Insurance, inside every AI chat.

Your customers' next insurance question won't happen in your search box - it'll happen in ChatGPT. We build the ChatGPT Apps, and Claude's equivalent, that let direct-to-consumer insurers and MGAs quote, sell and service customers inside the conversation - with the disclosure, audit trail and complaints handling a regulator expects.

An insurance quote returned inside an AI chat conversation, with price, product summary and disclosure block.
FAQ for AI search

What is an MCP app for insurance?

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) app exposes an insurer or MGA's products - quoting and claim service - as a callable app inside ChatGPT, Claude and other AI assistants. OpenAI ships these as ChatGPT Apps (October 2025); Anthropic ships the equivalent as MCP Apps in Claude.ai (January 2026). Both run on the same protocol - built jointly by the two companies as an open spec. The same surface can also serve insurer-to-broker workflows: replacing email as the channel through which a broker submits a quote request and an underwriter responds, without connecting to a rating engine.

01 / The shift

Customers are moving from the search bar to chat.

  • For a growing share of customers, the first place they ask "how much would insurance cost for…" is ChatGPT or Claude, not Google.
  • OpenAI shipped ChatGPT Apps at DevDay in October 2025. Anthropic's equivalent - MCP Apps on Claude.ai - shipped in January 2026. Both surfaces run on the same Model Context Protocol: build once, ship to both.
  • In February 2026, Insurify launched the first insurance comparison app inside ChatGPT and Tuio launched the first direct-to-consumer insurance quoting app. Major global broker stocks - Willis Towers Watson, Aon, Arthur J. Gallagher - dropped 8–11% on the news. In March, Aviva launched its own ChatGPT app. The channel is not theoretical.
  • The first NZ and AU insurers and MGAs to ship will earn distribution inside the chat before the channel is contested locally.
  • Done well, this is not a chatbot bolted onto your website. It is your product - callable as an app - with the same disclosures and audit obligations as any other channel.
02 / Use cases

Two distinct shapes.

Primary: direct-to-consumer in the chat - real quotes and real claim service. Secondary: a broker submission channel that replaces email between brokers and underwriters.

Primary · Direct-to-consumer

Customers describe what they need in ChatGPT or Claude. Your product responds in the same conversation - bound by the same disclosure and audit obligations as your direct web channel.

APP-01

Quote

Customer describes their need in ChatGPT or Claude. Your app returns a real quote with the disclosures and product summary your regulator requires, and a path to bind.

APP-02

Claim status

Identity-verified policyholder asks for a claim update. Your app returns sanitised status, next steps and expected timeframes.

Secondary · Insurer ↔ broker

Submissions in the chat, not in email.

A different shape - and a different audience. Brokers raise submission requests via the same conversational surface to your underwriting team: structured fact-find capture, clarification back-and-forth and the resulting indication or quote, all in one thread instead of a forty-message email chain.

Not connected to your rating engine. Pricing stays with your underwriters. The chat replaces email as the channel for the request, the back-and-forth and the outcome - captured, structured and audit-ready.

04 / Why Airclerk

Insurance depth. MCP fluency.

i.

Insurance from the inside.

Our strongest practice is brokers, and we've done significant work with insurers and MGAs. We know what a quote and a claim conversation actually has to do.

ii.

Apps and MCP from the inside.

ChatGPT Apps (October 2025) and Claude MCP Apps (January 2026) both run on the same MCP protocol. We build, ship and operate on that surface as a regular part of our practice - not as an experiment.

iii.

Governance built in, not bolted on.

Disclosure, audit trail, identity and complaints belong in the MCP server itself. Done at launch, not retrofitted.

iv.

NZ and AU regulatory fluency.

FSLAA, FAP, CoFI and the FMA's conduct expectations shape how an insurance app should behave inside an AI chat. We design for that on day one.
