What is C.L.U.E.?

Our Comprehensive Loss Underwriting Exchange (C.L.U.E.®) is a claim history information exchange containing up to seven years of personal automobile claims information. When you submit an inquiry, we match the search criteria and return a C.L.U.E. report that contains vital information about the driver, vehicles, policy and reported claims.

Since its launch in 1987, C.L.U.E.® Auto has helped consumers receive more accurate auto insurance quotes. With leading-edge linking capabilities, an advanced processing platform and continuous innovative enhancements, C.L.U.E. Auto discovers more claims per inquiry than any other available source.

 C.L.U.E. can help you:

Magnifying_glass    Predict loss propensity with more reliable loss history rating information

Target   Rate more accurately with risk segmentation and tier placement 

Stopwatch    Speed up the underwriting process by using a single source of claims information 

You can also leverage C.L.U.E. Auto data when drivers are added to a policy. For example, when a teenager receives their new license or another family member moves in, it is critical to have a view of the entire household of drivers.

  • 23.4% of added drivers have claims activity within the past three years
  • 31.7% of added drivers over the age of 25 have claims activity within the past three years

The lack of a complete picture of claim activity can lead to underpricing risks, even after the first year. It can take weeks, months or even years to process a claim due to pending litigation or supply chain issues. LexisNexis® Active Insights C.L.U.E.® at Renewal proactively notifies you of claims contributed by another insurer which were discovered, updated or closed post-underwriting. This consistent monitoring solution helps close the knowledge gap so that you have the information you need to match the rate to the risk.
