Your first AI wins: 5 everyday tasks

When you finish, you can use AI for five agency tasks with strong prompts and a clear check for each.

Start with made-up clients

Practice with fictional clients or labels such as Client A. Do not enter names, addresses, policy numbers, health information, claim details or financial information into a consumer AI tool. Use only tools your agency approves for client data.

A strong prompt names the audience, the reading level, the length and the limits. “Do not promise coverage or prices” is a limit you will use constantly.

Wins one and two: plain-language explanations and follow-ups

Weak prompt: “Explain deductibles.” Strong prompt: “Explain a deductible to a client with no insurance background, under 150 words, with one everyday example. Say the policy wording decides what applies and that I will walk through their own policy.” Check that the explanation matches how your products work. Terms differ between products and countries.

For follow-ups, weak: “Write an email to a client.” Strong: “Draft a friendly follow-up with a thank you, three bullet points of what we covered, what I do next and what the client sends me. Do not promise coverage or prices.” Check every fact, date and promise before sending.

Wins three and four: policy summary sheets and renewal prep

Give the tool policy text with personal details removed and ask for a summary under headings, quoting section numbers and marking unclear items as Confirm with carrier. Check each point against the section it names, especially exclusions and waiting periods. Never read the summary alone to a client as if it were the policy.

For renewals, ask for a checklist of questions about life or business changes in the past year and the documents to request. Check that it fits the product type and your regulator's rules. A good renewal checklist can reduce the surprise on claim day when a change was never reported.

Win five: calm replies to worried clients

Weak: “Reply to this angry client.” Strong: “Draft a calm, empathetic reply to a client worried about a premium increase. Acknowledge the worry, explain in plain words what often drives changes, without numbers, and offer a call. Do not promise a lower price.” Then add one sentence that only you could write, such as a detail about their family or business.

Check tone, accuracy and promises. People can tell when a message is generic. A small personal edit keeps the message yours.
