An AI receptionist for insurance agencies that collects the quote details before the licensed agent calls back.

An insurance agency's day is a stream of quote requests, certificate-of-insurance requests, and policy changes. The calls that become new business are mixed in with calls that are pure service work.

Why the phone matters for insurance agencies

Service work such as certificates, ID cards, and address changes eats agent time, while quote calls need a fast, informed response. Splitting the two on the first call means the agent's licensed time goes to selling.

Calls it answers

  • Quote requests for auto, home, and small-business coverage, with details collected
  • Certificate-of-insurance and ID-card requests passed to service staff
  • Policy change and billing questions routed correctly
  • Claims calls routed to the carrier's number or your claims contact
  • After-hours calls with a clear claims instruction

Calls it makes

Outbound calling only goes to people who gave you their number and agreed to be contacted. In the US, AI-generated voices are treated as artificial under consumer calling rules, so we do not build cold-calling.

  • Calling back quote requests, where the person gave you their number
  • Renewal reminders to customers who agreed to contact
  • Confirming appointments with a licensed agent

What it collects before anything reaches you

  • Name and callback number
  • Type of coverage wanted
  • Basics for the quote: vehicle or property details, drivers or business type
  • Current carrier and renewal date, if the caller shares
  • Best time for a call with an agent

When a person takes over

  • Anyone reporting a claim in progress or an accident
  • Questions about what a policy does or does not cover
  • Cancellation requests

Where it plugs in

Typically connected to an agency management system or CRM such as HawkSoft or Applied Epic where those allow, or a spreadsheet and shared calendar.

One thing to know up front

Insurance is a licensed activity. The agent must not explain coverage, recommend a policy, or bind anything. It collects information and hands off to a licensed agent, and your state and carrier rules decide what the script can say.

How a build works

  1. You describe how calls come inA short call about your real call types, hours, and what a good outcome looks like.
  2. We write the agent around your rulesYour script, your escalation rules, your wording for anything sensitive. You approve it before it takes a live call.
  3. It goes live on your numberCalls are answered by the agent and summaries land in your inbox, CRM, or phone.
  4. We review the calls and correct itEarly call logs are read and the agent is fixed where it handled something badly.

We are a Pakistan-based team and work with US businesses remotely, over calls and a shared project board, with no time-zone dependency on the live agent, which answers around the clock. See how we work with clients outside Pakistan.
