The idea is that the sensors provide valuable data on the state of the property , thereby reducing the risk of accidents , such as burst pipes or leaks – or even break ins . The insurance covers the homes and possessions of the insurance holder as well as liability from accidents happening in the insured property . They use AI and big data to aggregate and analyse property information .
