Where this applies
An agency-led life insurer reporting to investors on its own distribution. It says that in 2025 around five million online leads were generated for its agents with a 17 per cent conversion rate, that online-to-offline leads accounted for over half of agency new business in its five largest markets, that data-driven activity and leads management converted 19 per cent of existing customers and 14 per cent of new ones, and that AI training tools were used by more than 35,000 agents and leaders. The figures are the company's own; the comparison between users and non-users of the tools is not causal, and nothing here counts agents.
What this means
Finding people to approach is increasingly handed to the insurer's systems, which generate and score leads and pass them to agents. The meeting, and turning a lead into a client, remain the agent's work.
What it does not yet show
One insurer's own figures; they do not show whether agents now spend less time prospecting or how agent numbers changed.
What you can check
Open AIA's Annual Report 2025 and find "around five million online leads were generated for our agents, with a 17 per cent conversion rate".
Does it change the assessment?
No. The impact index is never moved by a single event. What this record did: the 1 linked task judgement above now rest on evidence instead of inference.
