Empower delegated authority programs with Patra AI
Purpose-built AI for MGA and MGU delegated authority operations.
Addressing the unique challenges of MGAs and MGUs
MGAs and MGUs face specific operational challenges that generic technology fails to address:
- Authority compliance monitoring across multiple programs and carriers
- Detailed underwriting documentation requirements
- Complex program management with diverse coverage forms and endorsements
- Carrier reporting demands that require comprehensive data capture
- Balancing growth objectives with compliance requirements
As program business continues to expand, MGAs and MGUs that rely on manual processes and generic tools will struggle to maintain compliance and manage delegated authority while achieving growth objectives.
The Patra AI platform: Purpose-built for MGA/MGU operations
The Patra AI platform brings together three AI services built for program business. Built on decades of insurance processing experience and trained on millions of insurance documents, the platform delivers accuracy, efficiency, and scalability for delegated authority operations.
Policy Checking AI: Support authority compliance and accuracy
For MGAs and MGUs, insurance policy checking is critical to maintaining carrier relationships and supporting authority compliance. Policy Checking AI transforms this workflow with:
- A 900+ point checklist that supports thorough review
- Automated comparison against delegated authority parameters and guidelines
- Color-coded discrepancy reports for easy review
- Choice of implementation options to match your operational model
The result: insurance policy checking time drops by up to 75%, with better accuracy and stronger authority compliance monitoring.
