The Ascendex Platform
Technology That Drives Performance
Technology Powering Underwriting Excellence
An AI-native system that supports sharper decisions, cleaner execution, and full transparency across every practice.
Ascendex deploys tech for speed, automation, and an AI-native business.
Ascendex Underwriters was designed to scale underwriting teams. From the start, the company’s leadership prioritized a unified, AI-native platform that could support financial control, auditability, and efficiency without building a bloated corporate structure.
With no tolerance for disconnected systems or bolt-on tech, the Ascendex team selected Workday Financial Managementfor its flexibility, automation, and real-time visibility. Workday’s Launch Now methodology allowed Ascendex to deploy in under two months – before the first dollar of revenue was banked.
Workday was a natural fit for our model: one version of the truth, real-time data and a scalable foundation. That’s what we needed, and Workday delivered.
