Parisian InsurTech Akur8 has expanded its strategic relationship with professional services firm RSM US LLP, with RSM adopting the Akur8 Discover platform across its North American operations.
The enterprise rollout will see RSM extend its use of Akur8’s pricing and reserving solutions while integrating Discover to support regulatory and actuarial services for insurance and financial services clients across the US and Canada.
Risk & Regulatory Consulting (RRC), an RSM-affiliated consultancy focused on compliance and examinations, will also use the platform to support regulatory advisory engagements for insurers and state regulatory agencies.
RSM provides advisory, actuarial, compliance and risk management services across the insurance and financial services sectors, working with carriers, MGAs, reinsurers and regulators. Practices span pricing, reserving, capital modelling, compliance examinations and regulatory affairs, helping insurers navigate market volatility, regulatory scrutiny and emerging technology developments.
Through the expanded collaboration, RSM is repositioning its actuarial and regulatory advisory practice around structured data, automation and AI-enabled insight, moving beyond traditional compliance support toward predictive regulatory strategy.
Akur8 Discover converts unstructured regulatory filings into structured, searchable intelligence by extracting data from publicly available sources including SERFF and state-level filings.
The platform provides searchable insights into regulatory developments and market activity, enabling actuaries and consultants to benchmark filings, monitor rate movements and analyse market trends across personal and commercial lines.
Discover is now embedded across RSM’s insurance and regulatory consulting teams, transforming thousands of pages of rate and rule filings into standardised market intelligence while institutionalising regulator insight as a firmwide capability.
RSM’s wider adoption builds on its initial deployment of the platform in November 2025 and reflects its broader strategy to modernise actuarial and regulatory workflows while strengthening its advisory services for insurers in North America.
The platform also supports analysis across the highly fragmented US regulatory landscape, where filings across 50 state jurisdictions create significant volume, variation and complexity for insurers and regulators.
Capabilities available to RSM and RRC through Akur8 Discover include searching rate and rule filings across all US states, normalising carrier filings for cross-market benchmarking, detecting regulatory changes and rate movements across jurisdictions, mapping rating factors and territories across insurers, and producing evidence-based insights for advisory and regulatory examination engagements.
These functions allow RSM teams to deliver faster and more data-backed recommendations to insurers and regulatory stakeholders navigating increasingly complex regulatory environments.
The expanded use of Akur8 Discover builds on a broader collaboration between the two firms. RSM previously selected Akur8 to enhance its pricing and reserving processes, creating a combined framework spanning actuarial modelling, regulatory intelligence and market analysis.
Samuel Falmagne, CEO of Akur8, said: “RSM and RRC are trusted advisors to insurers and regulators throughout North America. Their commitment to innovation across pricing, reserving and compliance aligns closely with our mission, and we are proud to deepen our collaboration as they expand their advisory capabilities with Akur8 Discover. RSM’s decision to move to enterprise-wide use also underscores the growing demand for structured regulatory intelligence in North America.”
David Mamane, Partner and P&C Actuarial Services Leader at RSM, said: “The insurance regulatory landscape in the US has entered a new era of volume and complexity. Navigating SERFF and state filing workflows with traditional manual methods simply does not scale. Akur8 Discover empowers our teams to instantly extract, compare and contextualise regulatory information across states and carriers, which fundamentally enhances how we advise clients on compliance, pricing strategy and market positioning. For insurers in the US and Canada, particularly those with limited historical data in emerging products or niche segments, this level of visibility enables more credible pricing models and more informed strategic decisions.”
Sergey Filimonov, Head of Applied AI at Akur8 and Co-founder of Matrisk AI, said: https://www.akur8.com/“RSM began with a focused pilot, and we watched a small group of early users become power users as they proved the value in real engagements. That success drove the move to enterprise adoption. It’s been particularly validating to see experienced filings professionals, people who already know SERFF inside and out, consistently uncover new context and accelerate their work with Discover.”
