Time travel is hard. Underwriting used to be harder.
AHOU turns 25 this year. And so does IntelliScript! Which makes the 2026 AHOU Annual Conference (April 19–22, Austin) the perfect occasion to rewind—and fast‑forward.
Visit our booth for a “back to the future of underwriting” sensory experience. Walk through a life‑size diorama and feel the profound evolution of your risk-assessment role, from the underserved paper-trail sleuth of yesteryear to today’s fast-moving, data-empowered dealmaker.
While you’re there, pick up some sweet swag and enter to win a $1000 tech bundle for the underwriter of the future (that’s you!).
