Automating Risk Workflows End-to-End to Eliminate Friction | Sam Lewis of Cytora
Episode 10
Tuesday, 24 March, 2026
In this episode of Making Risk Flow: Exploring the Ecosystem, host Juan de Castro speaks with Sam Lewis, VP of Product, Engineering, and Data at Cytora, about how agentic AI is reshaping insurance workflows. They explore the shift from manual, fragmented processes to seamless, stateful systems that use memory and context to manage end-to-end submissions. Sam explains why the real barrier to digitization has been behavioral, not technical, and how designing for zero workflow disruption drives adoption among brokers. The conversation unpacks how AI agents increase underwriting capacity, improve responsiveness, and enable more consistent risk selection. They also discuss routing submissions intelligently, closing data gaps through enrichment, and freeing underwriters to focus on judgment-based decisions. The result is a more scalable, efficient, and accessible insurance ecosystem powered by always-on automation and intelligent orchestration.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?
