Loss Run Analyzer

Ingests multi-year loss runs, normalizes carrier formats, and produces a frequency-severity narrative plus remediation talking points you can hand straight to an underwriter.

[ core systems & integration architecture ]

Ingests loss runs from wherever they arrive, normalizes carrier formats, and attaches the analysis to the submission in your core system.

[ mcp microservice interface ]

This module ships as an MCP microservice — lossrun-mcp. It consumes governed tools from the core-system adapters and publishes its own, so your assistant, orchestrator, or another module can call it directly. No credentials ever reach the model runtime, and every write lands in the human gate.

Consumes from core systems

  • gw_extract_loss_run
  • ivans_latest_download
  • acord_parse_form

Provides to other agents

  • analyse_loss_historyread

    Frequency, severity and trend from raw loss runs

  • compare_to_classread

    Benchmark an account against its class code peers

[ implementation playbook ]

How an agency actually stands Loss Run Analyzer up — read-first, human-gated, and measured from day one.

Setup, in order

  1. 1

    Gather a sample of loss runs from your top five carriers — every carrier formats them differently, and that chaos is exactly what the analyzer absorbs.

  2. 2

    Define your standard output: the summary format your producers and underwriters actually want to read.

  3. 3

    Connect the intake channel where loss runs arrive (usually email or a carrier portal download folder).

  4. 4

    Set the analysis rules: lookback period, loss-ratio calculation, open-claim treatment, and large-loss thresholds.

  5. 5

    Run parallel for a month: the analyzer summarizes every loss run, and a person verifies against their own reading.

  6. 6

    Turn on the renewal trigger: loss runs for accounts 120 days out get analyzed automatically.

Agency use cases

Loss runs in minutes, not days

A carrier's 40-page loss-run PDF becomes a one-page summary — total incurred, loss ratio, open reserves, and the three losses that matter — before the producer finishes their coffee.

Renewal negotiation ammunition

The analyzer surfaces that the account's loss ratio improved for three straight years, giving the producer a documented case against a rate increase.

Prospect evaluation

On a new-business opportunity, the analyzer reads five years of loss runs and flags the frequency pattern that suggests a safety problem — before the agency commits capacity.

The first win to aim for

Loss-run turnaround from request to summary drops from days to same-day for every account in the pilot.

Guidance by agency role

01

Producers

Use the verified summary to frame renewal and prospect conversations, but inspect large losses and open reserves before presenting conclusions to a market.

02

Account managers

Confirm policy periods, claim status, and totals against the source document, then attach the approved summary to the renewal record.

03

Agency administrators

Set calculation conventions and verification samples, maintain carrier-format coverage, and monitor exception rates before automating renewal triggers.

[ where this sits in the vendor market ]

We recommend buying first wherever the market already solves a problem well. Here is what you can buy instead of building this — and where this module earns its place beside what you buy.

Products that already cover this ground

SixfoldQuote only

Loss run and certificate automation with a data layer

Buy it when: Agencies that want loss runs pulled and structured rather than chased by email.

Where it falls short: Teams that need the pipeline inside their own warehouse and cannot accept a vendor-hosted copy.
