AI receptionist for insurance brokers
The short answer
Last updated
How it works for insurance brokers
After-hours claims first, quotes second.
Someone who has just had a fire, flood or crash doesn't need a quote form. They need the right emergency number. FirstVoice puts claims first, logs a callback for your team, and handles routine policy calls the rest of the time.
- Gives callers reporting a loss the insurer's emergency claims number, and logs a callback for your team
- Takes new quote requests for house, contents, vehicle and business cover
- Records policy changes, like a new vehicle or address, and requests for a certificate of currency
- Never gives financial advice, and books those questions in with a licensed adviser
- Keeps answering when calls surge after a storm or natural disaster
