USE CASE: LOSS RUN ANALYSIS
Loss run analysis is one of the most tedious and error-prone workflows in insurance underwriting. Kolena’s AI automates the extraction, normalization, and analysis of loss run data, allowing underwriters to evaluate historical claims and risk exposure in minutes instead of hours.
Insurance underwriters rely on loss run analysis to assess an applicant's claims history and determine their risk profile. But when historical loss data spans multiple carriers, formats, and years, the process becomes a time sink. Underwriters are dealing with:
Data arrives from PDFs, Excel files, scanned documents, and even email attachments — each in a different format.
Loss data tables vary by carrier, requiring manual normalization before analysis.
Reviewers must separate losses vs. expenses, outstanding vs. paid — across hundreds of rows.
Results are manually merged into one spreadsheet, increasing risk of errors and missed entries. Even for experienced teams, each analysis can take 1–3 hours, and when errors occur such as missed rows, misclassified expenses, or typos — the results can derail underwriting decisions.
Kolena automates every step of loss run analysis, from ingestion to final spreadsheet output, with transparent reasoning and configurable Excel templates.
