The model could work a claim from the first call to the payment. Now it had to sell to carriers — and their adjusters had to trust it enough to use it.

Accountability over autonomy.
Every AI output arrives with its source: the policy page, the call transcript, the photo, the exact line on the estimate. Every decision with money on it carries a person’s name. No bulk approvals.
The one-click demo. Every recommendation gets a reviewer’s look before it pays. That’s slower on stage — and it’s what a carrier’s compliance team signs.
