Tech Bytes: New Partnerships at Tractable, Coalition, Origami Risk

May 4, 2022

Tractable, an artificial intelligence company for accident and disaster recovery, announced an enhanced collaboration with Mitchell, an Enlyte company and technology and information provider for the property/casualty insurance and collision repair industries.

The collaboration makes straight-through processing in auto insurance claims available, backed by Tractable’s AI and Mitchell’s comprehensive digital platform. The integrated services are designed to enable U.S. and Canadian insurers and repairers to enact efficient and accurate outcomes, including auto claims, payments and claim settlement.

In auto insurance, straight-through processing refers to touchless claims that take place primarily without manual intervention. For example, when a policyholder reports an auto claim to their insurer, AI can assess the damage and make repair suggestions. The insurer and repairer can retain a human in the loop to sign off on estimates or to check more complex claims.

For policyholders, a web app can be used after an auto accident to submit photos of the damaged car and other data, and a repair quote is quickly displayed. This allows policyholders to take all of the steps required to restore their mobility directly when they report an accident to their insurer.
