In an era where artificial intelligence is reshaping the way we work, at Wing we’ve been excited about the rise of the agentic workforce — AI coworkers designed to streamline and automate repetitive and mundane work across industries. The insurance sector is a prime example of where this transformation is sorely needed. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the insurance industry is projected to face a shortage of nearly 400,000 workers by 2026.
Many brokers and agencies continue to grapple with outdated manual processes that drain valuable time and resources. Kay AI is changing that narrative by eliminating tedious work. Whether it’s handling submissions, renewals, or servicing tasks, Kay’s AI co-worker integrates seamlessly into existing workflows, extracting key details from emails or PDFs, entering data across carrier portals, and generating accurate quotes—all without the friction of lengthy onboarding or complex integrations.
We’re thrilled to announce leading Kay AI’s inception financing with friends from South Park Commons, 101 Weston Labs and several angels. Founders Vishal Rohra and Achyut Joshi bring a rare blend of deep machine learning expertise across companies such as Microsoft, Twitter, Amazon, and Relyance and an unwavering focus on user-centric design. They can be found at pretty much any and every conference where brokers and agencies gather, understanding their pain points and needs deeply, which positions them perfectly to address the hurdles the industry faces.
At Wing, we believe that the transformative power of AI can liberate professionals from mundane tasks, allowing them to focus on strategic, high-value work. Kay AI embodies this vision, setting a new standard for operational efficiency in insurance (and beyond!). We’re proud to support their journey toward a more streamlined and innovative future.
