Transforming claims resolution at Parasol: Accelerating outcomes with Platform Engineering
Parasol, a fictional insurance provider, found itself at a critical juncture when mounting claim volumes and slow turnaround times threatened both its customer relationships and employee morale.
In this session, we explore how Parasol overcame these challenges by combining open source AI, practical platform engineering, and a culture of community-driven innovation. At the heart of this transformation were cutting-edge tools which empowered developers to experiment rapidly in their own “inner loop” while central platform teams maintained production-ready stability.
We’ll show how Parasol pinpointed strategic priorities, streamlined software delivery through a dual-loop model, and embraced the open source principles to unify teams around a shared goal of serving the customer. The result was more efficient claim handling, smoother collaboration, and a major boost in customer satisfaction.
Attendees will learn practical steps to replicate this success: from building a self-service (AI) environment to weaving in automation for security and compliance checks This talk offers a clear blueprint for unlocking transformative business outcomes.
