  • Builds a reusable agent framework that works on insurance appeals, tax prep, and recurring document-heavy tasks — not one-off demos but a single agent design that generalises across regulated, sensitive domains.
  • The architecture principle: human approval gates + reviewable outputs, not autonomous submission. The agent drafts and organises; humans review and decide before anything leaves the system.
  • The critical insight: most “AI agent” demos stop at email drafting because that’s where safe automation ends. Moving to insurance and taxes requires confronting the full document intelligence stack — ingestion, citation, structured output — before any action.
  • Practical takeaway: build agents that “never send” as the default; auditability and approval gates are the feature that makes high-stakes domains tractable, not an inconvenient constraint.
