Connection via OMDS and API to existing policy administration systems; GDPR, IDD, VAG, DORA and the EU AI Act are considered from the start.

What slows insurers down

Good products.Analogue processes.

We know these four problems from every conversation – from the five-person broker to the insurer with its own call centre.

Paper mountains and media breaks

Claim forms by post, manual data entry, email attachments someone retypes – at every step.

Overloaded call centres

Long waiting times, and simple questions about cover or excess tie up qualified staff for hours.

Customers cancel out of frustration

No status update on the claim, no contact before renewal – customers leave because they hear nothing.

Anomalies go unnoticed

Manual review takes time and spots patterns in claim clusters too late.

Agent-ready · standard in every web project

Your next customerasks their AI first.

Anyone looking for home or motor insurance increasingly asks an AI assistant: what does which tariff cover, what does it cost, who advises in person? If the assistant can read your website, the enquiry lands with you.

Simplified example · request to an AI assistant“Home contents insurance for 80 m² in Innsbruck including natural hazards. Which brokers nearby advise in person – appointment this week?”

Without agent-ready
  • Website found – lines of business only as an image, tariff info as PDF
  • No online appointment, only phone during office hours
  • On to the comparison portal
Policy via the portalYour advice was never involved
With agent-ready
  • Lines of business, focus areas & free appointments read
  • Home contents incl. natural hazards · advice in Innsbruck · Thu 10:00 free
  • Appointment booked via the AI assistant

  • Lines of business, services and free consultation slots machine-readable
  • Appointments and claims reports possible directly – whether the customer calls, writes or their assistant asks
  • Structured data for Google and AI search – without misrepresenting tariff details

Our approach

One partner.Integrated, not replaced.

Integrates with:

OMDSpolicy administration systemREST / SOAPMicrosoft DynamicsSalesforceDMS / archiveWhatsApp Businessyour systems

One point of contact

Instead of portal agency, phone provider and automation tool from three sources: everything from one partner, one responsibility.

Integration instead of replacement

Connection to OMDS, existing APIs and your policy administration system – no big-bang replacement.

Regulation built in

IDD, VAG, DORA and the EU AI Act are part of the architecture – not an appendix at the end of the project.

Measurable, monthly

Processing time, reachability, cancellation rate: we measure what has changed and develop further in a targeted way.

Seven steps – no hidden scope.

Mapped to our four phases. How we work

  1. 01Analysis & diagnosisCurrent-state analysis

    Processes, systems and bottlenecks fully captured – without consultant jargon.

  2. 02Concept & architectureDigitalisation strategy

    Roadmap with concrete modules, sequence and expected effect – measurable, not vague.

  3. 03Development & integrationSystem integration

    Connection to OMDS, existing APIs and your policy administration system – no replacement.

  4. 04Development & integrationImplementation

    Agile sprints – first visible results within weeks, not months.

    Structured onboarding – no system nobody understands or uses.

  7. 07Handover & operationsOngoing optimisation

    Monthly reviews, KPIs, further development – no one-off engagement.

Compliance

Compliance is not an add-on.It is built in.

Insurance is heavily regulated. We build that in from the start – whichever modules you use.

GDPR & health data

EU data storage, encrypted transfer, deletion and access concepts. Health data under Art. 9 GDPR with special protection.

IDD & distribution

Advice documentation, suitability assessment and disclosure duties mapped digitally – for insurers, brokers and agents.

VAG & DORA

Supervisory requirements for outsourcing and ICT third-party providers: documentation, access concept, exit plan and incident reporting prepared.

EU AI Act & automated decisions

AI for risk assessment and pricing in life and health insurance counts as high-risk AI. We build with human oversight, documentation and no fully automated rejections (Art. 22 GDPR).

FAQ

Common questions.Clear answers.

Do we have to replace our policy administration system?

No. We connect via OMDS, API or data export and extend in a targeted way – no big-bang replacement.

Does the AI decide on claims or applications?

No. The AI captures, extracts, assigns and prioritises. Decisions on benefits, acceptance or rejection stay with your claims handlers – as GDPR and the EU AI Act require.

How is this compatible with DORA?

We deliver what you need as the client: documentation of the ICT service, access concepts, incident process and an exit strategy. You handle the classification in the register; we support you.

Does this work for brokers too?

Yes. Broker portal with portfolio, commissions and quote calculators, AI phone for customer enquiries and IDD-compliant advice documentation – also for small offices.

How are customers informed about their claim?

Automatically via the channel they chose – usually WhatsApp: receipt, missing documents, approval, payout. The chat answers queries, complex matters go to your team.

How quickly will we see results?

First modules run in 6–8 weeks – usually claims reporting via AI phone and status updates first.

What does it cost?

That depends on where you start – every module runs on its own. In the free initial consultation we work out your potential; afterwards you receive a concrete quote.
