View recordingBuilding With LLMs in Professional Services: Lessons From ClaimGen by Maharram Mansimov
What happens when you put LLMs inside a human-heavy professional service? I’ll share what we learned building AI into the SR&ED claim process, from adaptive client interviews and document analysis to technical writing and verification. We’ll cover where LLMs created the most value, where they failed, why AI sometimes needs to challenge the user, and why the biggest opportunity turned out to be redesigning the workflow rather than simply generating the final output.
