Clal, a leading insurance company in Israel, was facing stiff competition from regional InsurTech companies. The regulatory landscape was also becoming increasingly aggressive, impacting large companies with complex internal-external development needs. The company needed to transition from a bottleneck to a booster and turn a regulatory liability into a capability advantage. However, they lacked a comprehensive API management platform that could help them achieve this. The company also faced challenges with API bottlenecks and duplicates, rising costs, and the need for digital transformation.
