Challenge

Build a Heat Risk Underwriting Graph with LangChain, LangGraph, and Fireworks AI

With European heatwaves driving severe commercial property risks and business interruption exposure, property insurers require automated tools to assess chronic heat stress and building vulnerability. In this challenge, you will implement a stateful underwriting agent graph using LangChain and LangGraph, powered by ultra-fast LLM inference via Fireworks AI. Your system will ingest commercial property inspection reports, geographical heat hazard data, and HVAC resilience ratings. Using LangGraph state nodes, the graph will route high-risk assets through detailed structural degradation checks, apply policy rate adjustments, and generate a final explainable underwriting summary. By leveraging Fireworks AI's high-throughput API endpoints, the pipeline must execute fast batch evaluations while maintaining high decision fidelity and precise constraint checking across state transitions.

Dimension 1

state_graph_completion

Verifies that the graph reaches the END node without unhandled exceptions.

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

category_classification_match

Ensures output risk category matches expected tier.

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 3
