Overview / Description
Explain My Policy is an AI-powered insurance policy analyzer that converts dense policy PDFs into plain-language summaries for policyholders who want to understand their coverage without legal expertise. Upload any insurance policy — health, auto, home, life, or travel — and the tool produces a coverage score, risk breakdown, and severity-coded alerts within 60 seconds.
The core workflow is straightforward: drop a policy PDF into the app, and the AI reads every clause, condition, and exclusion. A coverage score expressed as a percentage appears immediately alongside a risk-alert panel that separates findings into Critical, Warning, and Info levels, surfacing waiting periods, coverage gaps, and hidden exclusions that most people miss in the fine print.
Beyond the static summary, Explain My Policy includes a chat interface where users can ask plain-language questions — such as "Am I covered if my basement floods?" — and receive answers that cite specific sections of their uploaded document. The chat is available in English, Spanish, and Hindi, making the tool accessible to a broader range of policyholders.
The app requires no account creation to get started, and documents are processed over encrypted connections without being sold or retained beyond the analysis session. Basic analysis and chat are available for free; a Pro tier adds risk scoring, unlimited uploads, vendor insights, and priority AI processing. The tool is positioned as a mobile-first experience, available on the App Store, though the homepage also supports drag-and-drop PDF upload for desktop use.
