## What does an AI receptionist do for an insurance agency?

An AI receptionist for an insurance agency answers the office line whenever your producers and customer service reps cannot, and sorts each caller into a quote, a policy question, or a claim. Nuteq takes quote requests by collecting the details your agency asks for, such as vehicles and drivers or the home’s address and age, then books a quote consultation with a licensed agent. For a first notice of loss it records the policy number, the date and place, what happened, who was involved, and a callback number, and it can read out the carrier claims numbers you give it. Anyone reporting danger or injury is told to contact emergency services first. It never quotes a premium, binds or changes coverage, or says whether a loss is covered. Each call is saved with a recording, transcript, and summary for the agent who picks it up.

- **Answers:** Phone, text messages, WhatsApp, and website chat
- **Quote requests:** Details collected for a licensed agent
- **Claims:** First notice of loss taken at any hour
- **Books:** Quote consultations and claims intake calls
- **Coverage advice:** Never; it says an agent will confirm
- **Your number:** Keep it and forward calls, or get a local one

### What it will not do

- It does not quote premiums, bind coverage, or make policy changes.
- It does not say whether a loss is covered or estimate what a claim will pay.
- It does not file claims with carriers. It records the details for your agency to report.
- It does not connect to Applied Epic, EZLynx, or HawkSoft today. Call records and leads are saved in Nuteq.

## Quote, service, and claim calls an agency takes

Personal lines agencies hear from shoppers, existing clients, and people who just had a loss, often in the same hour. Each needs a different set of questions.

### A new driver wants to price out car insurance

*auto quote*

Collects the vehicle, drivers, and current carrier, then books a quote consultation with a licensed agent.

Outcome: Quote consultation booked

### A client reports a fender bender on Saturday night

*after hours*

Takes the policy number, time, place, and other driver’s details, and gives the carrier claims line you listed.
