Insurers and brokers already run a policy administration system, a claims platform, a CRM, portals and inboxes full of forms, photos and PDFs. Much of the day goes on retyping, chasing missing documents and preparing files before anyone can make a decision. I build AI workflows on top of the systems you have to capture, check and summarise that information, with data protection and residency settled before building. The AI does not make underwriting or claims decisions: your team approves every one.

Free claims intake & document audit

Send me a sample of recent claim emails, forms or submissions with personal details removed. I show you where retyping, missing documents and waiting time are slowing your team, and the three fixes to start with.

  • Time from first notice to claim set-up
  • Documents most often missing and how long they take
  • Fields your team retypes by hand
  • A simple 30-day action plan

    Simulation with sample data. Real timing depends on your volumes, systems and team.

    Stage 01

    Claims intake

    Every claim logged and acknowledged, without retyping.

    Claims intake assistant

    Claims arriving by email, portal or WhatsApp are matched to the policy, photos and reports are attached and a summary is prepared for the handler. The AI never approves or declines a claim: your handlers make every decision.

    Simulate this for my business →
    Stage 02

    Documents & data

    Forms read, files complete and nothing chased by hand.

    Document extraction

    Proposal forms, schedules, certificates and scans are read and the key fields are extracted for your policy system. Any field the AI is unsure of goes to a person to check before it is saved.

    Simulate this for my business →

    Missing document chaser

    When a claim or policy file is missing a document, a request goes out by email or WhatsApp with reminders on a schedule. Replies are filed to the right record and the handler is told when the file is complete.

    Simulate this for my business →
    Stage 03

    Underwriting support

    Submissions ready to review the moment they are opened.

    Underwriting file summaries

    Broker submissions are turned into one summary with risk details, sums insured, claims history and missing information. The underwriter sets terms and decides on acceptance; the summary only saves the reading.

    Simulate this for my business →
    Stage 04

    Renewals & policyholder service

    Renewals prepared early and questions answered at any hour.

    Renewal preparation

    Renewal packs are drafted 30 to 60 days before expiry from the policy and claims history. Policies with claims or changed needs are flagged for the account handler, and nothing is sent without approval.

    Simulate this for my business →

    Policyholder enquiry assistant

    Questions about cover, documents, payments and claim status are answered on WhatsApp and email from your own policy information. Anything about a claim decision or a complaint goes straight to a named person.

    FAQ

    Questions I get asked

    Something else on your mind? Ask me on a short call.

    Will this work with the policy and claims systems we already use?

    Yes. I build on top of your existing systems, for example Guidewire, Duck Creek or Applied Epic, plus your CRM, portals and inboxes. The automation reads and updates records through approved integrations or exports, so handlers, brokers and underwriters keep working in the screens they know.

    Does the AI make underwriting or claims decisions?

    No. The AI captures, checks and summarises information so your people can decide faster. Accepting a risk, setting terms, approving or declining a claim and agreeing a settlement always stay with qualified underwriters and handlers. Any message about a decision is a draft for approval, and nothing is sent until a person signs it off.

    How is policyholder data protected, and where does it live?

    Data protection and residency are agreed before anything is built: which data each workflow may use, where it is hosted, for example in-country cloud regions, how long it is kept and who can access it. I use AI services that do not train on your data, and every action is logged so your compliance team can audit it.

    Can it read scans, photos and Arabic documents?

    In most cases, yes. Modern document AI handles scans, photos, tables and Arabic and English text well. Each extracted field carries a confidence score, and anything below the threshold you set goes to a person to check, so poor-quality documents do not slip into the system unnoticed.

    Do I need to be technical?

    No. You need to know how your book and your processes work, which you already do. I handle the integrations, set-up and testing, and your team uses the results inside the systems they already work in. I provide short guides and stay available for changes.

    How long does it take, and what does it cost?

    It depends on your tools, the size of your book and the use cases you pick, as well as your compliance review. A short call is enough for me to give you a clear scope, timeline and price for the first step, which is often claims intake or document extraction.

    Where should a broker or insurer start?

    Usually with claims intake or missing-document chasing. Both cut retyping and waiting, are easy to measure and involve no decisions by the AI. Underwriting summaries and renewal preparation tend to follow once the team trusts the extracted data.
