CrashBay Named Finalist in Guidewire’s InsurPitch 2025
We’re excited to share that CrashBay has been named a finalist in Guidewire Software’s InsurPitch—a prestigious insurtech showcase taking place at Guidewire Connections Toronto on September 11, 2025.
As the first digital repair marketplace purpose-built for the insurance industry, this recognition is a major milestone for our team—and a sign that the industry is ready for change.
“We built CrashBay to solve a problem that’s been ignored for too long—how claims actually get done,” said John Harvey, Founder & CEO of CrashBay. “Being selected by Guidewire is validation that the industry is ready for real, scalable change. We’re honored to be part of this moment—and we’re just getting started.”
What Is Guidewire’s InsurPitch?
Hosted by Guidewire Software, a global leader in insurance platform technology, InsurPitch highlights top emerging companies that are driving innovation in the property and casualty (P&C) insurance space.
Out of hundreds of applicants across North America, CrashBay was selected as a finalist based on our potential to transform the auto physical damage (APD) claims experience—a space where innovation is urgently needed.
Why This Matters
The collision repair process has remained largely unchanged for decades. It’s slow, disconnected, and creates friction for everyone involved—carriers, repair shops, fleets, and policyholders.
CrashBay is changing that.
As a fully integrated digital repair marketplace, we help carriers modernize their DRP networks, give shops access to high-quality volume, and improve the overall experience for drivers.
What Makes CrashBay Different:
- 🚗 Built for insurance – We’re not retrofitting a B2C product—we started with carrier needs first
- 📈 Data-driven outcomes – Performance visibility at every step
- 🔁 Scalable infrastructure – Built to reduce cycle time, leakage, and complexity
- 🛠 Real support for repair shops – Better tools, better jobs, better outcomes
