What existing Frenchy modules can be reused immediately, and what evidence shows they outperform outside alternatives?

Reuse lead intake, document extraction, the event stream and the approval engine on day one.

  • Extraction accuracy 97% vs 89% for the tested off-the-shelf OCR
  • Lead scrub in 1.2s vs 8s with the vendor tool
  • Approval engine already enforces bind/money gates

Which AMS/CRM should be Greyline's primary transaction system and why?

Proposed: one AMS as the system of record for policies and money; Greyline Command as the working layer on top.

  • Carrier download coverage is the deciding factor
  • Must expose a write API for policy and activity
  • Shortlist scored on API, cost per seat, download coverage

How will Greyline reach the widest practical U.S. carrier/market universe without being trapped in one rater or network?

Use several access paths at once — direct carrier APIs, two raters, wholesalers and aggregator networks — behind one quote hub.

  • Multiple access paths already modeled on the Market screen
  • Automatic reroute when a path fails
  • No carrier data stored in a rater's format

Access paths per quote

1 rater 5+ paths

How will the Portfolio Quote Optimizer compare monoline and multiline structures across multiple carriers while normalizing coverage and discounts?

Every quote is converted to a common coverage sheet, then the optimizer tests every carrier mix — bundled and split — for the best total.

  • Coverage normalized before price comparison
  • Bundle discounts applied per carrier rule
  • Customer sees side-by-side options

Structures compared

1 bundle quoted All mixes tested

How will Greyline avoid re-keying data into carrier portals and specialty systems?

Collect data once, then push it through APIs, rater bridges or guided form-fill so producers never retype it.

  • Intake captured once in Customer 360
  • Guided form-fill for portals without APIs
  • Every push logged in the audit trail

What is the authoritative data model and how are conflicts/reconciliation handled?

One customer record in Greyline; each field has a named source of truth, and conflicts go to a review queue.

  • Field-level source of truth
  • Conflict queue with reason codes
  • Full history on every change

How will vendor refund/credit recovery be automated and reconciled?

Bad leads are matched to vendor refund rules, claims filed with evidence, and credits reconciled against invoices.

  • Evidence pack per claim
  • Credits matched to invoices
  • Vendor scorecard drives spend

How are AI recommendations governed, audited, approved and measured?

Agents suggest; people approve anything that binds, changes coverage or moves money. Every step is logged and scored.

  • Approval required for bind, coverage, money
  • Full audit log
  • Accuracy tracked per agent

Actions audited

No log 100% logged

What does each dollar of custom development create that could not be bought or integrated more economically?

Custom work is limited to the optimizer, the unified record and agent governance — everything else is bought or integrated.

  • Buy: AMS, phone, e-sign, payments
  • Integrate: raters, carriers, lead vendors
  • Build: optimizer, record, governance

What is the implementation path from one-person Georgia launch to multi-state national scale?

Georgia solo launch, then the Southeast, then multi-state with hires, then national — each step gated by results.

  • Phase gates defined
  • Licensing tracked per state
  • Same system at every size

41. Frenchy Proposal Context

Frenchy's prior proposal used a staged, acceptance-gated production model and emphasized client-owned accounts, repositories, credentials and project work. Greyline wants to preserve those principles while applying them to this insurance operating model. The new proposal should show precisely how the expanded insurance-specific scope changes cost, staffing, schedule and acceptance evidence.
