Agentic AI Copilot for Insurance Underwriting with Multi-Tool Integration

Snorkel 2025

Snorkel developed a specialized benchmark dataset for evaluating AI agents in insurance underwriting, leveraging their expert network of Chartered Property and Casualty Underwriters (CPCUs). The benchmark simulates an AI copilot that assists junior underwriters by reasoning over proprietary knowledge, using multiple tools including databases and underwriting guidelines, and engaging in multi-turn conversations. The evaluation revealed significant performance variations across frontier models (single digits to ~80% accuracy), with notable error modes including tool use failures (36% of conversations) and hallucinations from pretrained domain knowledge, particularly from OpenAI models which hallucinated non-existent insurance products 15-45% of the time.
