Introducing Stand Labs: Pioneering Science, Insights, and Solutions for a Changing World
At Stand Insurance, our mission has always been to go beyond traditional approaches to risk and protection. We are thrilled to announce Stand Labs—our dedicated platform for scientific research, industry insights, and best practices in wildfire mitigation and property protection.
Why Stand Labs?
Wildfires and other climate-driven perils are reshaping the landscape of property insurance. As these risks evolve, so must our understanding of how to mitigate and insure against them. Unfortunately, much of the industry remains reliant on broad, location-based risk models that fail to account for the nuances of individual properties.
This gap inspired Stand Labs. We believe that solving the toughest challenges in property insurance requires bringing together the latest science, technology, and data to empower homeowners, improve community resilience, and transform the way insurers approach risk.
What You’ll Find Here
At Stand Labs, we aim to share:
Cutting-Edge Research: Dive into our findings on wildfire dynamics, property-level risk modeling, and emerging technologies.
Mitigation and Community-Development Best Practices: Learn how specific measures—like defensible space, roofing materials, and window placement—can dramatically enhance a home’s survivability.
Industry Insights: Gain a behind-the-scenes look at the intersection of science and insurance, and how innovations are reshaping this critical industry.
By opening our playbook, we hope to spark conversations and foster collaboration across industries to build a safer, more sustainable future.
Transforming Risk with Physics-Based Modeling
At the heart of Stand Labs is our pioneering work in physics-based risk modeling. Unlike traditional models, which lump properties into broad categories, our approach evaluates individual homes based on their unique features, surroundings, and vulnerability to wildfire.
This involves creating digital twins—virtual replicas of real-world properties—and running simulations to assess how factors like embers, wind, and heat interact with specific structures. The result? Actionable, property-specific insights that empower homeowners to make informed decisions while also helping insurers accurately price and underwrite risk.
By treating each property as unique, Stand Labs incentivizes proactive mitigation and supports community-wide resilience.
Our Commitment to Innovation
Stand Labs is more than a research hub; it’s a commitment to innovation and transparency. From leveraging remote sensing and 3D modeling to exploring new ways to protect homes in high-risk areas, our team of scientists, engineers, and industry experts is relentless in its pursuit of solutions.
This commitment isn’t just about insurance; it’s about helping people thrive in the face of a changing climate. It’s about rethinking what’s possible in wildfire mitigation and creating a future where risk is something we manage together—not something we fear.
