What changes when it is insurance

Offline accuracy and revenue are different things. We measure recommendations by experiment against the business metric, because that is the only number that pays anyone.

In insurance, claims decisions need an audit trail and a consistent basis across assessors. That single fact reshapes how recommendation & personalisation 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.

Multi-model by default, so a provider outage is a routing decision rather than an incident. You own the code, the models where they are open-weight, and the documentation to run it without us.

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 data do we need?

Less than people assume to start. A content-based approach works from day one; collaborative filtering improves as interaction volume grows.

How do you handle new products?

Content-based features carry new items until interaction data accumulates, with deliberate exploration so new items get a fair chance to be seen.

How do we know it is working?

Controlled A/B tests measured on revenue or engagement, with proper statistical treatment rather than eyeballing a dashboard.
