The future of AI in the customer journey

07/04/2025

The insurance industry is on the cusp of a transformative revolution, driven by advancements in artificial intelligence (AI). At the heart of this change are generative AI and agentic commerce, two concepts set to redefine customer journeys and the buying process.

Understanding generative AI and agentic commerce in insurance

Generative AI refers to AI systems capable of creating new content, solutions, or data patterns based on existing information. In the insurance sector, this means developing personalised policies, generating risk assessments, and crafting tailored customer communications, all through AI-driven insights. Agentic commerce involves autonomous AI agents that manage and execute transactions on behalf of users. In insurance, these AI agents can handle tasks ranging from policy recommendations to claims processing, effectively acting as digital intermediaries between insurers and clients.

Tech leaders pioneering AI-driven systems

Several technology leaders are at the forefront of integrating AI into insurance:

IBM: Exploring generative AI to enhance customer experiences and align with evolving expectations.

Salesforce: Emphasising the need for trust, technology, and organisational readiness in scaling agentic AI.

Zurich Insurance: Utilising AI to automate claims review, significantly reducing processing time.

Impact of AI agents on the insurance customer journey

AI agents are set to revolutionise each stage of the customer journey:

  1. Awareness: AI-driven analytics can identify potential customers and deliver targeted marketing messages, increasing engagement.
  2. Consideration: Personalised policy options generated by AI help customers make informed decisions tailored to their needs.
  3. Purchase: AI agents streamline the buying process by guiding customers through applications, verifying information, and finalising transactions efficiently.
  4. Service: Post-purchase, AI agents provide proactive support, such as notifying customers of policy updates or assisting with claims, enhancing satisfaction and loyalty.

Transforming business-customer relationships

The integration of AI agents fosters deeper relationships between insurers and customers:

Personalisation: Tailored interactions make customers feel valued, strengthening trust and loyalty.

Efficiency: Automating routine tasks allows human agents to focus on complex issues, improving overall service quality.

Accessibility: AI agents provide 24/7 assistance, ensuring customers receive support whenever needed.

Predictions for AI-driven insurance distribution

Looking ahead, AI is expected to:

Automate underwriting and claims: Reducing processing times and operational costs.

Enhance fraud detection: Utilising predictive analytics to identify and prevent fraudulent activities.

Expand distribution channels: AI agents will enable insurers to reach customers through various digital platforms, meeting them where they are.

Briisk’s role in facilitating AI transformation

Briisk is poised to aid this transformation through its digital insurance technology platform. By offering API integration and cloud-based solutions, Briisk enables insurers to seamlessly incorporate AI capabilities into their operations, enhancing distribution and customer engagement.
