InsightPlacement · AI-first placement and renewal

Every renewal prepared by agents. Every placement decided by your brokers

Ten agents work each commercial renewal from the 120-day mark to the bind order: loss runs, the SOV, the submission, the markets, the quotes and the proposal. Every figure comes from an engine, and nothing reaches a client, a carrier or a binder until a broker accepts it.

Agents · Prepared for you
A decision the placement compliance agent prepared on an illustrative Florida renewal: file the surplus lines diligent-effort affidavit for commercial property, resting on three admitted declinations, with what it couldn't settle, the five facts behind it, and Accept, Reject and Ask

A decision, prepared

The compliance agent drafts the surplus lines affidavit, cites the three admitted declinations it rests on and says what it couldn’t settle. A broker accepts, rejects or asks.

Agents · Quote comparison analyst
The quote comparison analyst's prepared selection on an illustrative contractor renewal: the recommended placement totals $696.1K, up 4.1% on expiring, with the pick on each line and why

A recommendation per line

Four lines, twelve quotes: the pick on each line with why — limit met, A- floor, admitted, cost, exclusions, retention. The prices are the engine’s.

Agents · Readiness finding
A readiness finding on an illustrative food manufacturer: 2 of 9 locations have SOV gaps (22.2%), the agent's reading, three source chips and Approve or Reject

The figure first, then the reading

The engine counts 2 of 9 SOV locations with gaps; the agent explains why markets will query them; the sources sit underneath as chips.

The problem

A renewal spends its first ninety days waiting and its last thirty rushing

Loss runs ordered late, an SOV with blanks, markets chosen from memory, quotes in a spreadsheet and a proposal written the night before.

Data

Chased too late

Loss runs take weeks. The SOV comes back with blanks an underwriter will price.

Submission

Thin packages

Assembled by hand from five sources; the gaps are found by the underwriter.

Markets

Appetite by memory

Who writes what, where and at what size lives in people’s heads.

Close

Paperwork at the end

Comparison, proposal, security check and surplus lines affidavit all land in the last week.

How it works

From a change on the placement to a signed decision

Analyze runs the ten agents in order. Every step after the engines is something a broker can open and check.

1Engine

The engines compute

Calendar, readiness, SOV and loss summaries, market ranking, the comparison, diligent effort — every figure with its source.

2AI

An agent reasons

Each agent reads numbered facts and answers in a fixed shape with Claude, citing them.

3Check

The grounding check

An answer carrying a number not in the facts is thrown away; the engine’s finding stands.

4AI

A decision is prepared

The order, request, plan, selection, proposal, affidavit or bind order — with reasons and facts.

5Broker

A broker decides

Accept, change, reject or ask. The answer is signed on the placement’s decision record.

No model configured, or the model fails: the engines’ findings are prepared in the same shape, and the screen says so.
The model explains; the engines compute. Every placement action is capped at ask first. The architecture in detail →
The Placement Workspace

One page per renewal, with the agents’ work on top

The hero says where the placement stands. Below it, seven zones: Agents, Readiness, Submission, Markets, Quotes, Proposal & bind, Compliance.

Placement Workspace · Renewal · Hotels and resorts (illustrative)
The Placement Workspace hero for an illustrative hotel group renewal: stage strip at Proposal, 29 days to effective, readiness 100 percent, expiring premium $470K, recommended $651K, +38.5 percent
The hero. Where the renewal stands: the stage strip, days to inception, readiness, expiring and recommended premium.
Placement Workspace · Markets
The market ranking for commercial property on an illustrative renewal: each carrier with security, fit, status and why, including capacity short of the $83.7M asked
Markets. Each carrier with its security, fit and status, and why — rating, appetite, and capacity short of the limit asked.
The agents

Ten placement agents, each with one job and a hard limit

Every agent action is capped at ask first, whatever the dial says: what goes to a client, a carrier or a binder is a person’s call.

Renewal readiness

The calendar and the checklist; prepares the loss-run orders.

Data-gap chaser

SOV and exposure gaps; prepares the request to the client.

Submission builder

The market-ready package; prepares the approval.

Market selector

Every carrier ranked per line; prepares the marketing plan.

Outreach drafter

One submission e-mail per market.

The autonomy dial

A senior look when it matters

A program 25% over the expiring, a short limit, late loss runs or marketing: the right role signs off.

A stale or gappy SOV and a one-quote line are flagged while there is still time.

Rules Studio · Placement controls
