Overview
FNOL (First Notice of Loss) is a workflow for first notice of loss intake, initial claims assessment, and structured claim triage.
It supports end-to-end early-stage claims handling — claimant capture, incident validation, coverage checks, preliminary loss estimation, compliance review, and an approval/recommendation outcome — in one streamlined workflow.
What you get: a structured table of extracted claim fields you can review, edit, and export.
