boshu Inc. Significantly Updates "boshu assist," its AI Assistance Service for Insurance Agencies

boshu Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Hisashi Tomisaka; hereinafter "the Company") has implemented a major version-up of "boshu assist," its AI assistance service for insurance agencies. This press release reports on the results of continuously expanding functions in response to the on-site needs of adopting agencies, approximately three months after its official release on February 2, 2026.

Looking ahead to the stricter recommended sales rules under the revised Insurance Business Act to be enforced in June 2026, we will continue to develop the platform to support the improvement of insurance solicitors' operational quality and customer-centric sales.

[Overview of this Update]

① Expansion of supported insurance companies for bulk quotes (AIG Sonpo and Kyoei Kasai added)

② Commencement of AI comparison table and commentary generation function

③ Commencement of "Continuous Bulk Quote Function"

④ Addition of a specialized non-life insurance AI chatbot

⑤ Strengthening of information security system, including ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification

1. Background of the Update

In June 2026, with the enforcement of the revised Insurance Business Act, insurance agencies and solicitors will be more clearly obligated to compare multiple products and present products suitable for customers with justification. On the other hand, non-life insurance products are becoming increasingly segmented in terms of coverage and special clauses year by year, and the operational burden on solicitors to deeply understand and explain each company's products is steadily increasing.

Under the mission of "Making insurance peace of mind a given for everyone," our company aims to create an environment where solicitors can concentrate on dialogue with customers, which they should originally focus on, through the power of technology. This update embodies that philosophy.

2. Main Update Contents

① Expansion of supported insurance companies for bulk quotes (AIG Sonpo and Kyoei Kasai added)

We have added support for AIG Sonpo and Kyoei Kasai in the bulk quote creation function for automobile and fire insurance. We will continue to expand supported insurance companies in the future, prioritizing the handling status and requests of adopting insurance agencies.

・ Simultaneous quote creation for 6 companies is possible

・ Newly supported insurance companies: AIG Sonpo, Kyoei Kasai

・ Existing support: Tokyo Marine, Sompo Japan, Mitsui Sumitomo Kaijo, Aioi Nissay Dowa Sonpo

・ Future development: Scheduled to sequentially add supported insurance companies based on requests from adopting insurance agencies

② AI comparison table and commentary generation function (pre-release version)

We will newly provide a function that automatically generates a comparison table comparing products from multiple companies based on the created quotes. The AI automatically generates commentary on the differences in coverage, special clauses, and various services by referring to public information such as each company's official websites and brochures.

・ Output available in PDF and Excel

When choosing non-life insurance products, the focus tends to be on comparing premiums. This function visualizes the differences in coverage and special clauses, supporting an environment where customers can make choices that focus on the essence of coverage, not just premiums. For solicitors, it makes it easier to have justification for explanations, and it can be utilized as a foundation for comparative proposals with justification in response to the stricter recommended sales rules.

・ Function overview: Automatically generates a comparison table of multiple products based on quote contents

・ AI commentary: Automatically generates commentary on differences in coverage, special clauses, and services

・ Reference information: Uses public information such as each company's official websites and brochures

・ Future development: Adjustments are planned for utilization as a solicitation document with the approval of insurance companies.

[Regarding reference to product information]

The product information used for generating comparison tables and commentary refers to information published by each insurance company on their official websites, brochures, etc. Our company will continue dialogue with each insurance company and will proceed with discussions for future utilization as a solicitation document.

③ Continuous bulk quote creation function (pre-release version)

In response to the need to prepare multiple competitive quotes in advance for a list of renewals, we will newly provide a continuous bulk quote creation function. While the basic function creates a quote for each contract, this function allows multiple contracts to be automatically executed continuously by simply setting the information in a prescribed format.

・ Selection of executing insurance companies and setting of quote conditions are possible for each policyholder

・ Main features: Continuous automatic execution of bulk quotes for multiple contracts

・ Effect: Significantly reduces the time required for pre-renewal preparations

・ Future development: Under development with a view to integration with major agency systems and vehicle sales management systems in the automotive industry

④ Specialized non-life insurance AI chatbot (pre-release version)

We have added an AI chatbot specialized in automobile and fire insurance. It instantly answers questions from solicitors regarding products and coverage based on public information such as each company's official websites and brochures.

・ Depending on the question, answers may be generated not only as text but also in the form of a comparison table.

Amidst the diversification of coverage and special clauses to further protect customers, this aims to reduce the time solicitors spend "researching" and "keeping customers waiting."
