How One of Europe's Largest Insurers Launch AI Agents
Blog post from ElevenLabs
Admiral has deployed AI agents for customer conversations across its insurance and lending operations in the UK, Italy, France, and Spain, beginning with a controlled settlement-quote use case that combined limited conversation paths with real telephony and backend complexity. The company involved legal and compliance teams from the outset, built stricter validation and governance processes for production use, and layered internal standards above regulatory requirements, including human escalation for vulnerable or distressed customers. Its design uses AI for tasks such as understanding intent while reserving deterministic workflows for authentication, mandatory disclosures, and other actions requiring auditable consistency. Admiral and ElevenLabs developed agents through collaborative workshops involving business, engineering, and telephony teams, enabling early prototypes and closer process ownership. Every update is tested through hundreds or thousands of simulated conversations before staged deployment from 1 percent to full traffic, reducing release cycles from weeks to hours. Native-language prompts improved performance across markets, while results have included shorter handling times and incremental gains in customer satisfaction and resolution rates; Admiral ultimately aims to extend the AI layer to assist human agents with live guidance, transcripts, and training.
