Agentic Process Outsourcing

Run the same book at a fraction of the cost.

Two decades of core replacements, cloud migrations and digital programmes. The average P&C expense ratio has not moved. Gangkhar's AI agents run policy administration, claims, renewals, billing and collections from an infrastructure layer that sits above your existing systems, leaving them in place. Carriers run the same book at a fraction of the cost. Platforms offer insurance without an insurance team.

The cost advantage in insurance is still unclaimed.

3Persistent operating constraints
Fragmented workflowsWork crosses systems, inboxes and teams
Manual execution and exception handling
Limitedend-to-end observability

Most insurers do not need another replacement programme. They need a governed operating layer that can execute across the systems already in place.

APO changes the unit of transformation: from replacing a core to improving a live workflow, with measurable controls and human oversight.
Insurers don't need another technology project.They need a modern insurance operating model.

One platform. Three layers of value.

Lens decides. Mesh acts. Every outcome sharpens the next decision.

01

Integrate and activate

Sherpa+

The product layer

Product configuration, underwriting rules, coverage validation, compliance, payment rails and settlement. The single source of truth every agent reads from, sitting alongside the core you already run.

02

Optimise

Sherpa+Lens

The AI optimisation engine

Machine learning segments the book and finds the price, the cover and the payment terms that suit each customer. Every outcome feeds the next decision, so the book sharpens while it runs.

03

Scale

Sherpa+Mesh

The agent fleet, and the APO engine

Governed AI agents run enrolment, validation, issuance, servicing, FNOL, adjudication, reconciliation, collections and renewals. Every action is validated against your live product rules and logged in full.

Join an ecosystem of insurers and digital platforms.

Gangkhar operates globally and keeps expanding. Insurers reach new distribution, digital platforms reach new products, and every new programme plugs into the network from day one. Where a partner is not connected yet, we connect them.

90%+Touchless on standard operations

Three returns from one programme.

01 · EfficiencyFewer touches

Lower operating effort

Manual handling drops out of enrolment, issuance, reconciliation and renewal. Fewer touches per case mean fewer reissues, less rework and a cost base that can move with volume rather than headcount.

02 · ProductivityPhased

Faster time to value

Delivery starts with a bounded workflow and expands through governed phases. Cycle times shorten while people retain exceptions and judgement calls.

03 · PerformanceMeasurable

Better commercial outcomes

Faster service, stronger retention and better attachment can improve the value of the book. Targets and baselines are agreed for each programme before deployment.

Programmes on the client's own core.

Control stays with you.

  • Every agent action logged, timestamped and auditable end to end
  • Decisions read from your live product and underwriting rules, so a rate or wording change takes effect at once
  • Human in the loop on defined thresholds, limits and exceptions
  • Product, pricing, risk appetite and the customer relationship remain yours
“Their approach to carrier connectivity, data governance, and product configuration reflects a mature understanding of the insurance value chain, well in excess of what is typical for an early-stage company.”Head of Alliances, Digital and Direct Marketing
