New York, NY — March 31, 2026 — DigitalOwl, the leading AI-powered platform for medical record analysis in the insurance and legal industries, has been named to the Everest Group Top 50 Life & Annuities Insurance Technology Providers 2026. DigitalOwl is now part of Datavant, the data collaboration platform trusted for healthcare.
The Everest Group Top 50 is an objective ranking of technology providers serving the life and annuities insurance market, based on a combination of market success, product and value chain coverage, geographic reach, and innovation and investment in areas such as AI.
DigitalOwl’s inclusion reflects its growing presence in the insurance ecosystem and the increasing demand for solutions that can bring structure and clarity to complex medical data. As insurers face rising pressure to improve efficiency, reduce time spent on manual review, and make faster, more consistent decisions, the need for more connected and intelligent processes has become critical.
DigitalOwl addresses these challenges by transforming unstructured medical records into organized, structured outputs, including summaries, chronologies, and insights. These capabilities help underwriting teams move through cases more efficiently, reduce the risk of missed information, and focus their time on higher-value decision-making.
“The way the insurance industry handles medical data hasn’t worked for a long time, but that’s starting to change,” said Yuval Man, Chief Commercial Officer at Datavant and former CEO of DigitalOwl. “This recognition from Everest Group reflects real adoption and meaningful progress, and is a strong signal we’re heading in the right direction.”
The report is designed to help insurers identify and evaluate technology providers across the value chain, from underwriting and policy administration to customer engagement and claims. DigitalOwl’s platform supports insurance processes by applying AI to extract, structure, and analyze medical data at scale, reducing fragmentation and improving operational efficiency in an otherwise labor-intensive process.
Over the past year, DigitalOwl has continued to expand its platform capabilities, with a focus on deeper, case-level analysis. Moving beyond summarization, the platform now delivers the insights underwriters need, including tracking treatment progression and identifying whether conditions are stable, worsening, or improving over time, giving teams greater clarity to make more informed, confident decisions. DigitalOwl has also introduced application analysis, enabling underwriters to compare applicant answers against medical records and automatically flag discrepancies, helping teams move through cases faster with greater accuracy.
In parallel, DigitalOwl is working with Datavant and Ontellus to bring retrieval, management, and analysis together in one platform with the introduction of ChartSwap Insights. This evolution is designed to create a more seamless, end-to-end workflow, reducing friction and enabling teams to move from records to insights more efficiently.
As insurers continue to invest in AI-driven underwriting and data integration, DigitalOwl remains focused on delivering practical, insurance-specific solutions that address the realities of medical record reviews and support more consistent, data-driven decision-making.
