Surplus Allocation Automation for Insurance

Let your AI agent handle surplus earnings distribution for insurance and annuity contracts, so you can focus on actuarial analysis instead of manual reporting.

You spend hours in Excel, digging through policy PDFs and reconciling numbers across shared drives. As an actuary, justifying every surplus allocation to auditors and clients is stressful and time-consuming. Mistakes or unclear documentation can lead to compliance headaches and stakeholder disputes.

The hidden cost

What this is really costing you

In the insurance industry, actuaries must allocate surplus earnings across participating contracts—often by pulling policy terms from DocuSign, running calculations in Excel, and drafting rationale for audit review. This manual process eats up 1.6 hours weekly, mostly spent cross-checking spreadsheets and preparing documentation for compliance teams. At an average actuarial rate of $30/hour, that's $2,320 per year wasted on repetitive surplus allocation tasks.
