Effortless Expense Claims
with AI at KPMG

My Role

I designed the employee-side chatbot experience, collaborating closely with senior UI/UX designer Eng Jia Yi, who focused on the admin (claim manager) dashboard to ensure a smooth claim review and approval process.

Problem

At KPMG, employees were struggling with an outdated, manual expense claim system that was slow, error-prone, and inefficient. Employees often worked under tight schedules and found it challenging to submit claims on time, track policy limits, and follow reimbursement processes, which resulted in frustration and increased compliance risks.

The challenge

How might we leverage AI to make expense claims faster, easier, and more compliant for both employees and approvers within KPMG?

Solution

To address these challenges, we designed an AI-powered chatbot integrated with Microsoft Teams, a tool employees already use daily. This integration allowed us to streamline and accelerate the reimbursement journey by:

Using OCR to extract and input receipt details
Automating the data entry process
Providing real-time policy compliance guidance
Offering a centralized dashboard to help employees track claims and view status updates

For claim managers, we provided a dedicated dashboard to facilitate the efficient review and approval of claims. This solution ensured a seamless, efficient, and compliant process for both employees and approvers.

Outcome

ClaimNow has been used in multiple innovation workshops at KPMG Digital Village to showcase the power of AI-driven value creation.

"A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to ClaimNow! The demo today was a success—20 people from “Enterprise Singapore” shared today that they would love to have ClaimNow right now! That’s a testament to the power of what we’ve built together. In just 2-3 weeks, part-time, we turned an idea into a compelling AI-powered use case—blending AI UI/UX design, tech POC with real data, and a well-crafted story. This is exactly what it means to embrace an AI mindset—moving fast, iterating smart, and delivering impact.

Really proud of the team—this is the new way of working, and you’ve all shown what’s possible. Great job, everyone!"
