Insurance Claims Automation

Think of it as a smart digital claims clerk that reads all the forms, emails, photos, and reports, then does most of the claim processing work automatically so humans only handle the tricky edge cases.

Executive Brief

Business Problem Solved

Traditional insurance claims processing is slow, labor-intensive, and error-prone because adjusters must manually read documents, validate information, and make decisions. Claims automation uses AI to ingest and understand claim data, route and decide simple cases automatically, and surface only complex claims to humans—reducing cycle time, cost per claim, and leakage.

Value Drivers

Faster claim cycle times and improved customer experienceLower cost per claim through reduced manual handlingReduced errors and claim leakage via standardized decision rulesHigher adjuster productivity and capacity without proportional headcount growthBetter fraud detection signals by systematically analyzing claims dataImproved compliance and auditability via consistent workflows

Strategic Moat

Deep integration into insurer core systems and workflows (policy admin, FNOL, claims management) plus proprietary historical claims data used to tune models and rules makes the solution sticky and hard to replicate quickly.

Differentiation Factor

This framing emphasizes language-model-driven understanding of claim documents (unstructured text) as a core enabler, going beyond simple rules engines and RPA that only automate structured, repeatable steps.
