We built the Instant Estimate with two primary purposes:&#x20;

1. Drive more business to your insurance offering
2. Simplify the shopping experience for SMBs.&#x20;

Instant Estimate makes it easier than ever to quickly serve customers tailored quotes, leveraging technology to provide instant access to knowledge that has historically required years of expertise.&#x20;

### Benefits to your platform

* **Reduce Churn/Increase “stickiness”**:  Easily add insurance into your platform, adding another fundamental SMB operational workflow
* **Easy Integration**: as with all Authentic products, you can integrate extremely quickly
* **Simple Insurance Applications**: the simplicity of the product will lead to more usage
* **Access to More Customers**: Many customers who thought they were satisfied with their insurance will use the calculator because of the easy access
* **Trial Insurance in your Platform**: Implementing our calculator can serve as a pilot, measuring appetite for future in-platform insurance features

Instant Estimate adds a level of gamification to insurance, providing SMBs an easy opportunity to get a quote and see if they can save money. Our data indicates this will drive more customers from your base into your insurance program than a simple lead form or landing page. With many insurers offering prices that seem too good to be true, this feature lets customers upload their policy to compare the net difference with ours, easing any concerns.

Instant Estimate rolls up key functions of a traditional insurance agent, a key milestone on our path to revolutionizing commercial insurance for SMBs by combining smart policy AI-powered analysis with the ability to bind instantaneously, ensuring they receive personalized solutions while eliminating the time-consuming processes and complexity of engaging with a third-party agent.&#x20;

### How do SMBs use the calculator?

Simply upload your existing policy documents, and Instant Estimate will extract the data from your existing policy and compare it to our Authentic alternative and other policies on the market. A layer of intelligence that comprehends the nuances of insurance (such as the perils, limits, and exclusions that are the foundation of an insurance policy) combined with our leveraging of OpenAI’s advanced language processing technology, we are able to present customers with a quote we have built exclusively for their business.

Every day, SMBs tell us the same story: their premiums keep increasing, and they don’t truly understand which coverages they do or don’t need. This is why we built this tool, to provide quick access to more affordable policies while also empowering owners with the knowledge that has historically required years of expertise. \


How does it work? To check if you are overpaying for commercial insurance or are underinsured, you can simply upload your existing documents and we will present you with a tailored quote estimate.\


This launch is an exciting milestone on our journey—powered by your support and feedback—to revolutionize the commercial insurance industry, leveraging technology to provide instant access to knowledge that has historically required years of expertise.
