Insurance
A certificate of insurance is the document a company hands over to prove it carries coverage. The standard certificate of liability insurance packs producer, insured, and a coverages grid of separate policies into one page, and real-world certs arrive as carrier-branded forms, broker-system exports, and plain-letter proofs that say the same thing in a different shape. Sensible converts certificates of insurance into structured JSON for vendor compliance and COI tracking.

The standard certificate has a defined layout, but the certs you actually receive drift from it. Carrier systems, broker software, and plain-letter proofs each render the same coverage differently, the coverages grid stacks multiple policies with their own numbers and limits, and the parts that matter for compliance hide in free-text endorsement language. Positional rules pin the standard boxes; LLM parsing handles the certs that don't follow the form.
01
Most certs use the standard layout, but revisions differ and plenty arrive as carrier-branded forms or plain coverage letters that never touch it. Fingerprints identify the form so the right configuration runs, and LLM parsing reads the off-form certs into the same schema as the standard ones.
02
One certificate lists several policies stacked in a grid: general liability, auto, umbrella or excess, workers comp. Each row carries its own insurer letter, policy number, effective and expiration dates, and a column of limits. Sensible reads the grid as structured rows so each policy's number, dates, and limits stay tied together instead of collapsing into one blob.
03
Whether a holder is an additional insured, and whether waiver-of-subrogation or primary-and-non-contributory language applies, lives in the Description of Operations free-text box and referenced endorsement form numbers. Hybrid extraction pulls those clauses and flags low-confidence reads for review rather than guessing compliance.

Solutions engineers handle plan, build, deploy, and adjust on your behalf. You see clean JSON in your API response. Same engine as self-serve, just with the configuration work outsourced.
What's included
01Plan.Engineers review your samples and pick the right method
02Build.SenseML configs written from your samples
03Deploy.Same engine as self-serve, ready for production
04Adjust.We update configs when formats shift or new edge cases appear
05Integrate.Help with custom integration into your downstream systems
Every compliance workflow maps the certificate to its own schema, so we build the config around your fields rather than a fixed list. These are the fields COI teams pull most often; we map whatever else your vendor-onboarding or tracking workflow needs.
01
Parties
Producer name and contact, named insured and address, insurers A through F with NAIC numbers, certificate holder name and address, authorized representative, certificate number and issue date
02
Coverages & limits
Per policy: coverage type (general liability, automobile, umbrella/excess, workers comp), insurer letter, each-occurrence and aggregate limits, combined single limit, employers liability limits
03
Policy terms & holders
Policy numbers, effective and expiration dates per coverage, additional-insured status, waiver of subrogation, primary-and-non-contributory language, and the Description of Operations text

}Sensible processes certificates of insurance across carriers, brokers, and submission channels. Fingerprints identify the certificate revision so the right configuration runs, and non-standard certs can be configured in hours. The extraction logic is explicit in SenseML, not buried in prompt tuning.

Answers about certificate revisions, the multi-policy coverages grid, and pulling additional-insured and endorsement language.
Yes. Whether a holder is an additional insured, and whether waiver-of-subrogation or primary-and-non-contributory language applies, lives in the free-text Description of Operations box and referenced endorsement form numbers. Hybrid extraction pulls those clauses and flags low-confidence reads for review rather than guessing compliance.
Each policy is read as a structured row, so general liability, auto, umbrella or excess, and workers comp keep their own insurer letter, policy number, dates, and limits tied together instead of collapsing into one blob.
By default Sensible pulls producer, named insured, insurers A through F with NAIC numbers, certificate holder, and the full coverages grid (type, policy number, effective and expiration dates, and limits per policy). Additional-insured status, waiver of subrogation, and primary-and-non-contributory language come from the Description of Operations text. Those fields live in configuration, so you add, drop, or reshape what gets extracted to fit your workflow.
Sensible reads any certificate layout. The library covers the standard liability certificate (2016/03 and earlier revisions), property coverage certificates, carrier-branded forms, and plain-letter proof-of-coverage documents, with fingerprints that pick the right config per revision. A non-standard cert or a layout you haven't sent before gets configured in SenseML.
