Insurance quote-abandonment recovery
Your prospect got a price they liked, then froze at the medical question — reach them before the quote goes cold.
What it does
Someone runs an auto, home, or life quote, sees the premium, and stalls before binding — unsure whether the cover is enough, thrown by an underwriting or health question, or wanting to think about the price. Quotes expire and rate locks lapse, so the marketing spend that produced the quote is written off unless someone re-engages fast. The agent reaches out on the channel the prospect chose, answers the coverage, rating, or medical question that stalled them, and resumes the quote from the exact step so it becomes a bound policy instead of a dead one.
How it works
- 1Trigger. the quoting platform flags a started-but-unbound quote; a timed window opens so outreach lands while the rate is still valid.
- 2Decision. the agent reads which step the prospect left at and the likely blocker — a coverage-comprehension gap, an underwriting/medical disclosure, or premium hesitation — then checks consent, quiet hours, and the regulated-communication rules for the line of business. A judge gates the message before it sends.
- 3Action. outreach on the preferred channel — SMS, email, chat, or an outbound voice call for a high-value life quote — with a link back to the saved quote at the exact step. When the prospect replies, the agent explains the cover or the rating factor in plain language and walks them to bind.
- 4Follow-through. non-response gets one scheduled follow-up; if the prospect binds on their own or the quote expires, pending outreach is cancelled rather than sent stale. Bound-rate lift is measured against a holdout so the effect is provable, and the agent never gives advice beyond the carrier's approved coverage explanations — anything resembling a recommendation or a complex underwriting decision routes to a licensed agent.

Metrics it moves
