Proposal Form OCR

Proposal Form OCR reads completed insurance proposal forms into structured fields, so a new business application does not need to be re-typed into a broker's or insurer's systems.

Proposal forms are usually handwritten or filled digitally before scanning, and their layout differs by insurer and product. Proposal Form OCR applies PolicyIQ | Extract's document reading capability specifically to this stage of the sales process, ahead of policy issuance.

A proposal form is where a policy's details first get written down, and any error introduced here tends to carry through to the issued policy. Reading the form automatically, rather than re-keying it, removes that repeated opportunity for mistakes between sales and underwriting.

What challenges does Proposal Form OCR address?

  • Proposal forms are often handwritten or filled inconsistently
  • Re-typing proposal details delays policy issuance
  • Errors in proposal data carry through to the issued policy
  • No structured handover from sales to underwriting

How does it fit into PolicyIQ | Extract?

Extracted proposal data passes through Data Validation before use, and can connect into a Sales CRM like the one inside PolicyIQ | One through the OCR API.
