With Sure AI Assistant, Insurity says that Kingstone’s policyholders will be able to file a claim within minutes, no matter how many inbound calls are currently in process. Sure AI Assistant will prove valuable in the case of a natural disaster when customers need to file their claims quickly and call volumes are the highest, according to the vendor.
Insurity describes Sure AI Assistant as purpose-built for the property/casualty insurance industry and transforming the claims filing process to make it quick, simple, and effortless. The vendor explains that callers are identified and greeted based on the phone number registered with their policy, making calls personal and efficient. Because Sure AI Assistant’s natural language model was optimized for the insurance domain using data from tens of thousands of real claims calls, it is able to guide policyholders through the claims process with ease, Insurity says.
Automating the routine first notice of loss (FNOL) calls, the Sure AI Assistant allows Kingstone’s policyholders to report a claim by walking through an effortless process. In addition, Sure AI Assistant includes the ability to transfer to a live claims expert at any time for callers who want to speak to a claims specialist.
