Automating Insurance Claims Processing — From Weeks to Hours with AI Agents

Industry: InsuranceLocation: CanadaDuration: 12 weeksTeam: 5 engineers

An insurance company serving hundreds of thousands of policyholders was drowning in manual claims processing. Weeks-long wait times, customer complaints, and adjusters burning out. We built an AI system that triages, validates, and processes simple claims automatically — cutting processing time from weeks to hours.

The Problem

What Was Going Wrong

The insurer's claims processing was entirely manual — adjusters reviewing paperwork, making phone calls, requesting additional documents. The backlog grew every month. Customers were switching to competitors with faster processing. Fraud detection was inconsistent.
