligence on soft and agricultural commodities, focusing on supply conditions and origination-level risk visibility.

Cytora chief operating officer Juan de Castro said: “Environmental and climate volatility are increasingly critical factors in commercial underwriting. Through our partnership with Treefera, we are making it easier for insurers to embed highly granular, first-mile intelligence directly into their workflows. This empowers underwriters to make smarter, faster pricing and risk selection decisions with unparalleled visibility into plot-level risks.”

Treefera CRO and co-founder Caroline Grey said: “Soft and agricultural commodities underpin half of the global economy, yet there is often a lack of visibility into supply conditions and risks at the point of origin. By integrating our proprietary AI and financial-grade risk analysis into Cytora’s advanced platform, we are helping insurers replace regional proxies with plot-level insight in near real-time so they can accurately price risk and build resilience in an increasingly volatile world.”
