Vertafore Launches Digital Underwriter Vision with AI Agents to Enhance MGA Efficiency
Vertafore has introduced its vision for the Digital Underwriter, aimed at helping Managing General Agencies (MGAs) increase underwriting capacity and reduce cycle times. The company is deploying new Velocity™ AI agents that streamline workflows by automating manual tasks such as preparing submissions and gathering information. Two key agents are now available: the Velocity Change Request Agent identifies changes in renewal applications to save time, while the Velocity Configuration Agent enables admins to handle complex configurations more efficiently using natural language. These tools aim to reduce errors and improve underwriting speed, supporting MGAs' growth by allowing teams to focus on risk evaluation rather than administrative work. The initiative aligns with Vertafore's broader strategy of achieving Distribution Velocity in the AI era. By reducing friction across workflows, these agents are expected to help MGAs respond faster to submissions and make better decisions—key factors for winning business.
