Wildfire Property Risk Underwriting Multi-Agent System with AutoGen & Helicone

With property insurance exposure hitting $1.4T across top wildfire-prone states, insurance carriers and CRE asset managers need automated, multi-modal risk assessment systems that combine geospatial satellite telemetry, local vegetation density, fuel models, and policy compliance rules. Manual underwriting processes fail to scale against escalating climate events and rapidly shifting regulatory standards. In this challenge, you will build an automated wildfire property risk underwriting workflow using Microsoft AutoGen and Helicone for observability. You will construct a multi-agent network comprising a GIS Geospatial Analyst Agent, a Structural Hardening Compliance Agent, and an Actuarial Risk Scoring Agent. The system ingests building coordinates, satellite canopy rasters, structural attributes, and local zoning codes to dynamically output an underwriteability score, hazard mitigation recommendations, and adjusted premium pricing tier. Your deployment must track all agent interactions, tool calls, LLM latency, and cost telemetry via Helicone's observability SDK, enforcing structured JSON output for downstream claims systems.

Evaluation rubric

How submissions are scored

These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.

Dimensions
4 scoring checks
Binary
4 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

valid_schema_check

Ensures output conforms strictly to the property risk decision schema.

Binary check

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

Dimension 2

high_risk_flag_check

Verifies that properties with wood shake roofs and >15% slope receive a hazard score >= 75.

Binary check

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

Dimension 3

risk_score_accuracy

Mean absolute percentage error compared to ground truth actuarial hazard matrix. • target: 0.92 • range: 0-1

Binary check

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

Dimension 4

helicone_trace_coverage

Percentage of agent interactions with logged Helicone session headers. • target: 1 • range: 0-1

Binary check

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