New: The State of AI Assurance 2026 is out — download it free.

A model sets the premium and decides the claim.

AI now shapes the core insurance decisions — who gets underwritten and at what price, which claims are flagged or fast-tracked, where fraud is suspected. These are decisions with direct financial and fairness consequences, and increasingly they’re made or influenced by models the business can’t fully explain.

Where a model decides a premium or denies a claim, explainability isn’t optional.

The regulatory picture

Who you answer to.

IRDAI expectations on fair and explainable decisioning, the EU AI Act’s treatment of insurance risk-assessment as high-risk, and anti-discrimination obligations on models that price or underwrite.

Explainability isn’t optional where a model decides someone’s premium or denies their claim.

What Qapitol assures

We map the AI across underwriting, claims and fraud, surface what can’t be defended for fairness and accuracy, and build the controls and evidence that make each decision explainable.
