Three barriers to operational excellence

As a multinational insurer operating across 100+ countries, they faced unique complexity at every turn.

1

Synchronizing compliance and change

Regulations evolve faster than traditional IT cycles can adapt. Every market has different rules, and the stakes are high.

  • Financial and legal consequences for errors
  • Months-long development cycles for rule changes
  • 100+ regulatory environments to maintain
2

Undocumented institutional knowledge

Years of expert judgment trapped in the heads of senior staff. Policy guidelines, processing rules, and edge cases never systematized.

  • Risk of knowledge loss with staff turnover
  • Inconsistent decisions across teams
  • Training bottlenecks for new hires
3

Demanding accuracy requirements

Travel insurance involves complex inputs: medical terminology, multilingual documents, and local regulations. They needed 95%+ accuracy to trust any automation.

  • Medical terminology across languages
  • Local regulatory nuances
  • Zero tolerance for false approvals

Oakie's approach

Three capabilities that addressed each challenge directly.

Adaptive business specs

Rules auto-built directly from policy documents and guidelines. No code changes needed. Compliance teams can update rules directly, with changes live in hours instead of months.

Knowledge mining

Oakie extracted undocumented expertise from historical decisions. The system identifies knowledge gaps automatically and bootstraps accuracy using real examples from their past cases.

Adaptive learning

Continuous optimization based on adjuster feedback. The system improves over time without manual retraining, handling edge cases through ongoing learning from the team's decisions.
