Allianz and Anthropic Forge Global Partnership to Advance Responsible AI in Insurance
Allianz SE and Anthropic have entered a global partnership to scale responsible AI across Allianz Group. The focus: empower employees, move faster on critical workflows, and raise the bar on accuracy and auditability across insurance operations.
"With this partnership, Allianz is taking a decisive step to address critical AI challenges in insurance. Anthropic's focus on safety and transparency complements our strong dedication to customer excellence and stakeholder trust. Together, we are building solutions that prioritize what matters most to our customers while setting new standards for innovation and resilience" - Oliver Bäte, CEO of Allianz SE
"Insurance is an industry where the stakes of using AI are particularly high: the decisions can affect millions of people. Allianz and Anthropic both take that very seriously, and we look forward to working together to make insurance better for those who depend on it" - Dario Amodei, CEO and Co-Founder of Anthropic
Three projects moving from strategy to execution
1) Empowering people and reimagining code with AI
Allianz will integrate Anthropic's Claude models into an internal AI platform available to all employees. For engineering teams, Claude Code is already speeding up development for thousands of Allianz developers worldwide.
To connect data safely across tools, Model Context Protocols (MCPs) will help teams access and combine information from multiple sources without copying data across systems.
2) Agentic automation for speed and customer experience
Allianz and Anthropic are building custom AI agents to handle multi-step workflows at scale-covering tasks from intake documentation to claims processing across lines like motor and health. Expect fewer manual touchpoints, quicker first payments, and clearer communication with claimants when it matters most.
Allianz will keep a human-in-the-loop for sensitive or complex cases, so employees step in and ensure claims are handled with care.
3) Transparency and compliance built in
The partnership includes AI systems that log every decision, the reasoning behind it, and the data sources used. This creates a full audit trail for insurance-specific risks and regulatory requirements, improving traceability and control.
Why this matters for insurance professionals
- Claims operations: Faster FNOL processing and fewer handoffs without losing oversight.
- Compliance: Decision logs and data lineage support audits and model governance.
- Engineering: Claude Code reduces toil, improves consistency, and accelerates delivery.
- Data security: MCPs enable access across systems while limiting unnecessary data movement.
Allianz's recent AI outcomes
Allianz Partners runs a voice assistant for roadside assistance in multiple languages that prioritizes urgent calls. Allianz Australia automated food-spoilage claims after power outages, cutting turnaround time. In Germany, Allianz Versicherungs-AG can pay pet insurance invoices within four hours using AI.
These use cases blend automation with human oversight-exactly the balance this partnership aims to scale.
What to watch next
- Rollout of the internal AI platform and how quickly teams adopt Claude for daily work.
- Operational metrics: first-payment speed, claim cycle time, leakage, and customer satisfaction.
- Controls: model governance, bias testing, and monitoring tied to regulatory obligations.
- Integration depth: MCP-powered connections into core systems without creating new silos.
