- Flagship Solutions Powering Smarter Motor Insurance
1. RCM Mapper Service: Seamless Vehicle Data Mapping
One of the biggest pain points for insurers is converting unstructured, text-heavy vehicle registration data into standardized make-model-variant codes essential for underwriting and policy coding. This process has traditionally been error-prone, manual, and inconsistent — causing underwriting inaccuracies and operational friction.
Zoop’s RCM Mapper service solves this with:
- Over 99.8% uptime and sub-500 millisecond latency, ensuring rapid and reliable API responses.
- Integration of over 60 data points, drawing from multiple ID sources and state-level databases.
- Advanced source orchestration techniques that intelligently harmonize data from heterogeneous origins.
Far beyond simple mapping, this service acts as a trust enabler for digital motor insurance at scale, streamlining vehicle identification and reducing errors in the underwriting process.
2. IDB Service: Intelligent Vehicle Valuation
Correct vehicle valuation is critical to prevent both over-insurance and under-insurance, which can lead to financial risk for insurers and customers alike. Zoop’s IDB (Insured Declared Value) service ingests registration numbers and leverages:
- X showroom prices
- Depreciation rules
- Market data dynamics
to compute precise vehicle values in under half a second, maintaining exceptional uptime reliability similar to the RCM Mapper.
This capability empowers insurers to price policies accurately and mitigate risk associated with incorrect declarations.
3. AI-Driven Fraud Detection: Combatting Vehicle Classification Fraud
Fraudulent claims in motor insurance often stem from manipulated vehicle classifications — for example, Registered private vehicles used commercially, or two-wheelers misrepresented as heavy trucks.
Zoop’s fraud detection system:
- Validates vehicle classifications across categories — bikes, cars, commercial vehicles.
- Detects inconsistencies that could lead to incorrect quotes or underwriting errors.
- Helps insurers minimize fraud risk and improve operational accuracy.
By tightening controls on classification data, Zoop significantly enhances the integrity of underwriting and claims processes.
4. Motor Inspect: Next-Gen AI-Powered Vehicle Video Inspection
Perhaps the most exciting innovation from Zoop is their AI-powered vehicle video inspection tool — designed to revolutionize how inspection, risk assessment, and claims verification are conducted.
Key features include:
- Customer-guided smartphone video walkthroughs capturing detailed vehicle imagery.
- An AI engine that instantly analyzes footage to detect damages, tampering, and vehicle condition.
- Automated generation of comprehensive inspection reports within seconds.
This innovation accelerates policy issuance and claims processing, slashes the cost of manual inspections, and reduces fraud — all while ensuring consistent underwriting quality.
