How a Dutch Insurer Is Building the Knowledge Foundation for Enterprise AI

Before an organization can deploy AI at scale, it needs one thing most teams overlook: a governed knowledge layer. Unigarant, a leading Dutch insurance company and subsidiary of ANWB (Royal Dutch Touring Club), is addressing this head-on by selecting eGain's AI Knowledge Hub as the foundation for its enterprise AI strategy.

The announcement signals a growing recognition among insurers and service-heavy organizations that trustworthy AI starts with structured, governed knowledge, not just model access.

What Unigarant Is Building

With approximately 700 employees and customers across phone, email, WhatsApp, live chat, mail, and self-service channels, Unigarant needed a platform that could:

  • Modernize knowledge management with stronger governance and accountability
  • Improve advisor and claims handler productivity with fast, contextual answers
  • Deliver consistent service across every channel
  • Enable Enterprise AI Search and AI-driven automation
  • Extend trusted content to brokers and policyholders through self-service portals

eGain's platform combines enterprise search, guided knowledge delivery, and AI reasoning to surface contextual answers and process guidance in real time.

The Signal for Operational AI Leaders

Chief Digital Officer Peter Leeveer put it plainly: "Knowledge is the fuel for AI. With eGain, we are not only improving service quality and efficiency today, but also establishing the trusted knowledge foundation required for the next generation of AI-powered experiences."

This is the pattern emerging across regulated industries: AI adoption without knowledge governance creates compliance risk and inconsistent outputs. Organizations investing in AI infrastructure now are making knowledge management a first-class concern, not an afterthought.
