New AI Assistant from Kizen Unlocks Significant Timesavings, Enabling Agents to Deliver Better Member Experiences While Working Less and Earning More NEW YORK-(BUSINESS WIRE)-Kizen, a leading AI platform for harmonizing how people and AI work together, today announced the Ultimate AI Assistant For Insurance Agents. The new agentic AI solution is purpose-built and designed to streamline agent workflows by reducing manual and administrative friction and delivering actionable recommendations, enabling insurance agents to focus on client relationships and growth opportunities. "With Kizen's Ultimate AI Assistant For Insurance Agents, our goal is to help our clients reclaim up to two full days per week by reducing manual processes," said John Winner, CEO and Co-founder, Kizen.

Kizen's Ultimate AI Assistant For Insurance Agents can reduce this process to three minutes, freeing up significant time for insurance agents to focus on serving customer needs instead of manual administrative work that interferes with both service and growth opportunities. "Agentic AI can increase the velocity of growth.

The Ultimate AI Assistant empowers insurance agents with several key functions in their workflows: * Transcribing and summarizing complex terms from a customer call * Identifying and recommending follow-up actions based on the customer conversation * Analyzing customer medications, pharmacies, providers, and more * Recommending insurance products to help members receive comprehensive coverage for all their needs * Updating the insurance agent's personal CRM in real time * Drafting, scheduling, and sending a personalized follow-up note to the customer Crucial for the regulated insurance sector, the Ultimate AI Assistant For Insurance Agents is accessible through Kizen's proven AI-native platform and is designed with enterprise-grade security and privacy, including the necessary guardrails built to ensure compliance with relevant regulations.
