AI teams miss insurance context
Many proposals sound technically strong, but do not account for underwriting, claims, distribution, compliance and operating reality.
Data and AI for Belgian insurance
AI solutions that fit how insurance actually works.
AI projects in insurance succeed when the people building them understand the business. That's the principle VN Consulting was built on. For more than 14 years, we've delivered data and AI projects across the Belgian insurance sector — for P&V, Belfius Insurance, Baloise, ERGO and others. We help insurers and brokers build solutions that fit how insurance actually works, combining deep domain expertise with hands-on AI and data capabilities. We're direct about what's worth doing — and what isn't.
Recognizable problems
Most AI projects stall on context, not technology.
AI in insurance needs more than a model or tool. The solution has to fit products, processes, regulation, data and the way teams make decisions.
Data is fragmented and not trusted enough
Structured data, documents, reporting and definitions are not aligned enough to make AI useful and safe.
Strategy remains too generic
Ideas stay in slide decks without sharp choices around use case, data foundation, risk, regulation and measurable business value.
Services
The full chain: data foundations, data quality and AI.
AI is only as good as the data underneath it. VN Consulting combines strategic advice with hands-on delivery across the full data and AI chain.
Data foundations
A reliable data foundation for reporting, analysis, automation and AI applications that can be used in daily operations.
Data quality and governance
Business glossaries, data quality frameworks, ownership and working agreements that create meaning, trust and control.
Machine learning and AI
Selection, design and delivery of realistic AI applications, including RAG, AI agents and combinations of structured and unstructured data.
Insurance and brokers
Focus areas where insurance knowledge makes the difference.
RAG and AI agents
AI applications that make documents, procedures, product information and case context usable without losing control.
Structured and unstructured data
Combining tables, reports, documents, e-mails and case information for better insight and automation.
Regulatory requirements
Support for contexts such as SII, IFRS, AML, CRS/FATCA and other data-intensive requirements.
Business glossaries and data quality
Shared definitions, quality rules and governance that let reporting, analytics and AI speak the same language.
Approach
Clear, phased and grounded in your operating reality.
1. Diagnose
We map processes, data, reporting and ambitions without unnecessary complexity.
2. Prioritize
We choose the initiatives with the best balance of value, feasibility and risk.
3. Design and build
We create solutions that teams can use and the organization can control.
4. Transfer
Knowledge, choices and documentation do not stay with the consultant, but land in your organization.
Independent consultant
Data clarity before AI acceleration.
