Insurance Software Leader Deploys AI Copilot Across 12 Products
How a leading insurance technology company democratized AI development, enabling 400 developers to build AI-powered features using Copilot Studio.
The Challenge
As a leading provider of insurance software solutions, this company serves insurance carriers with a comprehensive suite of twelve software products covering policy administration, claims management, billing, analytics, and more. The insurance industry was demanding AI capabilities, but the company faced a significant bottleneck.
The traditional approach to AI development presented serious challenges:
- A small data science team was the bottleneck for all AI features
- 400 software developers couldn't contribute to AI functionality
- Time-to-market for AI features was measured in months
- The insurance industry faces an underwriter shortage requiring AI augmentation
- New hires needed faster onboarding with intelligent assistance
- Customers expected modern AI capabilities across all products
The company needed a way to embed AI capabilities across their entire product portfolio without creating an insurmountable dependency on specialized AI expertise.
The Solution
The company adopted Microsoft Copilot Studio to build a comprehensive AI copilot that could be embedded across all twelve insurance software products. The key innovation was using Copilot Studio's low-code capabilities to democratize AI development.
Democratizing AI Development
The shift to Copilot Studio fundamentally changed who could build AI features:
- Before: Only the data science team could implement AI functionality
- After: 400 software developers can now handle 95% of copilot features
- Data Science Focus: The specialized team focuses on complex AI challenges and model optimization
Embedded Copilot Capabilities
The copilot provides intelligent assistance across insurance workflows:
- Underwriting Support: Instant answers to policy questions and risk assessment guidance
- Claims Processing: AI-assisted claims evaluation and documentation
- Policy Search: Natural language queries across policy databases
- Training Acceleration: On-demand guidance for new employees learning complex systems
- Customer Service: Suggested responses and information retrieval for support staff
"Copilot Studio changed our entire approach to AI. What used to require our data science team can now be handled by our regular developers. We went from AI being a bottleneck to AI being a capability we can deliver across every product."
