Mphasis, an IT solutions provider specialising in cloud and cognitive services, has announced a strategic partnership with US and UK-based AI underwriting firm Sixfold to integrate its platform into insurers’ operations through Mphasis’ implementation capabilities.

This collaboration is designed to accelerate submission intake, enhance underwriting speed, and equip underwriters with contextualised risk insights—enabling them to make quicker, more accurate decisions, according to FF News.

Mphasis will act as an implementation partner, embedding Sixfold’s AI technology within the underwriting ecosystems of insurers across various segments including Life & Disability, Commercial P&C & Specialty, and Reinsurance.

The partnership promises to cut review times by more than half and increase Gross Written Premium (GWP) per underwriter by enabling smarter and faster risk selection—without compromising accuracy.

Mphasis, headquartered in India, delivers next-generation IT solutions globally, with a focus on cloud services and AI-powered business transformations. Its insurance technology division, Mphasis.ai, brings deep domain knowledge and technical expertise that makes it well-suited to implement and scale advanced underwriting tools.

Sixfold, operating across the US and UK, offers an AI-driven platform tailored for underwriters. Its solution integrates directly into insurers’ existing workflows and adapts to their unique risk appetites. Already in use by top-tier carriers, the platform offers context-aware recommendations aligned with each insurer’s underwriting rules, eliminating inefficiencies while boosting precision and confidence in decision-making.

This collaboration underscores the growing importance of AI in reshaping insurance underwriting, a field historically hampered by manual processes and time-consuming risk assessments. The integration of Sixfold’s platform via Mphasis promises to bring insurers closer to digital maturity and operational excellence.

Mphasis chief solutions officer Srikumar Ramanathan said, “Mphasis is excited to partner with Sixfold to accelerate AI adoption in the insurance industry. By leveraging Sixfold’s AI expertise in combination with expertise from Mphasis.ai and our insurance technology capabilities, we are able to deliver advanced, data-driven automation solutions for global insurers, driving efficiency, accuracy, and innovation across the insurance value chain.”

Sixfold founder & CEO Alex Schmelkin said, “Sixfold was built to solve real problems for underwriters—and to make the entire process better for brokers and customers. That means making implementation simple and fast. Mphasis has a great track record of getting technology live inside real-world insurance workflows. With them, insurers can move quickly, see impact fast, and do it all without adding extra work to their teams. That’s a win for everyone involved.”
