  • Farmers: Began testing drones for claim inspections in January 2017
  • Liberty Mutual: Began using drones for a significant number of claim inspections after Hurricane Matthew hit the Southeast in October 2016
  • Nationwide Insurance: Evaluating the use of drones
  • State Farm: Conducting drone test flights in several states
  • Travelers: Using drones for claim inspections in 30 states
  • USAA: Used drones for claim inspections in Colorado and Texas and likely will expand to other states
