Have an AI voice agent answer an insurance agency's phone and say up front that it's AI
Laura Meyer, director of MeyerInsure, an insurance brokerage in Ballarat, Victoria (Australia), interviewed by Insurance Business
After a developer cold-emailed her, she trialled a voice agent named 'Jess' that answers calls and tells every caller it is AI. She emailed clients a week before launch, framing it as a front door or concierge, and she watches calls closely and asks callers for feedback.

The problem
She didn't have the resources to hire a receptionist.
What happened
Reported by Insurance Business: she was 'blown away by just how natural the computer sounded.' Reactions were mixed: one client in his nineties called it a terrible experience, others were not negative though some were bemused, and fellow brokers were split. Her stance: 'If it's not working, I'll can it.' No call numbers reported.
