Who owns the problem, by department
Core operations (claims)
Owned by VP Claims, Claims Operations Director, COO. Adjusters spend most of their day reading documents, not adjusting.
FNOL, document review, coverage check, routing, and adjudication are manual; roughly 80% of claim time is document handling. Straight-through processing for standard claims: agent extracts from FNOL and supporting documents, checks coverage, scores complexity, routes; adjusters receive only the 15 to 20% needing judgment, with every decision logged.
Measured on Claim cycle time, straight-through rate, loss adjustment expense per claim.
The work behind it: AI agents and workflow automation, Document processing, Human-in-the-loop operations design, Agent evaluation and QA, Workflow and system integration, Proof of concept.
64% of insurers name claims top AI priority; 86% raising AI spend in 2026 (Accenture); 65% plan scaled claims agents in 2026 (Roots AI).
Finance and accounting
Owned by CFO, Controller, Head of Premium Accounting. Commission and bordereaux reconciliation lives in one person's spreadsheet.
Premium billing, broker commissions, and reinsurance recoveries reconciled by hand each month from PDFs and portals. Process mining shows the rework; agent ingests statements and bordereaux, matches to policy and premium records, raises exceptions to finance with the evidence attached.
Measured on Reconciliation hours per month, unapplied cash, recoveries collected.
The work behind it: AI agents and workflow automation, Process mining, Document processing, Workflow and system integration.
Claims and premium operations are the top two insurance AI investment areas in 2026 industry surveys.
Customer service (policy servicing)
Owned by Head of Customer Service, VP Policy Operations. We answer the same certificate and status requests all day.
Endorsements, certificates of insurance, claim status, and renewals handled by CSRs working the policy system by hand. Agent issues certificates and status updates in the carrier's templates, processes simple endorsements, escalates any change that affects coverage or premium; fine tuning only for document format.
Measured on Requests resolved without a CSR, certificate turnaround, renewal retention.
The work behind it: AI agents and workflow automation, Human-in-the-loop operations design, Agent evaluation and QA, Fine tuning.
71% of claims professionals say AI can reduce administrative delays, 60% expect faster resolution (Wisedocs 2026).
Shared services (underwriting intake)
Owned by Chief Underwriting Officer, Head of Underwriting Operations. Submissions sit in a shared inbox and good risks go stale.
Broker emails triaged manually, data rekeyed into the rating system, incomplete submissions bounced days later. Agent reads submissions, extracts ACORD and loss-run data, checks completeness and appetite, assigns to the right underwriter same day, bounces incomplete ones automatically with a list of what is missing.
Measured on Submission to quote time, quote ratio, underwriter capacity.
The work behind it: AI agents and workflow automation, Document processing, Human-in-the-loop operations design, Workflow and system integration.
Submission triage and pre-bind document checks named as specific 2026 agent deployments (AI for Insurance 2026 guide).
IT and transformation
Owned by CIO, Head of Policy Systems. Nothing talks to the policy admin system.
Guidewire, Duck Creek, or the AMS has no clean write-back path, so automation lives outside it and someone rekeys. Agent actions written to the policy system with full audit; evaluation evidence packaged for NAIC model bulletin and state regulator review.
Measured on Rekeying hours eliminated, regulator findings, time to approve new automation.
The work behind it: Workflow and system integration, Agent evaluation and QA, AI agents and workflow automation.
