Executive Summary

Intelligent Claim Adjudication Powered by
Deterministic AI

Warranty and insurance companies receive a huge number of claims every day, but manual adjudication often delays approvals, raises operational expenses, and ultimately results in differences in financial decisions. To tackle such difficulties, Augmantis, sponsored by eComStreet, created an AI Claim Adjudicator that integrates deterministic business logic with cognitive AI to automate claim reviews while maintaining financial accuracy and regulatory compliance. The platform instantly approves eligible claims, flags high-risk cases for human review, validates repair costs, and maintains complete auditability.

🤖

Cognitive Repair Validation

Uses advanced LLM reasoning to compare the mechanic's reported failure with the requested replacement parts, automatically identifying repair requests that are inconsistent with the diagnosed issue before claim approval.

🔍

Multi-Modal Image Forensics

Analyzes invoices, damaged-part photos, and vehicle images to verify that the claimed component is visible, damaged, and accurately matches the submitted repair request.

🛡️

Automated Financial Enforcement

Validates requested repair costs against live MSRP pricing APIs and automatically adjusts authorized reimbursements to approved pricing limits, ensuring consistent financial compliance and cost control.

☁️

Intelligent Document Gating

Automatically detects high-risk repairs, aftermarket parts, or missing documentation, placing claims into a Pending Document status until all required supporting evidence is uploaded and verified.

The Problem

Automating Accurate, Policy-Driven
Claim Adjudication

Manual claim adjudication requires adjusters to validate coverage, repair costs, supporting documents, and damage evidence before approving claims. As volumes increase, these repetitive reviews slow settlements and make consistent, policy-driven decisions more difficult.

Challenge 01

Reliable Financial Decision-Making

The Obstacle

Large Language Models (LLMs) are effective at understanding documents but cannot be trusted for precise financial calculations, policy date validation, or enforcing strict reimbursement rules. Using AI alone for monetary approvals introduces unacceptable financial risk.

The Innovation

Augmantis developed a Hybrid Deterministic-Cognitive Engine that separates financial logic from AI reasoning.

  • Python executes deterministic calculations such as MSRP capping, tax computation, deductible validation, and contract expiry verification.
  • AI evaluates mechanic notes, repair descriptions, and contextual evidence to determine whether requested repairs align with reported failures.
  • This architecture guarantees mathematically accurate decisions while leveraging AI only where contextual reasoning is required.

Challenge 02

Detecting Fraud Across Multiple Images

The Obstacle

Claims frequently include invoices, dashboard images, odometer photos, and damaged component images. Reviewing each image independently limits the AI's ability to detect inconsistencies or fraudulent submissions.

The Innovation

The platform implements Batch Multi-Modal Vision Analysis, where all uploaded images are retrieved simultaneously from Amazon S3 and analyzed within a single vision prompt. This enables the AI to:

  • Verify damaged parts are actually visible.
  • Match odometer readings with invoices.
  • Extract VINs and mileage using OCR.
  • Correlate multiple photographs to validate claim authenticity before adjudication.

The Solution

Intelligent AI-Powered Claim
Adjudication

The AI Claim Adjudicator combines deterministic business logic, multimodal AI, and enterprise policy rules to automatically evaluate warranty claims, approve eligible repairs, detect financial risks, and deliver explainable decisions within seconds.

Layer
01
AI & Agentic Workflows

Zero-Touch Pre-Approval

Automatically evaluates routine, low-value warranty claims against contract terms, coverage rules, and eligibility criteria. Qualified claims are approved instantly without entering the manual review queue, reducing processing time while allowing adjusters to focus on complex exceptions.

Contract Validation Automated Approval Business Rules Straight-Through Processing
Layer
02
Retrieval Architecture

Dynamic MSRP Capping

Validates requested repair costs against industry-standard MSRP pricing APIs before authorizing reimbursement. If submitted repair charges exceed approved pricing thresholds, the system automatically caps payouts according to enterprise financial policies and warranty guidelines.
