Save time by automatically turning quote documents into digital invoices
Ascend, the leading financial operations automation platform for insurance businesses, announced today the launch of its Automated Invoicing (AI) feature, designed to simplify and improve the invoicing process for insurance agents. Ascend’s users can now upload any document into Ascend and leverage AI to automatically read and process data such as carrier, premium, coverage type, commission rate, and generate digital invoices and payment links with one click.
Ascend’s Automated Invoicing aims to significantly reduce the time spent on billing and payment tasks as well as reduce human errors by making it easier to directly transform documents like binders into personalized invoices. By leveraging AI, businesses no longer need to rely just on integrations with their management systems to transfer data into the Ascend platform.
“Ascend’s Automated Invoicing is a practical application of AI that saves insurance businesses significant time by automating time-consuming administrative work,” said Carl Niedbala, National Managing Director – Digital Product Strategy & Innovation of The Baldwin Group. “This empowers insurance professionals to spend time on the uniquely human work of risk management, client relationships and serving complex insurance needs.”
