Meridian cut claims resolution time by 42%
Try in PlaygroundExample brief
Meridian Insurance, a top-5 commercial insurer in the DACH region, reduced claims resolution time by 42% from 6.1 days to 3.5 days. This was achieved through an AI-assisted claims triage system, which also increased straight-through triage by 21 percentage points for eligible low-complexity claims. The results were based on a pilot involving 120 handlers and 18,000 claims from February to May 2026, with leakage staying within the existing control band. The key takeaway is that the value came from faster expert judgment, not from removing expert review.

Frequently asked questions
How do I render the Situation-challenge-approach-result template?
Send a POST to /v1/render/auto with a brief, or call create_slide via MCP with the structured intent shown below. The response includes an editable .pptx, a PDF, and a PNG. $0.05 per slide.
Does an AI write the slide?
No. SlideForge renders deterministically from a structured intent — no LLM draws the slide, so text is never mangled or fabricated. The optional brief path uses a router to pick the pattern, then renders deterministically.
Can I customize the colors and fonts?
Yes. Pass a theme_id to apply a built-in or custom brand theme; the layout stays the same.
