The service uses Anthropic Claude 3 Sonnet on Amazon Bedrock with Amazon Kendra as the chatbot interface, Amazon Textract to extract data from scanned documents, and Amazon Comprehend to analyze text and redact PII and protected health information for compliance with regulations such as India's PII guidelines. EXL tested multiple foundation models (Mistral AI, Claude 2, Sonnet 3, Amazon Titan) to minimize hallucinations before launching the service in August 2024, just 60 days after starting development. EXL reports the solution reduces underwriting processing time from several days to a few hours and has the potential to cut underwriting costs by up to 80%.","company":"EXL","industry":"Financial Services","aiCapabilities":["Generative AI","Conversational AI","Document Intelligence"],"businessFunctions":["Finance & Accounting"],"technology":["Amazon Bedrock","Anthropic Claude 3 Sonnet","Amazon Kendra","Amazon Textract","Amazon Comprehend"],"deployment":"Public Cloud","problemStatement":"Underwriters were still spending days reviewing hundreds of pages of documents as part of the initial assessment and review stages.
