Who it’s for · Insurance agents

Claims, certificates, cancellations: your agency picks up.

A client is at the dealership with a new car and can’t drive it off the lot without proof of insurance. You’re on another line, so she calls the carrier’s 800 number instead. Phoneman answers, takes the details you need, and writes up every call.

Phoneman is not an emergency service. It marks urgent calls so you see them first.

Boundaries

It answers. You decide.

What it does
  • Take the first report of an accident, theft or water loss, and mark it by what the caller says
  • Note who needs a certificate and by when, so your team can issue it
  • Keep carrier and adjuster calls apart from client calls
  • Offer to connect a caller to you, if they agree, when you have call transfers turned on
What it won’t do
  • Say that coverage is bound, added, changed or in force
  • Tell a caller whether a loss is covered or whether to file a claim
  • Quote a premium or a deductible
  • Read out an ID card or certificate, or take card or license numbers
It learns your answers · example
  1. A caller asks: “Do you insure food trucks?”
  2. You approve: “Yes, through our commercial carriers. Have the truck’s year and your menu ready when we call back.”
  3. Next time: The next food truck owner hears that you write it and what to have ready.

Transfers, with consent. A client calls from a traffic stop needing proof of insurance right now. With call transfers on, Phoneman asks first, then rings your service desk; outside your transfer hours it takes a message marked Urgent.

A greeting to start from

Make it yours.

Callers first hear your assistant say it’s the AI assistant; that line can’t be changed. This is what it says next. Replace {business} with your business name.

Thanks for calling {business}. Are you calling about a claim, a change to your policy, or a new quote?

FAQ

Will it tell a client their new car is covered?

No. It never says coverage is bound, added or in force. It takes the car details so your team can make the change and confirm it.

Can it send certificates of insurance?

No. It takes who needs the certificate and by when, and marks one needed today or tomorrow as Important.

What happens when someone calls right after an accident?

It notes what happened and when, and marks the call Urgent if someone is hurt or the property is still at risk. It never says whether the loss is covered.

Does it repeat policy numbers in the notes?

No. If a caller reads out a policy, card or Social Security number, it stays out of the call summary.

Never miss another call.

Set it up in about 3 minutes, call it yourself, and forward your calls only when you’re happy.
