In this solo episode, Michael Jans breaks down the most important AI developments from Q1 2026—and what they mean for independent insurance agencies right now.
This is not theory. This is signal.
A recent report from Bank of America Global Research identified $15 billion in commissions at risk, with AI capable of performing a meaningful portion of work currently handled by 20,000–30,000 agencies.
At the same time:
67% of agencies say they plan to use AI
Only 8% have actually implemented it
Agencies using voice AI are reporting up to 8x ROI in 30 days
The gap is opening.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
Where AI is already replacing agency work (and where it won’t)
Why commoditized policies are the most vulnerable
The real opportunity window for agencies that act now
The three forces reshaping the industry: carriers, regulation, and insurtech funding
Why most agencies are exposed from a governance and E&O standpoint
