AI Agents to Automate MGAs in 2025

Top Platforms – and Why FacioMGA Is in a Category of Its Own

MGAs and Lloyd's coverholders are under intense pressure:

The Pressure on Modern MGAs

  • Carriers want cleaner data, better governance, and stronger profitability.
  • Brokers and clients expect instant responses.
  • Regulators and rating agencies demand proof of control and discipline.

The only way to keep up at scale is to move from "people + systems" to "people + systems + AI agents"—specialized digital workers that:

  • Read submissions
  • Pre-underwrite risks
  • Enforce delegated authority rules
  • Clean and structure data
  • Generate bordereaux and reports
  • Monitor aggregates and portfolio health

In the last 18–24 months, the market has exploded with AI solutions for underwriting, pricing, and submission automation.

But there's one crucial distinction:

Most AI tools sit on top of an existing core system.

FacioMGA is both the core delegated authority system and the AI agent orchestration layer in one platform.

This article walks through the top AI agent platforms for MGAs in 2025, then explains why FacioMGA is structurally different.

What Do We Mean by "AI Agents" for MGAs?

When we say AI agents in an MGA context, we're talking about:

  • Software entities that can take a task,
  • Read and understand relevant documents and data,
  • Follow rules and workflows,
  • And act autonomously (with human oversight) to move work forward.

Examples:

  • Turning unstructured email + PDF submissions into structured, triaged risks
  • Checking a quote against delegated authority limits and triggering referrals
  • Generating risk, premium, and claims bordereaux
  • Monitoring aggregates and alerting when nearing capacity
  • Proposing renewal strategies for specific segments

Think of them as digital operations staff that sit inside or alongside your PAS.

The Top AI Agent Platforms for MGAs (2025)

2. Cytora – Agentic AI for Risk Digitization & Intake

What it does

Cytora is a risk digitization platform that transforms messy, unstructured submissions from brokers into structured, decision-ready risks. It uses generative and "agentic" AI to automate intake and route risks appropriately.

Key capabilities:

  • Reads emails, attachments, schedules, and statements of values.
  • Extracts key fields and normalizes them into consistent schemas.
  • Applies rules to prioritise and triage submissions.
  • Integrates with existing PAS / workbench tools.

AI agent angle

  • Cytora's latest release explicitly references agentic AI, orchestrating multiple "digitization agents" to handle complex transactions with explainability.

Where it fits for MGAs

  • Fantastic for MGAs swimming in unstructured submissions and spreadsheets.
  • Sits in front of your PAS; it doesn't replace your core system.

3. hyperexponential / hx Renew – Pricing & Underwriting Agents

What it does

hyperexponential's hx Renew is a pricing decision platform widely adopted by complex commercial (re)insurers and MGAs.

Key capabilities:

  • Sophisticated rating and pricing tools for complex risks.
  • Ability to incorporate proprietary datasets and advanced models.
  • Deployed as an underwriter workbench for pricing decisions.

AI agent angle

  • Acts like an AI-augmented pricing assistant: it helps underwriters explore scenarios, compare rates, and use more data without drowning in spreadsheets.
  • It integrates with PAS and intake tools, but is focused specifically on pricing & decision intelligence, not full policy administration.

Where it fits for MGAs

  • Ideal for MGAs focused on complex commercial lines, portfolio optimization, and advanced rating.
  • Works best as a pricing brain connected to a PAS—again, not as the PAS itself.

4. IntellectAI – Intelligent Underwriting Agents for MGAs

What it does

IntellectAI offers intelligent underwriting solutions for MGAs, emphasizing "expert agents" that help triage opportunities, manage submissions, and improve underwriting efficiency.

Key capabilities:

  • AI-powered opportunity analysis
  • Submission ingestion and risk assessment
  • Underwriting workflow support and triage

AI agent angle

  • Markets "pre-built solutions powered by expert agents" for MGA operations. These agents help underwriters identify attractive opportunities and scale capacity more safely.

Where it fits for MGAs

  • Great for improving front-end underwriting and workflow efficiency.
  • Typically deployed alongside existing PAS / policy admin tools.

5. Outmarket AI – AI Agents for Appetite, Placement & Portfolio

What it does

Outmarket is an AI platform focused on data-driven underwriting & growth for MGAs, with a strong emphasis on appetite, placement, and portfolio management.

Key capabilities:

  • Appetite search and intelligent market placement
  • Risk exposure monitoring
  • Claims trend detection and early warning signals

AI agent angle

  • Uses AI-driven insights and analytics to effectively act as a portfolio and placement agent, helping MGAs attract aligned submissions and manage risk exposure more intelligently.

Where it fits for MGAs

  • Particularly useful for MGAs trying to optimise which business they see and place, not just how they process it internally.

6. Earnix – AI for Pricing & Underwriting Automation

What it does

Earnix is known for real-time pricing and personalization, and has published dedicated guidance on using AI and automation to improve MGA underwriting and resilience.

Key capabilities:

  • AI-driven pricing models
  • Real-time rating and personalization
  • Portfolio analytics and scenario modelling

AI agent angle

  • Think of Earnix as a pricing/underwriting strategy agent: it helps MGAs continuously refine pricing and product strategies using AI.

Where it fits for MGAs

  • Strong for MGAs with high-volume, data-rich portfolios, particularly in personal lines or SME.

7. AllDigital / Athula – AI Underwriting Automation Tool

What it does

AllDigital, in partnership with Athula, launched an AI solution designed to help MGAs and carriers automate underwriting and streamline decision-making.

Key capabilities:

  • AI underwriting workflows
  • Data integration and decision support
  • Focus on scalable underwriting automation

AI agent angle

  • Acts as a rule- and data-driven underwriting agent to reduce manual review and speed up decisions.

Where it fits for MGAs

  • Good example of how AI underwriting tools can slot into existing stacks; still relies on a separate PAS for core policy admin.

8. Selectsys / Similar Submission Automation Platforms

What they do

Vendors like Selectsys focus on AI-powered submission automation for MGAs, wholesalers, and carriers. Their tools read incoming submissions, extract structured data, and sometimes even generate instant quotes.

Key capabilities:

  • Reading unstructured submissions
  • Extracting and validating data
  • Auto-populating quote systems

AI agent angle

  • Operate as submission agents: AI workers that turn messy inbound flow into clean, ready-to-underwrite records.

Where they fit for MGAs

  • Extremely helpful for MGAs drowning in inboxes and PDFs, but again, they sit in front of the PAS.

So What's Different About FacioMGA?

Looking across this list, a pattern emerges:

  • Cytora, Selectsys, AllDigital – agentic AI for submission & risk intake
  • hyperexponential (hx Renew), Earnix – AI for pricing & underwriting decisions
  • IntellectAI, Outmarket – AI for underwriting workflows, appetite, and portfolio

All of them are valuable. All can materially improve an MGA's performance.

But they share a common assumption:

There is already a core policy administration system / PAS underneath them, and the AI agents are satellite tools around it.

FacioMGA breaks that pattern.

FacioMGA = PAS + AI Agent Layer in One Platform

FacioMGA is:

  1. A delegated authority PAS:
    • Binders, sections, limits, aggregates, DA rules
    • Multi-carrier programs
    • Bordereaux generation
    • Policy lifecycle (quote, bind, MTA, renewal, cancel)
  2. A low-code blueprint engine:
    • Products, workflows, and rating defined as structured models.
  3. An AI agent platform:
    • Agents can read and modify those models, triage submissions, check compliance, generate bordereaux, and monitor portfolios—from inside the core.

That means:

  • No "broken telephone" between AI and core system.
  • No fragile integrations just to let agents see policy, binder, and rating data.
  • No mismatch between what your AI thinks the rules are and what your PAS actually enforces.

Instead, the rules live in one place, and both humans and AI agents operate on the same source of truth.

How to Use This in Your Positioning

You can honestly say:

  • There are many excellent AI tools for MGAs today—intake, pricing, analytics, portfolio optimisation.
  • FacioMGA is currently one of the only platforms that combines a delegated authority PAS and an AI agent layer in a single system-of-record.

So if an MGA wants:

  • AI experiments on the side → any of the tools above can help.
  • A structural shift where AI is woven into underwriting, DA governance, and ops → they need something like FacioMGA.
