“Leaders of commercial insurance agencies across the U.S. recognize their success depends on how well their client-facing executives engage with clients and prospects, and their ability to drive efficiencies across their operations,” Indio co-founder and CEO Mike Furlong said in prepared remarks. “Indio gives brokers and agents a platform to collect application and renewal data in a digitalized, efficient manner that improves customer experience and saves keystrokes.”

Indio said its automation platform and related tools helps to move paper-related processes online, and streamline workflows. By doing so, insurance agents and brokers can focus more on boosting client experiences and addressing risk management challenges rather than paperwork, Indo asserts.
