Introducing Flow Specialty's Platformless AI for Insurance Brokers

Flow Specialty is redefining the future of wholesale insurance with a groundbreaking innovation: Flow Specialty Platformless AI. As the industry continues to struggle with inconsistent service models and overly complex digital platforms, this new approach brings clarity, efficiency, and exceptional value to retail insurance brokers—without requiring them to log into a single portal.

What is Platformless AI?

Platformless AI is not just another tech term—it’s a radical shift in how AI supports the insurance brokerage process. Instead of asking retail brokers to adapt to portals or submit data into platforms, Flow’s technology operates behind the scenes to empower internal brokers and streamline the entire submission-to-policy issuance lifecycle.

This approach ensures that retail agents don’t have to change how they work. They simply email or call, and Flow’s brokers—backed by powerful AI insurance tools—take care of the rest.

How Flow's Platformless AI Works

Flow’s Platformless AI is a proprietary system of AI agents trained for specialized insurance functions. These agents handle a wide range of tasks, including:

• Extracting and structuring submission data
• Matching risks to carrier appetites
• Performing insurance quoting AI tasks like building side-by-side quote comparisons
• Analyzing policy forms for coverage strengths and gaps
• Conducting thorough quality assurance on binders and issued policies

This allows Flow brokers to focus on meaningful conversations and strategic placement, not administrative tasks. The result is a streamlined and scalable process that prioritizes quality over premium size.

Benefits for Retail Insurance Brokers

Retail brokers partnering with Flow gain a significant competitive edge. Here’s what Flow Specialty AI delivers:

• No logins, platforms, or portals—just seamless service via email or phone
• Faster quote turnarounds and broader market access
• In-depth coverage analysis on every deal, regardless of premium
• Enterprise-grade service for accounts of any size
• Relief from the burden of learning platform tools or quoting software

This model makes AI in insurance brokerage more useful and accessible than ever before, especially for time-strapped retail producers.

Integrating Platformless AI into Your Workflow

There’s no software to install, no training needed, and no portal to navigate. Retail brokers continue operating as they always have—via phone or email—while Flow’s wholesale insurance AI handles the complexity on the back end.

Because Flow is not confined to API-only quoting, it flexibly works with dozens of markets, adapting to whatever format each carrier prefers—portal, API, or email.

Comparing Platformless AI to Traditional Solutions

Most wholesale brokerages fall into one of two categories:

• Large, traditional players focused on enterprise accounts with limited bandwidth for smaller clients
• Tech-first startups that force retail agents to use quoting platforms or digital portals

Flow’s Platformless AI is fundamentally different. Instead of building tech for clients to use, Flow builds AI insurance tools for its brokers—enhancing human service, not replacing it.

This allows for consistent, white-glove treatment across all submissions—no matter the account size.

The Future of AI in Wholesale Brokerage

Flow is ushering in what it calls Wholesale 3.0—a future where smart automation supports, rather than replaces, expert human brokers.

With a 260% growth rate in 2024, Flow’s model proves that scalable, high-touch service isn’t just possible—it’s profitable. As the industry continues to evolve, Flow Specialty technology is setting the benchmark for how AI in insurance brokerage should work: behind the scenes, empowering experts, and delivering meaningful value.

Getting Started with Flow's AI

Flow’s model is intentionally frictionless. Retail brokers can:

• Send submissions directly via email
• Expect a response from a real broker backed by Flow Specialty AI
• Receive detailed quote comparisons and coverage insights

There’s no account setup, no user training, and no additional tech investment required. Flow’s mission is to make wholesale brokerage more responsive, more transparent, and more aligned with retail agents’ needs.
