Ōmata: Group Induver Develops the AI-First Insurance Broker of Tomorrow
AI-First Insurance Broker Ōmata: AI In The Insurance World
The insurance sector is transforming fast, driven by AI. Those who don't invest in artificial intelligence today will lose ground tomorrow, in efficiency, client relevance, and competitiveness.
Group Induver is leading the way in implementing AI across its processes. That's thanks to our two-pronged approach: we're embedding AI structurally into Group Induver's existing operations, while simultaneously developing Ōmata, an innovative AI-first insurance broker in Belgium.
Ōmata serves as a secure innovation environment. What works there, we bring back to Group Induver. Always under personal supervision, always aligned with our human approach.
Why Is Group Induver Developing an AI-First Insurance Broker?
Group Induver is one of the five largest insurance brokers in Belgium. Continuously improving our service is part of our DNA.
At the same time, we want to help shape the adoption of AI in the insurance world. We have a strong vision and an ambitious AI team. We know what we're capable of and, just as importantly, what we shouldn't do.
We're already using AI extensively across Group Induver's service, but we wanted to create room to go further. We created that room by developing Ōmata: a completely new AI-first insurance broker in Belgium, built from the ground up, free from the limitations of existing systems.
Ōmata is an environment where new technology, new processes, and new forms of service can be tested, quickly, in a controlled way, and with the right safeguards in place.
Whatever works at Ōmata and proves its value flows back to Group Induver. Always under personal supervision. Always aligned with the human-centered approach that defines Group Induver.
What Is an AI-First Insurance Broker and Why Is Ōmata Different?
An AI-first insurance broker does not add AI to existing processes as an afterthought. AI is built into the way of working right from the start. This allows administrative tasks, policy analysis, quote comparisons, and client interactions to run smarter, faster, and more efficiently. It increases ease of use and added value for clients, who feel safe, confident, and taken care of.
The difference lies in the starting point. Existing organizations often build new technology on top of systems and processes that have grown over the years. That inevitably brings limitations. Ōmata starts from scratch and therefore has the freedom to organize new technology, processes, and services differently from the ground up.
Ōmata is therefore more than an innovation project. It's a controlled innovation environment where new ideas can be tested, refined, and validated quickly. Whatever works and proves its value can then flow back to Group Induver.
This approach fits a broader evolution in the InsurTech sector. AI, data analysis, and automation make it possible to innovate faster and serve clients better. Group Induver doesn't want to wait for that evolution, we want to actively help shape it.
With Ōmata, we create the space to learn faster, experiment faster, and innovate faster. Always in a controlled way. Always with the right safeguards. And always with one goal in mind: serving clients even better tomorrow than today.
Group Induver and Ōmata: Two Brands, One Ambition
Ōmata and Group Induver are two separate brands with their own identity, but the same ambition: serving clients even better tomorrow than yesterday. It's our shared conviction that applying AI correctly, under human supervision, will make that possible.
Group Induver and Ōmata strengthen each other: Group Induver lends its sector expertise to Ōmata, and Ōmata lends its technological freedom back to Group Induver. With Ōmata, we can achieve groundbreaking results faster than we could with Group Induver alone, and whatever works at Ōmata can flow back into Group Induver as well.
The Innovation Cycle: From Ōmata to Group Induver
The model is circular. Ōmata tests. Group Induver learns. Whatever works and creates value flows back to Group Induver, strengthening the service of the entire group.
Always under personal supervision. Always with the human expertise that defines Group Induver. Never as a blind takeover of whatever is technically possible.
That's what sets this model apart from a standard IT implementation. Ōmata isn't a supplier to Group Induver. It's a controlled innovation environment.
Only applications that are safe and demonstrably create value get rolled out further. Whatever flows back to Group Induver also needs to fit our way of working and our personal approach.
PwC states that the future of the insurance sector will be shaped by agile, digital organizations, where digital technology plays a decisive role.
Group Induver is building that agility not just by embedding AI into the existing organization, but also by creating Ōmata as a separate entity that can make full use of that agility.
What This Means for Clients, Employees, and the Sector
For clients of Group Induver, Ōmata means that the innovation being tested today in a secure innovation environment will benefit their service delivery tomorrow. Clients do not need to be early adopters of AI themselves. Group Induver takes on this responsibility.
For our AI team, Ōmata offers a unique opportunity: working on an AI-first insurance broker in Belgium from day one, backed by the support of an established group. That's a combination that's rarely found.
For the sector, Ōmata sends a signal: established players don't need to wait for outside disruption. They can organize that disruption themselves, in a controlled, responsible way, always in service of the client.
