Free · one table · no data on day one

Fewer wrong fraud referrals. Your data scientists keep the model; we do the column work.

For claims handlers and counter-fraud leads at UK insurers and MGAs. Your investigators can check only a share of claims. We help you refer the claims that matter: more fraud found per 100 referrals. The column work is keep or drop for each column.

Layout first, no claim data. You get the readiness review within 48 hours.

Made-up column names, to show the layout. Your review uses your own columns.

A referral model is judged by what investigators find.

Every wrong referral costs investigator time and slows an honest customer. The measure that matters is fraud found per 100 referrals. A claims fraud referral model that scores well in a notebook can still fail on this measure. Four causes are common:

A leak

A column that you know only after the claim closes. It helps the model in training. It is not there when you must decide.

An ID column

A policy or claim ID, or a column with very many values. The model learns the rows, not the pattern.

A rare outcome

If confirmed fraud is a very small share of rows, a model can look accurate and find almost nothing.

A short time span

Too little history, or history from before your rules changed. The model learns a pattern that is gone.

Two free steps. You send no data on day one.

Step 1 · no data

A free readiness review in 48 hours

Send the layout of one table, as 5 short answers (below). We return a review that lists:

  • likely leaks: columns you know only after the outcome
  • ID and very-high-cardinality columns
  • an outcome that is too rare, or a time span that is too short
  • a yes or no on whether a test makes sense
Step 2 · after a call

A free Refinery report on your data

If a test makes sense, we talk first. Then you send the data by a secure link. The data is pseudonymised and we delete it after 30 days.

Feature Refinery gives keep or drop for each column.

What we ask for in step 1

Five answers about one table, for example your closed-claims table. You do not need to send a single row.

  1. Column names and types. Paste the list.
  2. The outcome column and its rate. For example, confirmed fraud, and the share of claims that it covers.
  3. Rows and time span. How many claims, and over how many months.
  4. When each column becomes known. At referral time, or later.
  5. How you decide today. Rules, a model, or handler judgement.

The same two products that run on the platform.

Feature Refinery

Feature Refinery gives keep or drop for each column.

Model Crucible

Trains with several algorithms on the same data and keeps the best three. You compare them by wrong decisions, F1, precision and recall, and you choose the balance between missed cases and wrong decisions.

Short answers

Do I need to send claim data now?

No. Step 1 needs only the layout of one table. Data comes after a call, and only if a test makes sense.

What happens to my data in step 2?

You send it by a secure link. It is pseudonymised, and we delete it after 30 days.

Does this work with my data science team?

Yes, at any size. With no data scientist, you get a clear first view of which columns to keep. With one, it saves their time on column work. With a full team, it speeds up the slow part. Each column is marked keep or drop.

Does a model decide who committed fraud?

No. A referral model is an input for your investigators. It helps them see which claims to check first. People make the decision.

Who is this for?

Claims and counter-fraud analytics teams at UK insurers and MGAs that have a labelled history of referrals and outcomes, with no, one or many data scientists. Your team keeps its own models.
