OCU Group slashes insurance claims with the help of AI

By installing AI-powered dashcams across its 2,600-vehicle fleet, in addition to Samsara’s platform, OCU Group has met the challenge of rising insurance costs and unknowns in driver behaviour.

Through visibility into its fleet and driver behaviour, OCU Group has real-time access to camera footage for insurance claims defence and the ability to monitor, and act on, driver behaviour such as speeding or mobile phone use.

Since deploying Samsara, OCU Group has achieved a number of benefits, including:

• A 28% reduction YoY in motor insurance claims volume

• 70% of claims reported to insurers within 48 hours of OCU Group being notified

• 5% reduction in overall motor insurance premiums.

Chris Shorey, regional plant and transport manager at OCU Group, said: “In just eight months, we’ve achieved significant improvements in driver safety, claim management and operational efficiency. This rapid transformation shows the effectiveness of Samsara’s solutions and our team’s commitment to embracing new technologies.”
