Insurance bundled into agentic purchase journeys
Agents booking trips, buying vehicles or equipment, or procuring business services may surface protection as an embedded action.
Executive question

What to measure
- Attach rate in permitted agent channels
- Incremental premium vs cannibalized policy sales
- Partner economics and compliance errors
