Runner-Up — Guidewire Hackathon: Transforming Insurance with AI
We secured the Runner-Up position at the Guidewire Software hackathon focused on innovating the insurance sector!
The Challenge
Insurance adjusters manually note information during calls with policyholders — a slow and error-prone process. We set out to revolutionize how adjusters handle data during these critical calls.
Our Solution
A powerful AI assistant that integrates with the Guidewire web app, available as both a Chrome extension and a smart agent.
Key Features
- Real-Time Transcription: Captures every word during calls with policyholders
- Advanced Data Processing: Uses Google NLP to extract and process key information automatically
- Efficient Workflow: Automatically fills in claim forms, saving time and reducing errors
- Dual Interface: Available as both a Chrome extension and standalone smart agent
Impact
Previously, adjusters manually noted information — a slow and error-prone process. Our assistant streamlines this entire workflow:
- Faster claims handling: Automated transcription eliminates manual note-taking
- Reduced errors: NLP extraction ensures accurate data capture
- More focus time: Frees adjusters to focus on critical tasks rather than data entry
Looking Forward
This hackathon was a pivotal moment — it showed me how AI could transform traditional enterprise workflows. The experience of building an AI-powered tool for real insurance workflows laid the groundwork for my current work leading AI initiatives at Guidewire, where we’ve since deployed multi-agent systems serving 50K+ daily users.
Thank you to everyone who supported us, and congrats to all participants! Together, we are building the future of insurance.
