What was said
What this says
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026Ed Duckworth reported about five people active daily on Starter, used for broker renewal prep, with no issues. He said no plans to upgrade or add connectors. Daniel Okafor planned a further check-in in about six months.
What happened: Daniel Okafor checked in with Ed Duckworth, Head of Insight, on 2023-10-27. Ed said about five team members had been active every day for the past month.
Customer view: Brokers use the brain for renewal prep, pulling claims history and recent calls before a client conversation. Ed reported no data quality or performance problems.
Commercial: Ed said the fifteen users are enough and the connector limit is not a constraint, so there is no upgrade appetite. A custom report request can be met with dashboards, which Daniel noted sit at Growth tier.
Watch: Value is concentrated in renewal prep, and Ed wanted no new data sources for now. The evidence does not show how many people sit behind the daily users.

Transcript
- Daniel OkaforHi Ed. How are you? Just checking in: how's the brain doing? How's the team using it?
- Ed DuckworthReally well, Daniel. Actually surprised by how much people are getting into it. We've had about five team members active every day for the past month.
- Daniel OkaforThat's brilliant. What are they using it for most?
- Ed DuckworthMainly what we built it for: renewal prep. A broker looks up a client, sees their claims history and recent calls, and that's their talking points for the call. Saves a lot of admin.
- Daniel OkaforHow often would you say each person's using it?
- Ed DuckworthEvery day for the active ones. The less active people maybe once a week. But everyone who's tried it gets the value pretty quickly.
- Daniel OkaforThat's good to hear. Have you hit any issues? Data quality, performance, anything?
- Ed DuckworthNo, it's all been smooth. Data looks good. One person asked if they could run a custom report, but it's something we can do with the dashboards, so we don't need a special query.
- Daniel OkaforGood. At Growth tier, you get the dashboard builder, so you could build that report yourself. But for now, Starter is working well?
- Ed DuckworthYeah, no plans to upgrade. The fifteen users are enough and we're not hitting the connector limit.
- Daniel OkaforExcellent. As we move into the back half of the year, are there any other data sources you'd want to connect? Other systems that might be useful?
- Ed DuckworthNot right now. We've got what we need. Maybe down the line, but this is doing the job.
- Daniel OkaforFair enough. I'm just going to come back to you in about six months, probably around March, just to check in on value and make sure everything's still working well. Sound good?
- Ed DuckworthYeah, that's fine. Cheers, Daniel.
- Daniel OkaforBest wishes. Speak soon, Ed.
