Leveraging AI for Smarter Risk Selection
The agency sells policies for dozens of carrier partners across the US, leveraging FutureProof's risk selection technology. The company states that this expansion builds on its success with its AI-enabled property Managing General Agent (MGA), further solidifying its role as a "leading innovator in the insurance industry."
Unlike traditional agencies, FutureProof Insurance Agency applies AI-powered risk assessment to ensure it sells profitable policies for its carrier partners. "This additional risk filter allows FutureProof's agency to provide unique value by aiming to generate profitable portfolios for its carrier partners. This addresses a major pain point for carriers that sometimes struggle with agencies that generate low-performing business," the company explained.
