LOS ANGELES, May 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Klear.ai, the leader in intelligence–powered claims and risk solutions, is supporting the Alaska Public Risk Alliance (APRA) as it embarks on a bold initiative to modernize and unify claims operations across its soon-to-be consolidated public risk pools—formerly AMLJIA and APEI.

With claims operations currently divided between two legacy systems—Claim Pilot and PCIS—APRA is undertaking a significant restructuring to streamline technology and workflows. Each system has operated independently, with different processes and data structures, creating a critical need for a modern, centralized solution. Klear.ai’s cloud–native platform is purpose–built to simplify complexity through intelligent automation and seamless data consolidation.

“Our team specializes in high–stakes implementations involving multi–employer environments, data migrations, and configurable workflows,” said Pete Govek, Chief Revenue Officer, Klear.ai. “This initiative presents an opportunity to help APRA enhance efficiency, strengthen transparency, and reduce administrative friction through cutting–edge technology.”

It brings Klear.ai Intelligence to the forefront of claims operations—delivering real–time analytics and risk insights.

Automated workflows across key lines—including Workers’ Compensation, Property, Auto, and General Liability—are uniquely designed to promote operational efficiency and drive compliance.

The platform’s intuitive interface elevates decision–making by consolidating data, generating actionable insights, and scaling to meet the evolving needs of public risk pools.

Lynn McNamara, Interim Executive Director, APRA, is currently leading the system evaluation and transition planning effort, while Brennan Hickok, Deputy Director, is driving the implementation process for APRA.

Klear.ai is proud to support APRA’s vision to reimagine its claims infrastructure and equip its team with a future–ready platform that aligns with the evolving needs of public risk pools. By delivering advanced technology solutions today—and building for tomorrow—Klear.ai is committed to empowering APRA and its members for long–term success.

New funding strengthens Telescope’s Tech Offset Program (TTOP), expanding efforts to support those navigating job transitions driven by technological change.

WASHINGTON, May 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Ford Foundation has awarded a grant to Telescope to accelerate its innovative Tech Offset Program (TTOP). TTOP is a new tool designed to help workers transition successfully through job disruptions caused by AI and other emerging technologies, by enabling businesses, governments, and other stakeholders to pool resources, price risk, and directly support affected workers.

As AI reshapes the economy, Telescope is focused on building practical, scalable solutions to address workforce displacement and ensure technological progress serves the public good. Recent survey research from Gallup and Telescope reveals that people across all ages, genders, incomes, geographies, and political views are deeply concerned about AI’s impact on jobs, privacy, and security — and want institutions to take action. TTOP focuses initially on the impact of AI on jobs. The partnership with the Ford Foundation comes at a pivotal moment for workers and communities across the country.

When jobs are displaced, workers need fast, flexible support. TTOP imagines a new marketplace, to move real resources thoughtfully and quickly—stimulating a market and drawing competitively upon the best providers for financial assistance, trusted networks, career guidance, retraining, education, and mobility support.

“We can’t afford to wait to prepare ourselves for AI’s impacts on workers in the future, the AI revolution is here. We need to work across business, government, and labor to support workers and their families while advancing technology for the public good,” said Darren Walker, President of the Ford Foundation. “Telescope’s Tech Offset Program imagines an innovative approach to help workers, and we’re proud to help accelerate their work.”

The Ford Foundation’s investment in TTOP is part of its broader commitment to shaping a more inclusive technology future—one that centers people, not just profits.

“We are deeply honored to receive this support from the Ford Foundation, one of the world’s leading institutions advancing justice and human progress,” said Eric Braverman, Chair and CEO of Telescope. “This grant will help us accelerate the development of programs like TTOP that advance the benefits of technological change while also reducing the harm and risk for workers. Partnerships like this are essential to meeting the moment and unlocking the full potential of emerging innovation.”
