Step-by-Step Guide

Segment Policies by Renewal Window and Value

Identify policies expiring in the next 30, 60, and 90 days. Segment by policy type (motor, health, life, fire) and premium value to prioritize outreach effort and assign the right channel mix.

Configure IRDAI Compliance Rules

Set mandatory disclosure language, IRDAI registration number inclusion, call timing windows, recording requirements, and do-not-disturb checks before activating any outreach sequence.

Design the Renewal Outreach Sequence

60 days out: first WhatsApp touch with renewal notice. 30 days: voice call with benefits reminder. 14 days: voice + email with payment link. 7 days: final voice attempt. 1 day: lapse warning SMS. Design each touch with the right tone for each window.

Build the Objection Handling Tree

Map the top 10 renewal objections - price concerns, claim experience issues, change of insurer, financial hardship - and script the AI's handling for each. Include escalation triggers for objections that require a human underwriter.

Automate Renewal Document Collection

For policies requiring updated KYC or no-claims declarations, the AI requests documents via WhatsApp, validates uploads, and pushes them to your policy management system - no branch visit required.

Track and Optimize by Policy Cohort

Monitor renewal rate, payment completion rate, and escalation rate by policy type and premium band. A/B test outreach timing and messaging to continuously improve renewal performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the AI handle both inbound renewal queries and outbound renewal outreach?

Yes. The same AI Employee can be configured for both outbound renewal calls and inbound queries from policyholders calling to renew or ask questions.

How does the AI handle a policyholder who wants to switch insurer?

The AI captures the reason for switching, flags the account as 'at risk' in your CRM, and escalates to a retention specialist - providing full context from the conversation.

Is it possible to process payments during the renewal call?

The AI can send a payment link via WhatsApp or SMS during the call, which the customer can complete in real time. Direct payment capture via voice requires PCI-DSS configuration.

Which insurance management systems does UnleashX integrate with?

We integrate with Duck Creek, Majesco, Sapiens, and custom policy management systems via API. Integration is completed as part of the 7-day deployment.
