Van Ameyde is the European market leader in claims management, loss adjusting and IT development for the insurance and risk management market. Van Ameyde Group handles Claims processing for over 1,000 corporate clients in the global insurance and risk management market. This means in total more than 1 million claims and incidents annually.

Increased degree of automation through AI and “Digital Employees” will support the continued growth through tackling the increasing volumes.
“This will strengthen the competitiveness of Van Ameyde in a number of ways. We observe a clear trend in Europe where our clients focus on the improvement of customer satisfaction, an efficient customer claims journey and a reduction of
loss ratio’s. The successful use of several innovative AI solutions – like the cooperation with Simplifai- positions Van Ameyde at the forefront of this, which means we will become even more relevant in securing our clients’ stories.” says Egon Scheers, Director Operations, Van Ameyde Group.
The European footprint, with operations in several countries, the complexity, and large volumes of documents involved means that this is a large and important contract for Simplifai.

banking and insurance sectors throughout Europe, where automated handling of emails and other documents are required.” says Bård Myrstad, VP of Simplifai.
