What is Agentic Claims Automation?

Agentic claims automation uses AI agents to process insurance claims autonomously from FNOL to settlement while keeping you in control.

Traditional automation relied on point solutions that digitized fragments of the process. These tools always required manual review and never delivered true end-to-end automation. 

Your team handled most complexity, exceptions, and judgment themselves, acting as the glue between disconnected systems. Claims moved through multiple hands (often repeatedly) because automation couldn’t run processes end-to-end autonomously.

Otera replaces that patchwork with Agentic operations that run on autopilot. 

AI agents understand policy data, extract and validate documentation, detect exceptions, and trigger payments under built-in governance and full audit oversight. Claims can be managed end-to-end without human touch, with clear visibility and safe control at every step.

The Autonomy Advantage

Otera enables enterprises to finally shift from Human-first to Agentic-first operations for all the highly regulated, exception-heavy claims processes you can’t afford to get wrong.

Point Automation (<10% End-to-End Automation Rate)

  • Multi-week turnaround during peak periods
  • Backlogs piling up, poor CSAT
  • Team size becomes a bottleneck
  • No end-to-end oversight or control

Agentic Automation with Otera (>90% End-to-End Automation Rate)

  • <90s settlement
  • No backlog, industry-leading CSAT
  • +10x operational capacity
  • Full end-to-end oversight

Core Agentic Skills for Claims Automation

What it does

This agent extracts and understands every claim input instantly across 100+ languages, including skewed images, low-quality scans, rotated pages, emails, and handwritten notes. It transforms messy, multi-source content into clean, standardized, machine-ready data to trigger downstream actions automatically.

How it works

  • Uses proprietary multi-step vision and data representation methods to read structured and unstructured content
  • Unifies all your data input across PDFs, forms, emails, attachments, and images
  • Maps extracted fields to policy and customer records for contextual accuracy
  • Produces standardized data objects ready for routing and reporting

Why it matters

Claims rarely begin with clean, structured input. This agent eliminates manual review of messy documents so that every claim enters the process with automation-ready data, pulled from any source simultaneously.

What it does

This agent instantly classifies and routes claims with autonomous awareness of urgency, customer wait time, sentiment, region, policy type, ongoing catastrophic events, and more.

How it works

  • Detects type, severity, channel, policy attributes, sentiment, and other critical data points.
  • Can prioritize re-submitted claims from waiting customers based on business rules.
  • Can elevate cases linked to catastrophic events or emerging risk clusters, so that they get human-first handling
  • Directs predictable cases into autonomous flows and escalates nuanced cases with precision

Why it matters

Intake is where cluttered backlogs are born. This agent replaces slow sorting queues with instant, context-aware routing that eliminates bottlenecks at any volume.

What it does

This agent converts policy wording, contracts and agreements into deterministic, self-enforcing rules. Then, it validates coverage instantly across all terms, limits, exclusions, endorsements, and conditional requirements, even for complex or multi-document policies.

How it works

  • Converts policy documentation into rules and structures that can be incorporated into every workflow
  • Detects mismatches, missing documentation, eligibility conflicts, and special clauses
  • Evaluates nuanced conditions such as illness-linked travel disruptions and required proofs
  • Resolves coverage questions instantly before adjudication begins

Why it matters

Manual coverage validation is the number one enemy of claims velocity. Shifting this step entirely to machines creates a leap to instant, superhuman-quality decisions that eliminate any possible leakage from interpretation errors.

What it does

This agent evaluates claim details and rules to determine the correct outcome autonomously. Then, it produces a fully traceable, audit-ready decision path for every case.

How it works

  • Compares claimed amounts to policy thresholds and historical patterns
  • Detects documentation gaps and inconsistencies to flag anomalous claims
  • Calculates payable amounts using deterministic logic
  • Produces line-by-line, explainable reasoning

Why it matters

Adjudication is rule-heavy and inconsistent across adjusters. With this agent, every claim outcome is instant and precise.

What it does

This agent operates continuously in the background to surface anomalies and behavioral irregularities, even before human reviewers detect them.

How it works

  • Flags duplicate submissions, emerging fraud clusters, suspicious suppliers
  • Correlates signals across policies and historical activity
  • Highlights the risk indicators that matter, with no false positives

Why it matters

Fraud detection can’t become autonomous at the expense of losing precision. This agent complements your existing fraud solution, using ground-truth data and plain-language instructions to spot patterns, so fraud cases surface instantly, while legitimate claims flow through without friction.

What it does

Research shows that humans often make different decisions on identical cases, even when nothing has changed. This agent makes all settlement decisions and executes all communication with customers and brokers autonomously and consistently.

How it works

  • Drafts customer updates and settlement letters
  • Initiates payment workflows with audit-ready logs
  • Syncs across CRMs and finance/claims systems
  • Maintains real-time timelines and SLAs

Why it matters

Settlement is the most important moment in insurance, and it can make a massive difference in customer sentiment. This agent ensures every customer receives clear, consistent, empathetic communication that’s backed by perfectly executed settlement actions.
