Closing the gap between business and tech: Visionet’s accelerator playbook for insurance

Investing money in new tech won’t fix what’s broken. Most insurers know this by now. The real challenge is connecting business goals with actual execution, making sure every tool, process, or upgrade delivers measurable impact. That’s exactly what Visionet’s Accelerator Approach is built to do. 

Instead of long, bloated transformation programs that take years to show value, this approach breaks things down into smart, modular solutions where you can plug in where needed, see results fast, and scale from there. 

Why tech alone isn’t moving the needle 

Tight regulations, clunky legacy systems, and rising customer expectations - insurers are juggling a lot. Modernizing functions like underwriting or claims isn’t optional anymore. But here’s the reality check: 

  • 70% of digital transformation efforts in insurance fall short 
  • 74% still depend on legacy systems for underwriting and pricing 
  • 53% admit they’re not seeing real business value from digital projects 

These failures usually come from the same places: business and IT teams working in silos, massive projects with no clear roadmap, and tech that isn’t tied to any real business goals. Without shared ownership and measurable KPIs from the start, most transformation efforts stall out. 

The accelerator approach: Less talk, more traction 

Visionet’s accelerators are pre-built, customizable modules designed for specific business challenges across the insurance value chain. You don’t need to rebuild your systems from scratch, just plug in the pieces that solve your biggest problems first. 

Here’s how it works: 

1.Business comes first 

Before any tech is deployed, workshops with business leads (underwriting, claims, finance and distribution) help define the problem, success metrics, and workflows. This avoids the trap of implementing tech for tech’s sake. 

2.Modular and scalable 

Start small, like automating submission triage, and expand as  you see results. Each accelerator is API-ready, easy to integrate, and built for incremental rollout. 

3.Cross-functional ownership 

A governance team made up of business, IT, compliance, and data folks keeps delivery on track, manages risk, and aligns every sprint with business outcomes. 

3.Built-in performance monitoring 

Every accelerator comes with dashboards, alerts, and process tracking, so business users can actually measure what’s working, and course correct quickly when needed. 

Where the accelerator approach is already paying off 

Underwriting Accelerator 
Uses AI to triage new submissions and classify risk complexity. Early results show: 

  • 50% faster processing 
  • 40% more cases handled straight-through 
  • 30% fewer manual interventions 

Claims Assist Accelerator 
Automates claim intake and triage, extracts data from documents and voice notes, and flags fraud risks upfront. Insurers using it report: 

  • 35% shorter claim cycle times 
  • 20% drop in fraud-related losses 

Accel Actuarial Studio 
Cuts down time spent on repetitive actuarial work: 

  • Automated pipelines with compliance built in 
  • Faster simulations for pricing and reserves 
  • Clients have seen 30% quicker model iterations and 20% better forecast accuracy 

The payoff 

When insurers take this approach, they’re not just rolling out new tech. They’re building a digital muscle that keeps growing stronger with time. The benefits are clear: 

  • Faster ROI 
  • No need for large-scale re-platforming 
  • Smoother customer journeys 
  • Built-in compliance and fraud controls 
  • Flexibility to shift gears as business needs change 

Bottom line 

Visionet’s Accelerator Approach is built for insurers who are tired of half-finished initiatives and want practical, proven ways to get moving fast. 

It’s about aligning your people, your tech, and your goals from day one-so your transformation doesn’t just look good in a pitch deck, but actually works in production, where it counts.
