AI-native operating layer for insurance

Power your brokerage.
Automate the rest.

Finist is an AI-native operating layer that automates the administrative friction of insurance distribution — quoting, onboarding, and customer support — so brokerages can focus entirely on advising clients.

How it works

Three workflows. One operating system.

InsureBuddy automates the repetitive work that slows brokerages down — so your team focuses on advice, not admin.

01

Multi-provider aggregation

Medical aid, gap cover, pet, travel and life — compare plans across insurers in real time from a single interface.

02

Compliant digital onboarding

Collect client details, validate documents, and complete onboarding compliantly across email, website, and WhatsApp.

03

AI-powered client support

Identify clients, retrieve their exact policy details, and send accurate responses 24/7 — automatically, across any channel.

The difference

Real scenarios. Real time saved.

Three situations every broker recognises — and how InsureBuddy changes them.

Before
Task
With InsureBuddy
2 hrs

Stop what you're doing. Open the CRM. Find the policy. Draft a reply. Double-check. Send. Repeat 15 more times today.

Queries
45 sec

A client messages on WhatsApp. InsureBuddy identifies them, retrieves their cover, and replies — while you're with another client.

2 days

Call the prospect. Gather details. Manually compare 4 insurers. Build a PDF in Word. Email it. Chase. Start over for the next one.

Quotes
3 min

A prospect submits a form. InsureBuddy compares all providers, generates a branded comparison PDF, and sends it. CRM updated.

Next day

Client messages at 9pm. The query sits unread. They call a competitor in the morning. You lose the renewal without knowing why.

After hours
24/7

Client messages at 9pm. InsureBuddy replies in seconds — accurate and on-brand. The renewal is secured. You slept through it.

Built for brokers

Everything your brokerage runs on

An AI agent that plugs into the tools and channels you already use.

Autonomous AI agent

InsureBuddy reads, reasons, and acts — identifying clients and resolving requests without a broker in the loop.

Policy-grounded answers

Every reply is pulled from the client's actual policy document — not a generic, risky guess.

Compliant by design

Document validation and audit trails keep onboarding and advice within regulatory requirements.

Every channel, one brain

WhatsApp, email, website chat, and the client portal all feed the same agent and CRM.

Live broker dashboard

See every automated query, quote, and onboarding in real time — with the hours InsureBuddy gave back.
