• AI applications are planned across sales and renewal calls, partner and RM copilots, customer support, onboarding and operations; efficiency gains are intended to support flat employee costs as revenue grows.

• Long-term targets are to reduce non-payout costs from 5%-6% of premium to 1%-3%, and fixed costs from 6%-8% to 3%-4% of premium.

• Cross-selling and capacity-building may take several quarters; near-term profitability protections include contract maintenance and retained policy servicing as some policies shift to direct business.
