H One, a leading innovator in enterprise AI solutions and a trusted Microsoft partner, has emerged victorious at the highly competitive regional Microsoft Agentic AI Hackathon. The event, held in a hybrid format, brought together top technological talent from across the region to develop and showcase next-generation Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions. Team H One secured the win for Sri Lanka with two groundbreaking innovations designed to address critical challenges in the insurance and data analytics sectors.
The first of H One’s winning solutions is InsurGENT, a revolutionary platform that redefines the insurance claim experience. Powered by Microsoft Azure AI, InsurGENT offers a fully automated, intelligent verification system for both medical and motor insurance claims. It streamlines the process by automating the review of handwritten prescriptions and repair estimates, significantly reducing manual workloads and processing delays for insurers. For customers, InsurGENT delivers a seamless digital experience, offering 24/7 self-service, real-time claim updates, and faster resolution, ultimately enhancing customer satisfaction and operational efficiency for insurance providers.
Complementing InsurGENT is Nexis Engine, a secure, AI-driven chatbot engineered to democratize data access within organizations. Nexis Engine empowers both technical and non-technical users to interact with complex databases using natural language queries. The system automatically translates these queries into optimized SQL, providing real-time insights with integrated visualizations. Deployed securely via Azure AI Foundry, Nexis Engine prioritizes data privacy while enabling faster, insight-driven decisions and reducing reliance on specialized data personnel.
