Across the Insurance ecosystem, a special fraction within the industry is noteworthy for its adoption of new technologies ahead of others. However slow but sure, uberization of insurance has conventionally demonstrated a greater inclination towards digitization.

Artificial Intelligence has brought about revolutionary benefits in the Insurance industry.

AI enriched solutions can remove the ceiling caps on collaboration, removes manual dependencies and report errors.

However, organizations today are facing a lot of challenges in reaping the actual benefits of AI.

5 Challenges for AI implementation for Insurers

5 AI Implementation Challenges in Insurance

Lack of Quality training data

AI can improve productivity and help in decision making through training datasets. According to the survey of the Dataconomy, nearly 81% of 225 data scientists found the process of AI training more difficult than expected even with the data they had. Around 76% were struggling to label and interpret the training data.

Clean vision, Process, and Support from Executive Leadership

AI is not a one time process. Maximum benefits can be reaped out of AI through clear vision, dedicated time, patience and guided leadership from industry experts and AI thought leaders.

Data in-silos

Organizational silos are ill-advised and are proven constrictive barriers to operational productivity & efficiency. Most businesses that have data kept in silos face challenges in collaboration, execution, and measurement of their bigger picture goals. 

Technology & Vendor selection

AI has grown sharp enough to penetrate through the organizations. As AI success stories are becoming numerous investment in AI is also getting higher. However big the hype is, does AI implementation suits your business process or not – is the biggest question. The insurtech industries have continued its growth trajectory in 2019; reaching a funding of $6B. With the help of these insurtech service firms, Insurance organizations have made progress, tackling the age-old insurance ills with AI-powered innovations.

People, Expertise and Technical competency

‘Skills and talent’ in the field of AI is the main barrier for AI transformation in their business.

Still playing catch-up to the US, China, and Japan — India has doubled its AI  workforce over the past few years to nearly 72,000 skilled professionals in 2019.

NPS in Insurance Claims: What Insurance Leaders Are Doing Differently

Claims are the moment of truth. Are you turning them into moments of loyalty?

In insurance, your app interface might win you downloads. Your pricing might drive conversions.
But it’s the claims experience that decides whether a customer stays—or leaves for good.

According to a survey by NPS Prism, promoters are 2.3 times more likely to renew their insurance policies than passives or detractors—highlighting the strong link between customer advocacy and retention.

NPS in insurance industry is a strong predictor of customer retention. Many insurers are now prioritizing NPS to improve their claims experience.

So, what are today’s high-NPS insurers doing differently? Spoiler: it’s not just about faster payouts.

We’ve worked with claims teams that had best-in-class automation—but still had low NPS. Why? Because the process felt like a black box.
Customers didn’t know where their claim stood. They weren’t sure what to do next. And when money was at stake, silence created anxiety and dissatisfaction.

Great customer experience (CX) in claims isn’t just about speed—it’s about giving customers a sense of control through clear communication and clarity.

The Traditional Claims Journey

  • Forms → Uploads → Phone calls → Waiting
  • No real-time updates
  • No guidance after claim initiation
  • Paper documents and email ping-pong

The result? Frustrated customers and overwhelmed call centers.

The CX Gap: It’s Not Just Speed—It’s Transparency

Customers don’t always expect instant decisions. What they want:

  • To know what’s happening with their claim
  • To understand what’s expected of them
  • To feel heard and supported during the process

How NPS Leaders Are Winning Loyalty with CX-Driven Claims and High NPS

Image Source: NPS Prism

1. Real-Time Status Updates

Transparency to the customer via mobile app, email, or WhatsApp—keeping them in the loop with clear milestones. 

2. Proactive Nudges

Auto-reminders, such as “upload your medical bill” or “submit police report,” help close matters much faster and avoid back-and-forth.

3. AI-Powered Document Uploads

Single-click scans with OCR + AI pull data instantly—no typing, no errors.

4. In-the-Moment Feedback Loops

Simple post-resolution surveys collect sentiment and alert on issues in real time.

For e.g., Lemonade uses emotional AI to detect customer sentiment during the claims process, enabling empathetic responses that boost satisfaction and trust.

Smart Nudges from Real-Time Journey Tracking

For a leading insurance firm, we mapped the entire in-app user journey—from buying or renewing a policy to initiating a claim or checking discounts. This helped identify exactly where users dropped off. Based on real-time activity, we triggered personalized notifications and offers—driving better engagement and claim completion rates.

Tech Enablement

  • Claims Orchestration Layer: Incorporates legacy systems, third-party tools, and front-end apps for a unified experience.
  • AI & ML Models: For document validation, fraud detection, and claim routing, sentiment analysis is used. Businesses utilizing emotional AI report a 25% increase in customer satisfaction and a 30% decrease in complaints, resulting in more personalized and empathetic interactions.
  • Self-Service Portals: Customers can check their status, update documents, and track payouts—all without making a phone call.

Business Impact

What do insurers gain from investing in CX?

A faster claim is good. But a fair, clear, and human one wins loyalty.

And companies that consistently track and act on CX metrics are better positioned to retain customers and build long-term loyalty.

At Mantra Labs, we help insurers build end-to-end, tech-enabled claims journeys that delight customers and drive operational efficiency.
From intelligent document processing to AI-led nudges, we design for empathy at scale.

Want a faster and more transparent claims experience?
