What happened

The Change Request Agent and Configuration Agent are planned for fall 2026, with underwriters and administrators keeping final approval, Vertafore says.

Vertafore announced two AI tools for MGAs: a Change Request Agent that summarizes changes in renewal and endorsement applications, and a Configuration Agent for program-administration changes in Surefyre. The company says preliminary tests showed review time cut by up to 70%, errors and missed changes cut by up to 98%, and configuration time cut by up to 65%; sample size not disclosed. General availability is expected fall 2026.

What is verified

The source's own statement, as linked above. Nothing beyond it has been independently checked by us.

What remains unclear

These are vendor-reported preliminary test results, not an independent benchmark or a production figure. Underwriters and administrators retain review and approval, per Vertafore.

What it means for your book

MGAs running Surefyre should watch for the fall 2026 release. Ask Vertafore for the test sample size and methodology before citing the percentages internally.

  • Ask Vertafore for the underlying test sample size and conditions before the fall release.
