Insurance back office automation for the servicing work behind every policy.
Less rekeying for your CSRs and account managers.
Every policy an agency writes comes with servicing work: check what the carrier issued, process the endorsements, send the certificates, key the data into the AMS and the ACORD forms. We build the automation that reads those documents and prepares each change, and your CSRs approve it before it goes anywhere.

Servicing work piles up behind every new policy
Policy checking waits for a quiet week
Comparing the issued policy against the binder, quote and application means reading it line by line. When the service queue is full it slips, and a wrong limit or a missing endorsement turns up at claim time instead of at issuance.
Certificates and endorsements share one inbox
Certificate requests, vehicle and driver changes and additional insured requests arrive by email in any format. A CSR reads each one, finds the account, and types the change into the AMS and the carrier portal.
ACORD data typed more than once
The insured name, FEIN, locations and schedules get keyed into the AMS, again into ACORD 125s and 140s, and again into carrier portals. Carrier downloads that disagree with the AMS add another round of manual fixes.
What we build for insurance agencies
Each of these is a real engagement shape. Open one to see how it works, what it needs from you, and where a person stays in the loop.
Any figures are targets we scope towards, not guarantees. What you actually get depends on your volume, your systems, and how much stays under human review.
Policy checking against the binder and quote
Checking each new or renewed policy against what was bound takes a careful read, and it is often the first task to slip when the team is busy.
Policy checking against the binder and quote
Checking each new or renewed policy against what was bound takes a careful read, and it is often the first task to slip when the team is busy.When a policy arrives, AI reads it alongside the binder, the quote and any requested changes, and lists every difference: named insured, limits, deductibles, forms, locations, vehicles and premium. A CSR reviews the list and decides what goes back to the carrier for correction.
How it works
- 01Pull the issued policy from the carrier download, the portal or the policy inbox
- 02Match it to the binder, quote and change requests on file for that account
- 03Compare declarations, schedules and forms line by line
- 04Produce a discrepancy list with the page reference for each item
- 05Route the list to the account's CSR, who requests corrections from the carrier
Where a person stays in the loop
The system reports differences. It does not decide which ones matter, and it does not contact the carrier.
- A CSR reviews every discrepancy list before a correction request goes out
- Policies the system cannot match to a binder go to a person
- Each review is saved with the reviewer's name and date for your E&O file
What it needs from you
- Access to issued policies (carrier downloads, portal exports or the policy inbox)
- Binders and quotes stored in your AMS or a shared drive
- Your current policy checking checklist, if you have one
Common questions
- Does policy checking automation work on every carrier's format?
- Carrier PDFs vary, so during scoping we test it on a sample of your own policies from the carriers you write with most. Pages the system cannot read reliably, such as poor scans, are flagged for a person instead of guessed at.
Typical build: 2 to 3 weeks·Aim: A policy checking record on every account
Talk through this oneEndorsements and certificates of insurance
Endorsement and certificate requests come in by email in any format, and a CSR rekeys each one into the AMS, the carrier portal and the certificate.
Endorsements and certificates of insurance
Endorsement and certificate requests come in by email in any format, and a CSR rekeys each one into the AMS, the carrier portal and the certificate.Each request is read, matched to the account and policy, and turned into a prepared change: the endorsement request for the carrier, the AMS update and a draft certificate with the holder and wording requested. Certificates asking for wording the policy does not support are held for review.
How it works
- 01Watch the service inbox for endorsement and certificate requests
- 02Identify the account, the policy and the type of change requested
- 03Draft the carrier change request, the AMS update and the certificate (ACORD 25 or your template)
- 04Check requested additional insured or waiver wording against the policy's endorsements
- 05Hold everything for CSR approval, then send it and log it to the account
Where a person stays in the loop
Nothing goes to a carrier or a certificate holder until a CSR approves it. Requests for coverage the policy does not show are flagged and never issued automatically.
- A CSR approves every certificate and endorsement request
- Additional insured and waiver requests the policy does not support go to the account manager
- Every issued certificate is logged against the account
What it needs from you
- Service inbox access (Outlook or Gmail)
- Your AMS, with an API or a reliable import path for activities and certificates
- Certificate templates and certificate holder lists
Typical build: 3 to 4 weeks·Aim: Certificate requests worked from one queue
Talk through this oneAI-assisted ACORD form workflows
Applications, supplementals and prior dec pages arrive as PDFs and photos, and staff key them into the AMS and onto ACORD forms by hand.
AI-assisted ACORD form workflows
Applications, supplementals and prior dec pages arrive as PDFs and photos, and staff key them into the AMS and onto ACORD forms by hand.AI pulls insured details, locations, vehicles, drivers and prior coverage out of the documents you receive and prefills the AMS record and the ACORD forms you use (125, 126, 127, 140 and others). Staff check each prefilled field against the source document before saving.
How it works
- 01Collect applications, prior dec pages, schedules and supplementals for the account
- 02Extract the fields each ACORD form and AMS screen needs
- 03Show each prefilled field next to the place in the document it came from
- 04Staff confirm or correct, then save to the AMS or export the forms
- 05Flag fields the documents do not answer so someone can ask the client
Where a person stays in the loop
Staff confirm every field before it is saved. Where the documents do not answer a field, the system leaves it blank and flags it.
- Every record is confirmed by a person before it is written to the AMS
- Low-confidence fields are highlighted for review
What it needs from you
- Sample applications and dec pages for your main lines of business
- The ACORD forms and AMS screens you fill most often
- AMS import or API access for new records
Typical build: 2 to 3 weeks·Aim: Records set up once, from the source document
Talk through this oneDownload reconciliation and renewal paperwork
Carrier downloads fail, duplicate or disagree with the AMS, and renewal files are put together by hand from the expiring policy and last year's applications.
Download reconciliation and renewal paperwork
Carrier downloads fail, duplicate or disagree with the AMS, and renewal files are put together by hand from the expiring policy and last year's applications.The system compares carrier download activity with the AMS record and lists the mismatches (premium, effective dates, missing policies, unmatched transactions) for a CSR to resolve. Ahead of each renewal it assembles the paperwork: an expiring coverage summary, renewal applications prefilled from the AMS, and a list of what still has to come from the client.
How it works
- 01Read the day's download activity and the matching AMS records
- 02List mismatches and expected policies that did not download
- 03Assign each exception to the CSR on the account
- 04Before renewal, build the file: expiring summary, prefilled applications, open items
- 05Hand the file to whoever runs the renewal
What it needs from you
- AMS reports or exports of download activity
- Access to expiring policies and prior applications
- Your renewal checklist and how far ahead of expiration it starts
Typical build: 3 to 4 weeks·Aim: Renewal files ready before the producer asks

Questions we get
What is insurance back office automation?
Insurance back office automation is software that handles the servicing work behind each policy so CSRs and account managers do not rekey it. At an independent P&C agency that means policy checking against the binder and quote, endorsement and certificate requests, ACORD form data entry, carrier download reconciliation and renewal paperwork. AI reads the documents and prepares each change, and a person approves it before it reaches a carrier, a client or the AMS.
Which back-office tasks can AI automate for an insurance agency?
The best candidates are high-volume servicing tasks that follow the same steps each time: policy checking, certificates of insurance, routine endorsements such as vehicle and driver changes, data entry from applications and dec pages, and download exception lists. Coverage advice and anything that commits the agency to a client stays with your licensed staff. Policy checking automation is a good first build because it takes careful reading and is easy to put off.
Does it integrate with my agency management system (Applied Epic, AMS360, HawkSoft, EZLynx)?
We connect where your AMS offers an API, an interface or a reliable export, and confirm which before quoting. Applied Epic, AMS360, HawkSoft and EZLynx each handle outside access differently, and some require a vendor partner program or a particular plan tier. We check API access, plan tier and partner requirements during scoping. Where a direct connection is not available, we build around exports and imports and tell you up front what that limits.
How much does back office automation cost for a P&C agency?
It depends on how many servicing workflows are in scope, whether your AMS has usable API access, and your monthly volume of policies, certificates and endorsements. The AI audit is free and ends with a scoped estimate. Builds are fixed-price against that scope, and ongoing support is a flat monthly fee covering hosting, monitoring, model and API costs, and fixes. There is no hourly billing. Our pricing page explains what moves the number.
Can automation handle ACORD form processing and policy data entry?
Yes, with staff confirming the result. AI extracts insured details, locations, vehicles, drivers and prior coverage from applications, dec pages and supplementals, then prefills the AMS record and the ACORD forms you use. Each field is shown next to the source it came from, and anything the documents do not answer is left blank and flagged. In AI-assisted ACORD form workflows like this, the system does the typing and your staff do the checking.
How secure is automated insurance back-office software?
It is built to keep client policy data restricted and logged. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, each workflow gets only the access it needs, every action and approval is recorded, and we work in your cloud account where possible. We never train models on your data, and you keep the source code. Your obligations under state insurance data security rules stay with the agency, so we document the controls we run and your compliance owner signs off.
What's the typical ROI of automating insurance agency operations?
Return comes from CSR time no longer spent rekeying and comparing, from discrepancies caught at issuance instead of at claim time, and from certificate requests that do not wait in an inbox. How large it is depends on your policy count, your mix of personal and commercial lines, and how manual servicing is today. The free audit looks at your current process first, so any estimate is based on your agency's numbers rather than an industry average.
How long does implementation take for an independent agency?
Most builds go live in two to three weeks from a defined scope. An AMS that needs vendor approval for API access, or a workflow that has to handle many carriers' formats, can take longer, which is why we scope before we quote. We usually start with one workflow, such as policy checking or certificates, prove it on your own accounts, and then add the next.
Will automation replace my CSRs or account managers?
That is not what we build it for. The goal is to take rekeying, line-by-line comparison and inbox sorting off your CSRs and account managers so they have time for clients and for the exceptions that need judgement. Every workflow keeps a person approving anything that goes to a carrier, a certificate holder or the AMS.
