The platform turns fragmented client material into a trusted risk profile that moves through renewal, placement and advice — reducing friction today while creating the foundation for deeper risk insight over time.
Client risk information is scattered across schedules, proposals, declarations, policies, emails and prior submissions. Each renewal or placement cycle forces brokers to gather, check, reformat and re-present information that should be maintained as a working asset.
Modernisation has improved the tools around broking. The risk information underneath them still resets too often.
The platform turns fragmented client material into a trusted risk profile organised around the client's business rather than around insurance documents. That profile can be carried forward, reused and enriched across renewal, placement, advice and future risk insight.
This is not another document workflow. It is a governed risk-data layer beneath the broking workflow.
A risk record only has value if people can trust it. DB3 is built around controlled, traceable information that can support broking work across time.
AI can help extract, classify, flag and draft. But a human broker remains responsible for accepting risk information and applying judgement.
The goal is not to replace brokers. It is to reduce low-value reconstruction work so skilled brokers can spend more time on interpretation, advice, negotiation and client outcomes.
DB3 is being proven inside Benchmark Risk, an Australian-based, advisory-led broking practice. The platform is designed around real broking work: inherited documents, client review, insurer engagement, renewal pressure and the need for controlled risk information before anything is sold more broadly.
The platform is being shaped against live broking, not modelled on a theoretical version of it.
Mark de Hosson has spent more than 20 years in broking, distribution, advisory and digital trading roles. He is now building both Benchmark Risk, an advisory-led broking practice, and DB3, the technology company behind the platform that practice will use.
