Five Sigma Customers have been Reaping the Benefits of AI and Automation for Years.
Founded in 2017 as an AI-native software company, Five Sigma has been at the forefront of integrating artificial intelligence and automation into its claims management platform for years. Harnessing the power of AI and automation from its inception, Five Sigma has enhanced efficiency, accuracy, and customer satisfaction for its dozens of customers, carriers, MGAs, TPAs, and self-insured companies.
Now, with the introduction of Clive, Five Sigma is making AI-powered claim handling a reality, not only for its own Claims Management platform, but also on top of any Claims Management System (CMS), allowing claims teams to benefit from AI and automation without replacing their existing claims system.
Clive represents the culmination of years of innovation and expertise, embodying the company’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of excellence in claims management. Through Clive, Five Sigma brings the future of insurance to the present.
Introducing Clive, an AI Claims Adjuster and a Team Player
Clive represents a major leap in claims management, embodying Five Sigma’s “Automation-First” approach.
As an AI-powered insurance adjustment agent, Clive excels in orchestrating and automating tasks, traditionally done manually by human adjusters, across lines of business and tailored to specifics of the organizational Standard Operating Procedure (SOP). His capabilities span the entire claim lifecycle from initial loss notification (FNOL) through to settlement. Clive streamlines claims operations through automated document handling, exposure setting, personalized communications with policyholders, and even real-time decision making that allow Straight-Through Processing or recommendations for human adjusters or claims managers.
Clive operates by collecting and analyzing claim-related data, creating and executing tasks tailored to each stage of a claim’s lifecycle, and dynamically adjusting actions based on new information, communication, and claim-related events. Additionally, it ensures seamless interaction with policyholders, keeping them informed every step of the way.
At its core, Clive is developed as a powerful assistant to human adjusters, meticulously engineered to augment their work by automating time-consuming tasks. This approach frees up adjusters to concentrate on more complex aspects of claims handling, such as personalized customer care and making decisions, thereby enhancing overall productivity without displacing the valuable human element. Human adjusters who own the claims handled primarily by Clive are therefore able to demonstrate superb processing results and enjoy more meaningful work than what adjusters’ are usually used to, dealing with a lot of repetitive tasks under constant pressure.
A Universal AI Add-On for Any CMS
While Clive is included in Five Sigma’s claims management platform, the company decided to release it as a universal claims agent. Clive offers its advanced capabilities as an enhancement to any Claims Management System currently in use, whether it’s Guidewire, Duck Creek, Sapiens, or Majesco.
By utilizing available APIs and webhooks, Clive extends its sophisticated automation and AI-driven insights across platforms, enriching existing systems with its innovative features to the extent possible by the systems’ API limitations. This adaptability makes Clive a transformative tool for insurers seeking to leverage AI benefits without overhauling their existing claims infrastructure.
Building on Five Sigma’s Strong AI and Automation Reputation
Customers of Five Sigma are not surprised by the announcement of Clive .
“We saw it coming,” says Marc Rothchild, Senior Vice President and Head of Claims at Xceedance, an early adopter of Five Sigma’s platform. “With Five Sigma’s existing AI and automation features, we’ve already slashed manual, administrative tasks that traditionally take over 30% of an adjuster’s time, significantly boosting our operational efficiency and reducing Loss Adjustment Expenses. The introduction of Clive was eagerly awaited. Our adjusters already trust Five Sigma’s platform with the accuracy of its automation and its data-driven recommendations. Utilizing our guidelines and under our supervision, we anticipate Clive will unlock even greater benefits, elevating our claims management process to new heights.”
Oded Barak, Co-founder and CEO of Five Sigma, said “Clive is more than innovation, it’s a revolution in
claims management, marking a significant milestone in our company’s journey towards claims management transformation. Clive acts as a proficient and effective claims adjuster. It’s a testament to our commitment to driving the insurance industry forward with AI and automation, demonstrating that the future of claims is here and now. We’re empowering our customers, and the insurance industry, to achieve unparalleled efficiency and greater customer satisfaction.”
