About Sprout.aiSprout.ai was established in London, UK in 2018 with a mission to help people in their time of need when making an insurance claim. Inefficient claims processing for the insurer meant that customer experience was suffering and people were losing faith in their insurance policies. The average insurance customer was waiting over 25 days to receive an outcome on their claim, often in times of vulnerability.
The barriers to rapid claims settlement included unstructured data, complexity and volume of decision making, legacy systems and processes. Sprout.ai''s patented claims automation platform solves these challenges and has delivered instant claims settlement on millions of insurance claims worldwide. Our proprietary AI products can automate every step of the claims journey, enabling claims handlers to focus on the human element and customer care.
Leading VCs supported our growth, including an $11M Series A led by Octopus Ventures in 2021; overall funding has exceeded $20M.
