The insurance industry is one of the slower moving industries in the world; aside from the increased variety of insurance products, little has changed in terms of how consumers purchase insurance now and how they did 20 years ago. Targeting market pain points, Lydia.AI leverages AI and global health data, establishing a risk scoring engine that generates an accurate and precise rating of one's overall health. With the right combination of AI engine and multiple APIs, Health Score can be used as widely as financial credit scores, with the goal of ensuring the next billion people around the world and protecting their "health" and "prosperity".

In 2023, MetLife announced Lydia.AI as one of the top three winners of its Collab 6.0 program among 70 other startups from across 9 countries. At the same time, Taiwan Life, which has implemented Lydia.AI's AI Health Score App, has become the first Taiwanese insurance company to win the Data, Analytics, and AI Award since the inception of the CELENT Awards. Tune in to this episode to gain fascinating insights into the world of healthcare industry and the remarkable journey of Anthony and Christina, co-founders of Lydia.AI.
