ABOUT THE SHOW
Insurance work, examined from the inside.
InsurePodcast is Ben Shaw’s interview podcast about the people changing how insurance work gets done. Season 1 went inside independent insurance agencies. Season 2, Post-SaaS Insurtech, asks how AI may change what insurance technology can do, how value is measured, and what customers can build on their platforms.

THE NEXT QUESTION
Why Post-SaaS insurtech?
Season 2 moves from the agency desk to the business model beneath insurance technology. “Post-SaaS” is a working term for how shared software may evolve as AI completes more work, value is measured in new ways, and governed AI access becomes another interface to the product.
