Helping insurance companies tackle fraudulent claims by using a combination of blockchain and artificial intelligence. BlockClaim aims to reduce the time spent by car insurers processing false claims, by performing data calculations on a driver and their driving behaviour. This information is fed into the BlockClaim system, which produces a fraud probability risk score.
BlockClaim's technology has been piloted by large insurance firms such as Admiral and Generali. The company's tool consists of a plug-and-play module that is integrated into existing systems used by insurance firms. Revenue is generated via a fixed fee per claim processed via BlockClaim’s product, as well as an initial set-up fee.
