01

Who is Zero Insurance?

Zero Insurance

Zero Insurance is an insurtech for claims processing: it handles claims on behalf of insurers, from file handover to settlement result. Three lines of business are currently in production, domestic and international.

What sets Zero apart from traditional claims handling: data arrives from the insurer, UNOY OS processes it in a structured way, and the settlement result is returned to the insurer. No claims handler reads the report manually; they only review critical matters.

The business model depends on processing being fast, scalable and traceable. Zero therefore built the core process not as internal software, but as a platform workflow on UNOY OS.

02

The challenge

What was difficult before.

Traditional claims processing is linear and staff-intensive: every report is read by a claims handler, documents are requested, data is transferred into the insurance system, the file is created. As case volumes grow, so do processing times, or headcount.

Zero Insurance wanted to do this differently: a claim comes in, a workflow runs. Missing documents are requested rule-based. Structured data is extracted. The file is created in the insurance system. Claims handlers review only critical matters.

The challenge: the result must be correct under insurance law. Not „approximately right“ as with a chatbot. But algorithmically traceable, with audit trail, with escalation in cases of uncertainty.

Voice

Why Zero relies on UNOY OS.

With UNOY we have taken claims processing to a new level. Routine runs rule-based, data arrives cleanly structured at the insurer.

Application

From insurer intake to settlement handover.

Three steps. Claim from the insurer in, assessed, settlement result returned.

04.01

Receipt

Receive data from the insurer.

01 · Receipt

The claim arrives at Zero from the insurer via email, secured API or encrypted data transfer. UNOY OS extracts structured data: date, location, type of loss, parties involved, matter reference number of the insurer.

Assessment

Claim checked against line-of-business rulebook.

02 · Assessment

UNOY OS checks against the line-of-business rulebook: completeness, insured event yes/no, loss amount, regulatory requirements. When clear-cut, the assessment runs through. When uncertain or disputed, the file goes to the claims handler with a rationale.

Routing Logic

Clear-cut case: Assessment runs through · Borderline (incomplete, facts disputed): Escalation to claims handler with rationale · No match: Stop, query back to the insurer.

Structured data is handed back to the insurer: settlement recommendation, complete file with all attachments, audit trail with every step. The insurer makes the final decision on the payout, on a fully prepared basis.

Learnings

What we learned.

Zero Insurance was the first insurer to deploy UNOY for the complete claims processing workflow in production. What we learned together:

Insurers do not want "90% accuracy." They want 100% traceability. The system does not make the payout itself, it prepares. Claims handlers approve where it is critical. UNOY OS structures the rest.

Each line of business has its own rulebooks and completeness criteria. The infrastructure must map this in a multi-tenant way, each line of business with its own workflow on a shared technical foundation.

06

Frequently asked

What you want to know.

Who decides on the payout?

The claims handler at Zero Insurance. UNOY OS prepares the file, checks completeness, and structures the data. The insurance decision is made by the person, on the basis of a fully prepared file.

How secure is policyholder data?

EU data residency in data centres certified to ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 42001 (AI Management), multi-tenant isolated per line of business. Insurance-specific compliance (BaFin/FMA) is built in. Audit trail per matter exportable.

Which lines of business are in production?

Three lines of business in production, domestic and international. We discuss specific lines individually; for competitive reasons we do not publish details here.

Can the system be transferred to other insurers?

Yes. The workflow structure per line of business is transferable to other insurers. Requirement: API-capable insurance systems and a dedicated rulebook per line of business.

Who is liable for a processing error?

Zero Insurance. UNOY OS is the delivery infrastructure. Insurance liability rests with the insurer through its approving claims handler.

What happens if UNOY ceases operations?

On contract termination, Zero Insurance receives all workflows, line-of-business rulebooks and audit logs as an export. The rulebooks are documented as JSON logic, portable to another provider or operable locally. Self-mode also means: no lock-in concern.
