Zavarovalnica Triglav automates customer service with Azure OpenAI chatbot
Zavarovalnica Triglav, Slovenia's leading insurance and financial group, built its own chatbot using Azure OpenAI Service (rather than a public solution, to meet data protection regulations), trained on its company knowledge base, to draft responses to customer enquiries for agent review, automatically answering around 10% of queries directly. For the remaining queries, the company built automated ticket routing using Azure OpenAI Service to read enquiry content and direct it to the right department, reducing manual intervention by about 50% for certain request types. It also automated transcription and summarization of recorded customer communications and deployed a customer-facing chatbot on its website, with a voice bot for the call center in development.

Inspect the highlighted sourceThe challenge
Zavarovalnica Triglav's communication was scattered across different platforms and channels, relying on lots of manual work to manage enquiries, making it difficult to design personalized communication or segment customers for campaigns.
The solution
Zavarovalnica Triglav implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 to centralize customer interactions, then developed its own chatbot using Azure OpenAI Service (rather than a public solution, for data protection reasons) trained on its company knowledge base to draft responses for agent review, plus an Azure OpenAI-based system to automatically route enquiries to the right department, automated transcription/summarization of customer communications, and a customer-facing chatbot built with Azure Bot Framework connected to Azure OpenAI Service.
Reported business value
The chatbot automatically answers around 10% of queries, automated ticket routing reduced the need for manual intervention by about 50% for certain types of requests, and AI-generated transcripts and summaries resulted in a substantial decrease in manual work.

UNIQA SEE cuts health insurance claims processing times by 90% with Azure AI
UNIQA SEE's claims handlers faced fragmented documents, manual tasks, and heavy call-center reliance that slowed claims processing. Using Microsoft Azure AI alongside Microsoft Foundry, Azure Document Intelligence, and Azure OpenAI, UNIQA SEE built an end-to-end AI-driven medical referral solution that extracts, validates, and integrates referral letter data via APIs into the core claims system. The solution reduced claims processing time from 15-30 minutes to 2-3 minutes (an 85-90% reduction), lowered costs and call volumes, and freed staff for higher-value work. UNIQA SEE also introduced a self-service web and mobile app allowing customers to submit medical referral letters digitally. UNIQA SEE became the first insurer in Southeastern Europe to implement an AI-powered business process solution of this kind.
How Mapfre Insurance modernized fraud claims with Amazon EMR Serverless
Mapfre Insurance, the number one auto and home insurer in Massachusetts, modernized fraud detection by combining graph-based features from Neo4j with machine learning models deployed on AWS, using Amazon EMR Serverless, Apache Iceberg tables on Amazon S3, AWS Glue Data Catalog, AWS Lake Formation, and Amazon MWAA for orchestration.
