Cara automates the back office. We answer the front desk.
Cara is a well-funded, enterprise-leaning platform aimed at larger brokerages, networks, and wholesalers. It automates document-heavy servicing: ACORD forms, COIs, proposals, coverage comparisons, and ticket resolution. InsuraMate is built for the independent agency front desk, across personal and commercial lines: real-time calls, SMS, and a Microsoft Teams workflow in 85 languages, all matched and logged in your AMS.

Saturday, 8:50 PM. A Spanish-speaking customer calls about a claim.
Back-office automation is brilliant at clearing documents during business hours. It is not on the phone at 8:50 on a Saturday. The call goes to voicemail, and the customer starts the claim with their carrier directly.
InsuraMate answers in Spanish in under two seconds, pulls the policy from your AMS, takes the first notice of loss, texts the customer a checklist, and posts a Teams card your team can claim on Monday with the full transcript attached.
Cara would do great work on the paperwork afterward. InsuraMate is what picks up the phone while it is still ringing.
Cara is well-funded and genuinely broad on the back office, with traction among larger brokerages, networks, and wholesalers (customers like McGowan, ISU Steadfast, and the FirstChoice network). It cross-fills ACORD forms, generates proposals, compares coverage, runs E&O review, and auto-resolves service tickets. If you run a document-heavy commercial book and the servicing workload behind the scenes is your biggest pain, Cara is built for exactly that.
We're built for the independent agency front desk, personal and commercial lines alike. Every inbound call answered in under two seconds in 85 languages, every text handled by an SMS assistant, every missed call turned into a one-click Teams claim, and the customer matched to your AMS in real time. We also issue COIs and write back with a full audit trail. No enterprise rollout, just a front desk that stops missing customers.
If you run a larger or commercial-heavy brokerage and your priority is automating back-office documents and servicing tickets, Cara is a strong, well-backed choice. If you're an independent agency and your priority is answering every live call, text, and request the moment it arrives, across personal and commercial lines and 85 languages, and issuing the COI on the spot, that's what we built.
