FIELD GUIDE

How Kai Handles Calls for Insurance Agency

Kai is trained around the actual calls that reach insurance agency teams: urgency, qualification, routing, booking, and follow-up.

New Quote

Kai Captures the Quote While Producers Work Renewals

01

A live quote call is your best new-business lead. Kai gets every detail so a producer can quote fast.

Kai gets the policy type — auto, home, or commercial — the current carrier, and how the caller heard about you.

It books a producer callback on the right calendar and writes the lead to your record before the call ends.

Triage

Kai Sends Claims to the Carrier and Service to Your Team

02

A new quote, an active claim, and a COI request should not be handled the same. Kai sorts them.

Active claims are hard-transferred straight to the carrier’s claims line — Kai never takes loss details it shouldn’t.

Certificate-of-insurance requests are captured with their deadline, and same-day ones are flagged urgent.

Active claim

Intake stops and the caller is hard-transferred to the carrier’s claims line.

COI request

Holder details and the exact deadline captured, with same-day flagged as urgent.

Lead Handoff

Kai Sends Ready-to-Quote Leads Into Your Agency System

03

The goal is not a longer transcript. The goal is a quote-ready lead a producer can act on.

Kai can pass leads into Applied Epic, EZLynx, HawkSoft, AgencyZoom, GoHighLevel, Google Calendar, Zapier, or custom workflows.

Each new-business lead includes policy type, current carrier, contact, and source so producers quote without re-keying.

Solution Pack // INSURANCE AGENCY

Open the Insurance Agency pack and inspect how Kai works.

The pack shows the working configuration behind the agent: the intake fields it asks, the prompt rules it follows, the routing logic it uses, the SMS and owner handoff it produces, and the eval calls it must pass. You can read the parts before you trust the phone line.

Intake Structure

4 required fields and 7 optional fields map the caller into a clean job summary.

Prompt System

9 guardrails control pricing, scheduling, escalation, tone, and what Kai must never promise.

Failure Modes

6 known mistakes are turned into operating rules before the agent ever answers a real call.

Eval Coverage

6 vertical evals test hard callers, edge cases, and setup-specific behavior for this pack.

CLAIMS HARD-TRANSFER — NEVER TAKE A CLAIM. If the caller mentions an accident, a crash, a collision, a fire, a flood, a break-in, a theft, water damage, hail damage, an injury, or any active loss — STOP the intake. Say: 'I want to get you to the right perso...

NEVER QUOTE A PREMIUM OR RATE on the call. Quotes depend on driver records, prior claims, property details, credit, and carrier appetite — none of which can be priced blind. If asked: 'The agent runs the quote once we have a few details — they'll come back...

NEVER DISCUSS COVERAGE INTERPRETATION. Do not tell the caller what their policy covers, whether something is covered, whether a deductible applies, or what limits mean. 'That's exactly what the agent can walk through with you — I want to make sure they have...

Money & resolution

Billing dispute or payment problemStays with your team

Resolving an autopay or lapse dispute stays a producer conversation.

Kai captures the issue and routes it to the producer for callback.

Rate-increase or non-renewal complaintStays with your team

Walking through underwriting and the carrier’s reasoning is a licensed-agent job.

Kai acknowledges without defending the carrier and books the agent callback.

Kai owns the front-office call — answer, qualify, capture, book, remind, and the first-touch follow-up. The judgment calls — negotiating money, resolving a complaint — stay with your team, and Kai still answers, documents, and hands them straight to you.

Kai is built for the messy, high-intent moments where speed, context, and calm follow-through decide who gets the job.

Producers Miss New-Quote Calls

What breaks

Your producers are working renewals and service when a quote shopper calls. It goes to voicemail, and by the time anyone calls back the prospect has already bound with the agency that picked up first.

What Kai does

Kai answers every call instantly, captures the policy type, current carrier, and contact, and books a producer callback while your team stays on the renewal in front of them

Active Claims Hit the Wrong Line

What breaks

A crash or a flood call lands on your main line, and an unlicensed front desk should never be taking loss details or playing first notice of loss for the carrier.

What Kai does

Kai recognizes an active claim, stops the intake, and hard-transfers the caller straight to the carrier’s claims line — it never takes loss details it shouldn’t

Service Requests Sit in Voicemail

What breaks

A certificate-of-insurance request with a same-day deadline lands in voicemail while a closing or a job start waits on it, and renewals lapse because no one reminded the client in time.

What Kai does

Kai captures COI requests with their deadline, flags same-day ones as urgent, and chases renewals and lapse notices so coverage does not quietly drop

FAQs

Common questions

01What does Kai capture on a new quote call?

Kai gets the policy type — auto, home, or commercial — the prospect name and callback number, their current carrier, and how they heard about the agency. It books a producer callback or quote review on the right calendar and writes the lead to your record before the call ends. Your producer gets a ready-to-quote prospect instead of a half-finished voicemail while they were heads-down on a renewal.

02Does Kai handle active claims?

No — and that is by design. A crash, a flood, a break-in: Kai recognizes an active claim, stops the intake, and hard-transfers the caller straight to the carrier’s claims line. It never takes loss details it shouldn’t. The claim goes where it belongs, on the record it belongs on, without your line becoming an unlicensed first notice of loss.

03Can Kai take certificate-of-insurance requests?

Yes. Kai captures who the COI is going to and exactly when it is needed, and flags same-day deadlines as urgent so a service request does not sit in voicemail while a closing or a job start waits on it. Your service team picks up a complete request instead of playing phone tag for the holder details.

04Which licensed conversations stay with my team?

Coverage advice, billing and autopay disputes, and rate-increase or non-renewal complaints stay human. Kai acknowledges the caller without defending the carrier, captures the issue, and books the producer callback — but it never gives coverage opinions or walks through underwriting. Licensed-agent work stays with licensed agents.

05How much does a missed new-quote call cost my agency?

A new auto or home policy is worth roughly $300–$600 in first-year commission and far more over its lifetime, and quote shoppers bind with whoever calls back first. With producers buried in renewals and service, the new-business calls are the easiest to miss. Kai answers all of them for a flat monthly price — a couple of bound policies cover the year.

06Which agency systems does Kai work with?

Kai passes leads and requests into Applied Epic, EZLynx, HawkSoft, AgencyZoom, GoHighLevel, Google Calendar, and Zapier (5,000+ apps), and supports custom integrations — typically built within 48 hours. Each new-business lead includes policy type, current carrier, contact, and source so a producer can quote without re-keying anything.
