The Great Divide in Insurance: Cut Your Workload in Half—or Fall Behind


Listen Later

AI is no longer a tool in the insurance industry—it’s becoming the operating system.

In this episode, Michael sits down with Samuel Belanger-Lamoureux, Co-Founder of Cemiar, one of Canada’s fastest-growing insurtech firms, to explore what’s really happening beneath the surface of “AI adoption.”

What emerges is not a conversation about tools—but about a fundamental restructuring of how agencies operate.

Cemiar is one of Canada’s leading insurtech firms, built and led by top engineering talent focused on transforming operational efficiency for insurance agencies.

In this conversation, we explore what happens when automation moves beyond tasks—and begins to take over entire workflows.

One standout example:

👉 Cemiar’s Commercial Lines automation module can reduce the need for human intervention by more than 50% in key workflows—while improving accuracy and reducing operational risk.

But the bigger story is this:

  • Most agencies still can’t access their own data
  • Integration—not AI—is the real bottleneck
  • The winners won’t be tool users… they’ll be system builders
  • We also discuss Cemiar’s expansion into the U.S. market and their upcoming vendor session at Applied Net this October.
