InsurTech leader embeds AI across the insurance lifecycle to help agencies, MGAs and carriers accelerate workflows, improve decisions and eliminate distribution drag
DENVER, April 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today at Accelerate 2026, Vertafore® introduced its Velocity™ AI Platform and six AI agents that deliver speed and improve precision in everyday insurance workflows. Capitalizing on its long-standing leadership with AI, these latest innovations from Vertafore help agencies, MGAs and carriers bypass the time-consuming drag of manual effort and improve the decisions that drive their growth and relationships.
The Vertafore Velocity AI Platform
Purpose-built for insurance, Velocity AI brings artificial intelligence directly into the core systems agencies, MGAs and carriers already use.
The platform serves as the innovation foundation behind Vertafore’s growing portfolio of AI agents, powering secure and scalable AI development across the company’s core product families: AgencyOne®, MGA solutions and Sircon®. Velocity AI enables Vertafore to design, build and deliver new AI capabilities faster, accelerating the pace of innovation.
Vertafore is taking the insurance industry from friction to flow, eliminating distribution drag across the value chain to help agencies, MGAs and carriers achieve Distribution Velocity—speed with intentional outcomes—within and across insurance workflows. Velocity AI is key to the company’s focus, underpinning AI innovation that helps the industry adapt faster and grow smarter.
“Insurance is a relationship-driven business, but too much of the work behind it is still manual and fragmented, slowing down growth and service,” said Amy Zupon, CEO at Vertafore. “What we’re delivering with Velocity AI is a practical way to bring AI into the workflows that drive this industry forward, so our customers can move faster, make better decisions and focus on relationships and the activities that matter most.”
AI agents designed for insurance workflows
Built on the Velocity AI Platform, Vertafore announced its new portfolio of Velocity AI agents embedded within the solutions agencies, MGAs and carriers already trust, helping to reduce manual work, improve accuracy and move processes forward more efficiently. This initial set of six Velocity AI agents marks the beginning of a continuous stream of agent innovation, with additional capabilities planned this year to address workflows across the distribution lifecycle.
