Our take
The traditional insurance life cycle is tricky to navigate for insurers and their customers, with endless paperwork and costly manual processes. Artificial is setting out to allow insurers and brokers to capture valuable data and digitally quote, bind, and issue policies, increasing efficiency and reducing the administrative burden on brokers and underwriters.
These tools are built on top of a shared core, called ArtificialOS, which is a suite of powerful, API-driven building blocks, for insurers of all sizes. Ranging from policy management to AI-based automated claims, Artificial's service-based architecture means they can very quickly combine these blocks and integrate applications according to insurer requirements.
Artificial has strong traction in the marketplace and has launched multiple partnerships with insurance groups to expand its provision of a smarter and more efficient underwriting service to brokers and clients. The company is continuing to invest in its machine learning capabilities which will provide customers with a further competitive edge in the future.
