The industry's automation effort has stalled in endless POCs. Generic AI doesn't understand the terrain. Consulting practices don't ship decision engines. Ellis exists to close that gap — and to do it with the trust insurance demands.
Ex-Head of AI at Qover, where he built the 100% autonomous claims programme powering Revolut at greater-than-human accuracy. 50,000+ AI claims solved (and counting). Now leading product and engineering at Ellis.
Ex-Head of Insurance Partnerships at Qover, where he launched the partnerships function from scratch and scaled it from $0 to $8m in revenue, dealmaking with large insurers, brokers and MGAs. Now leading commercial at Ellis.
A small, in-person team based in Paris. We're hiring deliberately — depth over headcount.
The problem in AI claims handling today
AI use cases tackle intake, triage, and minor verifications. The heavy lifting on complex coverage decisions remains untouched.
ROI is marginal until handlers can delegate the time-consuming work.
Each insurer interprets the same check differently. The rest lives nowhere on paper — only in handlers' heads as implicit, tribal knowledge.
Without this knowledge, accuracy caps at 80%, while the bar sits at 99%.
Claim history, fraud scans, depreciation rules — each in a different system. If the AI can't access them, the assessment is half-finished.
Handlers won't trust an analysis they have to re-stitch by hand.
Compliance and security gate every deployment — rightfully so. Regulators demand specific documentation, and the bar is high.
The most accurate system in the world doesn't go live without it.
How Ellis addresses it
50+ specialised agents run every check — evidence, coverage, fraud, depreciation, outcome — from first notice to closed decision. Not the easy 20%. The whole claim.
A dedicated calibration layer ingests handler feedback and edge-case arbitrages, updating decision rules without retraining any model. Tribal knowledge becomes the engine's operating logic — versioned and reversible.
EU-processed, ISO 27001-aligned, GDPR and EU AI Act ready. DPA, sub-processor register, and decision explainability documentation available from day one.
