These features make Softlogic Life the first company in Sri Lanka to integrate AI capabilities of this magnitude into annual report analysis, setting a new benchmark in corporate reporting landscape in Sri Lanka.
Softlogic Life introduced the Annual Report Analyzer earlier this year as Sri Lanka’s first AI-powered tool that analyses and interprets information from its Annual Reports by employing advanced AI capabilities and machine learning algorithms to swiftly process vast amounts of data. This offered stakeholders a quicker, simpler, and more efficient means of accessing critical information. With this introduction, the traditional approach to reading annual reports underwent a profound transformation.
As part of the new features embedded into the Annual Report Analyzer, the Artificially Intelligent agent termed Lifey, serves as a centrepiece of this tool. This upgraded feature “Lifey” is an advanced AI assistant capable of interacting with users through voice and text in real-time to extract, analyze, and present data from the company’s annual report. With its ability to perform complex analysis, this AI agent offers a seamless and intuitive experience, empowering stakeholders to explore and understand key financial and operational metrics without the need for manual searches or technical expertise.
“Softlogic Life has always been in the forefront of introducing many industry-firsts and Sri Lanka-firsts. Sri Lanka’s first video annual report, ‘Generate Your Own Report’ feature, the interactive dashboard are some amongst them. We developed the Annual Report Analyzer to empower our stakeholders with rapid, efficient access to extensive data, eliminating the time-intensive process of manual analysis,” said Nuwan Withanage, Chief Financial Officer of Softlogic Life. “This tool translates complex information into clear, actionable insights, making even the most intricate details easily understandable. As we continue our journey with AI, we are now strengthening this tool with new features to further streamline access. As the Life insurer with the largest customer base in Sri Lanka (1.5Mn), we have a significant responsibility towards transparency and governance. Making our information easily accessible to every stakeholder in a smarter, more sustainable way, reflects our commitment to this responsibility.”
Softlogic Life’s innovative approach to presenting corporate information sets a new benchmark. By integrating features like a voice-enabled AI agent and dynamic visualizations into their Annual Report Analyzer, they continue to enhance technological excellence.

Combined with automatic visualization that simplifies data-heavy queries and transforms complex data into dynamic, easy-to-understand graphs, the Annual Report Analyzer offers stakeholders a seamless experience, delivering clarity, efficiency, and actionable insights to meet their needs effortlessly.”
