Workflow Atlas

The work, mapped as it actually runs.

An open atlas of the workflows Regesta encounters most often inside independent commercial agencies. Each entry shows the current-state friction, the hidden judgment, the systems in play, and where AI can reasonably assist without expanding its authority.

WF · 01Account Management

Renewal Preparation

Current-state friction

Renewal packets assembled from AMS exports, prior-year emails, loss runs in shared drives, and account manager memory.

Hidden judgment

Which coverage gaps to raise, which market cycles to anticipate, which client relationships absorb premium changes.

Systems involved

AMS · Carrier portals · Email · Shared drive · Loss run PDFs

What AI may assist

Assemble the packet, summarize prior claims, draft the client narrative, flag missing endorsements.

What stays human

Coverage recommendations, market strategy, client conversation.

Evidence of improvement

Days-to-quote-ready, exception counts, producer touch time per account.

WF · 02New Business

Commercial Submission

Current-state friction

Submission requirements vary by carrier and appetite; producers rebuild the packet three times before it goes out.

Hidden judgment

Which carriers to lead with, how to frame the risk narrative, when to withhold information from the initial cast.

Systems involved

AMS · Carrier portals · Rater · Underwriter email · Application PDFs

What AI may assist

Parse ACORDs, prefill applications, align submissions to carrier appetite, track responses.

What stays human

Market selection, risk framing, underwriter relationship, binding.

Evidence of improvement

Submissions per producer week, quote-to-submission ratio, cycle time from intake to bindable quote.

WF · 03Service

Shared Service Inbox

Current-state friction

Hundreds of messages per day: COIs, endorsements, billing questions, escalations, all triaged by whoever is fastest.

Hidden judgment

Which messages are actually urgent, which touch a licensed decision, which reveal an account at risk.

Systems involved

Shared mailbox · AMS · COI system · Carrier portals

What AI may assist

Classify intent, draft standard responses, generate COIs against policy of record, route to the right desk.

What stays human

Coverage confirmations, escalations, retention conversations.

Evidence of improvement

Time-to-first-touch, share of messages resolved without escalation, escapes into E&O review.

WF · 04Operations

Account-Team Standup

Current-state friction

Weekly meeting that runs on account-manager memory and last-minute AMS spelunking.

Hidden judgment

Which accounts need producer attention this week, which renewals are quietly slipping, which service tickets hint at churn.

Systems involved

AMS · CRM · Notes app · Calendar

What AI may assist

Prep the meeting brief: at-risk renewals, aging service items, pending underwriter responses.

What stays human

Prioritization, producer assignments, client outreach decisions.

Evidence of improvement

Meeting length, follow-through on committed actions, at-risk accounts caught before 60-day mark.

WF · 05Producer

Prospecting Call

Current-state friction

Producers walk into calls with public data, LinkedIn scrolls, and whatever the CRM captured from the last touch.

Hidden judgment

What to say first, which risks to surface, when to move to a submission conversation.

Systems involved

CRM · Data enrichment · LinkedIn · News · Prior submissions

What AI may assist

Assemble a pre-call brief with entity, industry, risk exposures, current carrier signals, prior conversations.

What stays human

The call itself, the relationship, the qualifying decision.

Evidence of improvement

Calls-to-qualified-opportunity, meetings booked per producer, brief-used rate.

WF · 06Client

Renewal Communication

Current-state friction

Renewal letters, premium change explanations, and coverage highlights recomposed by hand for every account.

Hidden judgment

How to explain a 22% increase without eroding trust, which changes to lead with, when to schedule a call instead of send an email.

Systems involved

AMS · Word templates · Email · e-signature

What AI may assist

Draft the letter against the renewal packet, highlight material changes, propose a call cadence.

What stays human

Framing, empathy, the delivery choice.

Evidence of improvement

Renewal retention, response time, complaints tied to renewal communication.
