The claim is now settled before the adjuster arrives
the claim is now settled before the adjuster arrives: ai straight-through processing jumped from 10 percent of standard claims to 70-90 percent, lemonade settles in two seconds, and a chinese truck driver got a damage payout in minutes from a phone photo. allianz cut food spoilage claims from days to hours with seven agents.
the proof of loss is becoming the payout.
Context
Verified sources: Allianz said on Nov 3, 2025 it launched its first agentic AI to automate food spoilage claims, cutting processing from days to hours, and its Project Nemo coordinates seven specialised AI agents across the claims workflow. Lemonade settled a claim in two seconds in June 2023 (Insurance Times, Jun 16, 2023).
Industry analysis from actuary.info (Jun 12, 2026) puts straight-through processing at 70 to 90 percent on eligible transactions at leading adopters, against a 10 to 15 percent baseline before AI.
Allianz's seven agents, days to hours, and Lemonade's two seconds match their sources. The Lemonade two-second claim is from 2023 and was a single UK claim, not a standing speed. The 10 to 70-90 percent jump is a vendor and analyst benchmark whose baseline varies (10 to 15 percent in one source, 7 percent in another). The truck driver's phone-photo payout is not seen in the sources read, so unsupported here, not refuted.
