Automated AXIS Experience Study Summaries
After each experience study run, WebRun opens AXIS, pulls the actual-to-expected results by product and assumption, compiles the A/E ratios into a Google Sheet, drafts a plain-English summary email in Gmail, and leaves it unsent for the assumptions committee to review.
How do I draft an experience study summary automatically?
After each experience study run in AXIS, WebRun pulls the actual-to-expected ratios by product and assumption, logs them to a Google Sheet next to the prior period's results, and drafts a plain-English summary in Gmail highlighting anything outside your normal range. It leaves the draft unsent, so the assumptions committee reviews it before it goes out.
- A/E ratios outside the normal range are flagged the moment a study run finishes
- The committee reviews a plain-English draft instead of a raw AXIS output file
- Every summary is reviewed by an actuary before it reaches the committee

Questions, answered
Will it send the summary to the committee on its own?
No. WebRun only drafts the summary in Gmail and leaves it unsent. An actuary reviews the findings and sends it, so no experience study conclusion reaches the committee without a human check first.
Does it decide whether an assumption needs to change?
No. It only flags which A/E ratios sit outside your normal range. Whether to update an assumption stays a judgment call for your actuaries, informed by the summary, not made by WebRun.
How far back does it compare results?
It compares this study's A/E ratios to the prior study's result by default, so the summary shows the committee whether experience is trending toward or away from the current assumption.
