The product accurately extracts and contextualises claims information and compares it to policy coverage, enabling claims’ handlers to spend more time directly with their customers and reduce the claims settlement time from weeks to minutes.
The funding will be used to drive forward Sprout AI’s go-to-market strategy, accelerate its growth and to continue to invest in product innovation and AI.
The investment will also be used to expand into new insurance lines and global territories, including North America.
Amadeus Capital Partners have backed Sprout AI since its seed stage and latest investment shows the confidence for the team’s ambition.

Sprout AI has patented technology that leverages Generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) for claims assessment and AI model training.
The investment from Amadeus and Praetura will be used to build this by further leveraging Generative AI within Sprout’s Claim Extraction module, extending the existing self-service capabilities for model training, and process automation.
There is a huge market potential in the global claims software sector, and with the team’s commitment to innovation and exceptional service, they are uniquely positioned to take advantage of the growing demand for their services, says David Foreman, Managing Director of Praetura Ventures.
The investment comes as the global claims processing software market is projected to reach $73 billion by 2030, growing at a rate of 8.3% per year from 2021 to 2030.
