WorkingCompany's own claim

Problem

Hippo wanted faster first contact on homeowners claims and a way to absorb claim growth without adding claims staff in proportion.

Approach

Hippo rolled out a 24/7 conversational AI agent that powers its digital first notice of loss process. It captures and organizes claim data in real time, flags inconsistencies and routes claims to speed resolution.

Results

under 2 hoursaverage time to initial contact on claims since deployment, per HippoCompany's own claim[1]

more than 70%expected share of claims to be filed digitally, an expectation per HippoCompany's own claim[1]

30-35%rise in claim volume that current staff could handle, a projection from Hippo's internal modellingCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

Hippo links the AI intake step to faster first contact and to headcount planning. The volume capacity and digital filing share are modelling and expectation, not results.
