When you’ve spent decades inside the independent agency system, you know the pain of underwriting chaos — juggling dozens of carriers, appetites, and rules that never seem to match up.

That frustration drove Trace Meek, a third-generation agency owner, to build something extraordinary: Ask Fetch — an AI-powered underwriting and quoting platform that cuts hours of manual work down to under 90 seconds.

In this episode, Trace shares:

  • How he turned a daily headache into a nationwide insurtech.
  • The “21x MIT Rule” that proves speed wins every time.
  • Why 400,000 industry veterans leaving the business will make AI essential for survival.
  • What the next 36 months look like for independent agencies who adopt (or ignore) AI.

Listen in — this one’s not theory. It’s the future unfolding, one frustrated agent at a time.

🎙️ Hosted by Michael Jans, Founder of The Society of Insura-Preneurs.
