Kay.ai constructs an AI workforce specifically designed for insurance operations, automating numerous repetitive tasks across quoting, renewals, and policy servicing. The platform’s core capabilities include processing diverse documents, seamlessly navigating over a hundred carriers and agency management systems (AMS), and integrating robust quality assurance to ensure accuracy and efficiency in complex workflows. It aims to act as a digital teammate for insurance professionals.
Kay.ai was co-founded by Vishal Rohra, who serves as its CEO, and Achyut Joshi, a pivotal co-founder. Their entrepreneurial journey began with the understanding that the insurance industry was burdened by significant operational inefficiencies, particularly manual data entry and routine administrative processes. They conceived an intelligent automation solution, leveraging deep machine learning expertise, to address this pervasive challenge.
The company primarily serves insurance agencies and brokerages seeking to optimize their workflows by delegating administrative burdens. Kay.ai’s long-term vision is to significantly reduce the time spent on manual tasks, striving to give back billions of hours to insurance professionals. The company seeks to fundamentally reshape how daily work is conducted within the insurance sector through intelligent automation.

Kay.ai is an AI platform that deploys "AI co-workers" to automate repetitive back-office tasks in insurance operations, such as data entry, client intake, carrier form submissions, policy comparisons, renewals, and servicing.[1][2][3][6] It serves insurance brokers, agencies, independent agents, and associations by integrating directly into email, agency management systems (AMS), and browsers, reducing manual work by up to 90% and saving hours per quote without needing APIs or major changes.[1][2][3][5] This solves operational bottlenecks amid labor shortages, enabling teams to focus on selling, advising clients, and scaling efficiently.[2][3]
Kay.ai was founded by immigrant entrepreneurs Vishal Rohra and Achyut Joshi, machine learning engineers with experience at Microsoft (Azure, Xbox, MS Office), Twitter, Amazon, and Relyance AI.[3] After joining the selective South Park Commons Fellowship, they explored AI applications and identified massive inefficiencies in insurance back-office operations, like manual data entry across spreadsheets, forms, and portals.[3][7] Pivotal early traction came from automating quoting tasks—users forward emails or PDFs, and Kay extracts data, navigates portals, and generates quotes—leading to a $3M funding round in March 2025 from Wing VC, South Park Commons, and 101 Weston Labs.[3]
Kay.ai rides the AI agent wave transforming enterprise automation, targeting insurance's stubborn manual workflows amid acute labor shortages and scaling pressures.[3] Timing is ideal as generative AI advances reasoning for unstructured tasks like portal navigation, outpacing rigid RPA; market forces like rising premiums and broker consolidation favor tools reclaiming "billions of hours" from admin drudgery.[3][6][7] It influences the ecosystem by enabling agencies to thrive without hiring, deepening client relationships, and setting a model for domain-specific AI co-workers in regulated industries.[2][3]
Kay.ai is poised to expand beyond quoting into full servicing and renewals, potentially capturing more of insurance's $1T+ back-office market as AI reasoning improves.[3][6] Trends like multi-agent systems and deeper workflow embeddings will amplify its edge, while partnerships with AMS providers and associations could accelerate adoption.[2][5] Its influence may evolve from niche efficiency booster to ecosystem standard, redefining insurance ops—much like how it already turns data entry drudgery into high-value advisory time.[3][7]
Kay.ai has raised $3.0M across 1 funding round. Most recently, it raised $3.0M Seed in March 2025.
