What changes when it is insurance
We always ship a naive baseline alongside the model. If the sophisticated version cannot beat last-week's-number, you deserve to know that before you deploy it.
In insurance, claims decisions need an audit trail and a consistent basis across assessors. That single fact reshapes how predictive analytics & forecasting has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.
The workload we are most often asked to take on first is policy servicing requests, usually integrated against policy administration. We build the smallest thing that proves the case, put it in front of real users, and expand only what earns its keep.
Built by engineers who ship production systems, not by a practice that subcontracts the build. We hand over with runbooks, tests and a team that knows how it works, not a dependency.

Questions from this sector
Can AI decide claims?
It can decide straightforward low-value claims within defined rules, and should assemble and recommend on everything else with a human deciding. The split is a policy decision you set, not one we make.
How much can claims cycle time improve?
Document intake and validation are usually the bottleneck, and automating them typically removes days. We baseline your current cycle before promising a figure.
How much history do you need?
Generally two to three seasonal cycles for demand work, less for churn or risk scoring. The data audit in week one tells us what is realistically achievable with what you have.
How accurate will the forecast be?
We report error against a naive baseline on held-out periods. If the model does not beat the baseline meaningfully, we say so rather than shipping it.
Can the business understand the output?
Yes, feature importance and driver explanations are part of the deliverable. A forecast planners cannot interrogate is a forecast they will override.
