Hi, my auto policy is renewing and the price went way up. Can you give me a quote?
I can get that started for you. A licensed agent will prepare the quote. How many vehicles and drivers would you like covered?
Two cars and two drivers, me and my wife.
Thanks. What are the years, makes and models, and when does your current policy renew?
What can an AI receptionist do for an insurance agency?
Quote intake
Collects the details your agents need for a quote, like vehicles and drivers, property details or business type, so the producer can call back ready to quote.
Policy review and quote call booking
Books annual reviews, new-quote calls and renewal conversations at times your calendar shows as open, notes which agent the client asked for, and sends a confirmation.
Claims first steps
Gives callers the 24/7 claims number for their carrier from your list, takes a message for your claims-help team, and tells anyone with injuries to call emergency services (911 in the US).
Service requests
Takes messages for policy changes, adding a vehicle or driver, certificates of insurance and billing questions, and saves them for your service team.
Line-of-business notes
Notes whether each caller needs personal lines, commercial lines or life and health, so the right person on your team follows up.
After-hours coverage
Answers nights and weekends, when many people shop for insurance, and books a quote call for the next business day.
No quotes or binding
It never quotes premiums, binds coverage or gives coverage advice. Those always go to a licensed agent.

Why insurance agencies lose quotes to missed calls
People shopping for insurance often call several agencies and go with the first one that calls back with a quote. Your producers are on quote calls, your service staff are handling endorsements and certificates, and a new prospect gets voicemail. Existing clients calling after an accident want to know what to do next, and a slow answer hurts retention. A missed call can be a lost new policy or a frustrated client.

How do you set up an AI receptionist for an insurance agency?
- 1
Tell Frontivo.io about your agency: agents, lines of business, carriers and their claims numbers, hours and the details you collect for each quote type — type them in or import a page from your website.
- 2
Set your rules — how to tag personal and commercial lines, when to transfer to an agent, which appointments can be booked — then test every channel in the Channel Tester.
- 3
Forward your agency line (or get a new Frontivo.io number: in seconds in the US and Canada, after a documents check in most other countries) and paste one line of code to add the chat and voice widget to your website.
