For Swiss insurance brokers and agencies

Sunday claim.
You're still there.

The brokerage reality

Why classic phone solutions fail brokers

Claims happen at night and on weekends

Water damage, glass breakage, liability incident: 40% of urgent claims arrive after hours. Whoever lands on voicemail then calls a competitor the next day.

40% of claims after hours

Routine calls block the advisor

Address changes, policy copies, status checks, billing questions: 60% of calls are pure routine — costing the advisor concentration and consulting time better spent at CHF 200+/hour.

Seasonal peaks are unplannable

Hailstorm, natural disaster, ski season: peak periods double call volume short-term. Building seasonal staff is hardly feasible in the Swiss labour market.

Claims capture is structured — when somebody captures it structured

Insurers expect clean claim notices with date, time, location, sequence of events, witnesses, estimated damage. Improvising on the phone produces queries and delays.

What changes

How fonea relieves your brokerage

No claim lost after hours

fonea captures claims 24/7 in structured form — date, time, location, sequence, estimated damage. Immediately as email or structured CRM record.

No insurance advice from AI

fonea never gives information on coverage, deductibles, or interpretation of policy terms. Such questions are captured structured and escalated to the responsible advisor. FINMA duties remain respected.

Consultation appointments straight into the calendar

First consultations, policy reviews, retirement planning: fonea sees all advisors' availability and books without callback. Includes CRM entry with concern and prep notes.

Clean triage between claim, routine, and consultation

Claim → structured notice + immediate escalation. Routine (address, policy copy) → handled automatically. Consultation request → appointment booked. Three clearly separated paths.

Typical call scenarios

How fonea handles brokerage calls

Water damage claim — Sunday 10:30 pm

Anrufer
A pipe burst, my whole ground floor is under water. What do I do now?"
fonea
I'm sorry you're going through this. I'll capture the report immediately. First: shut off the main valve if possible. Second: document with photos. Third: in acute danger, call 118 (fire). I'm noting your address, the exact sequence, and the time — and forwarding immediately to your case worker so they can contact you tomorrow morning."

Structured initial capture + immediate safety hints + clear expectation for follow-up.

Routine — address change

Anrufer
I moved and need my new address on the contents policy."
fonea
Of course. So I can record the change: can you give me your name, date of birth, and policy number? Then I'll take the new address and forward the update directly to the insurer. You'll receive confirmation by post or email."

Routine work without advisor effort. Quick, polite handling — case worker sees CRM entry and finalises.

Retirement consultation appointment

Anrufer
I'm retiring in two years and would like advice on what to do now."
fonea
Gladly. Mr. Marti handles retirement consultations — he has Thursday at 3:30 pm or in two weeks Tuesday at 10:00 am for a 60-minute first session. Which works better? Please prepare your last two pension certificates and an AHV statement."

Consultation booked, prep briefing supplied — advisor starts the session prepared.

Frequently asked

What brokerage owners need to know before using fonea

Is an AI assistant allowed to give insurance advice?

No — and that is exactly why fonea deliberately does not. Insurance advice under the ICA is reserved for brokers, agents, and qualified advisors. fonea captures claims structured, qualifies first enquiries, and books appointments — every substantive advisory question is escalated to your advisor immediately.

How is a claim captured in structured form?

fonea asks for policyholder, date/time of claim, location, sequence, affected persons/items, estimated amount, witnesses, and police report status. The data structure matches Swiss insurer requirements — you receive the report as email or directly as CRM entry.

Does fonea work with our CRM?

fonea connects to common CRM systems — Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics, Bsi, and broker-specific systems. We confirm the integration in the kick-off. If a direct connector is missing, handover runs reliably via email or webhook.

Is fonea FADP-compliant for insurance data?

Yes. Persistent data (customer, claim, appointments) sit in Switzerland. Transient voice processing in EU data centres with adequate protection level. The revFADP, GDPR, and Insurance Supervisory Act data-protection requirements are fully respected. Extended DPA clauses on request.

How does fonea handle seasonal peaks (e.g. hailstorm)?

fonea scales without limit and without hiring. In a storm event, calls jump from 60 to 200 — all answered in parallel, captured structured, and escalated by urgency. You only pay for actual call time.

Does fonea understand Swiss German and multiple languages?

Yes. fonea understands Swiss German in all dialects and replies in Swiss Standard German. Plus French, Italian, English, and Spanish — important for portfolios in Romandy, Ticino, and for expat customers.

Can we adapt claim capture to specific insurer requirements?

Yes. Per line combination (property, motor, liability, KTG, pension) we configure individual mandatory fields and claim codes. If e.g. Mobiliar or Allianz Suisse demands specific fields, we model this in the script.

What happens if a customer requests a contract change?

fonea captures the change request structured (policy number, requested change, desired effective date) and forwards to the responsible advisor. The legally binding change happens through advisor or insurer — fonea only takes the request.
