58% broker submission-to-quote lift at a specialty insurer — GenAI broker portal

The challenge

Brokers submitted risks blind, waited days for a decline, and stopped submitting. Distribution had no visibility into where brokers were losing patience, and the appetite guide lived in a 47-page PDF.

Our approach

Step 01

Appetite guide as a conversation

Turned the PDF appetite guide into a grounded chat — brokers described a risk, the portal explained fit in seconds.

Step 02

Preliminary indication engine

For clear-appetite risks, portal produced a preliminary rate range in under a minute — bindable indication still required underwriter.

Step 03

Broker-preferred hand-off

One click converted the chat into a full submission, pre-populated for the underwriter.

Step 04

Distribution telemetry

Distribution leaders saw broker drop-off, common appetite mismatches and product gaps in near real-time.

Step 05

Guardrails on commitments

Portal never quoted a bindable number and always tagged indications with the underwriter accountable for confirmation.
