As at Fri 9 Oct 2026Second demo, 2 Sep 2025. Siobhán Dunne wants broker dashboards and a clear view of connector effort. She wants Brendan to see a written proposal and says budget is his call, with a decision date of 26 Sep 2025.
What happened: Hannah Lowe walked through connectors, then built a three-tile broker dashboard live. Siobhán asked for the claims view to be split by handler.
Customer view: She is comfortable with Growth limits, forty users and eight connectors, and expects four or five connectors at the start. She would keep dashboard builder rights to herself and her engineer.
Commercial: She likes the product but is not committing budget. Brendan holds that decision and has not yet seen the demo.
Watch: Three data fields need confirming on the customer side: first response, handler and broker naming. The first response field is already known to have two processes writing to it.

Transcript
Lewis KerrGood afternoon, Siobhán. Hannah's here too. Can you hear us?
Siobhán DunneAfternoon, both. Yes, loud and clear. Sorry, I'm eating a sandwich at my desk, I've had back to back since nine.
Hannah LoweDon't mind us. Siobhán, as it's the second demo, what do you most need to leave with today?- Siobhán DunneDashboards, for the broker managers. And connectors. How does it actually get the data out of our systems and how much work is that for my engineer? She's asked me about nothing else all week.
- Hannah LoweGood, then I'll start with connectors and finish with dashboards. Sharing my screen. This is the connector page. Each source is a connector: the CRM, the helpdesk, the document store. You switch each one on, give it read access, and choose what it should pull.
- Siobhán DunneRead access only?
- Hannah LoweRead only. It never writes back to the source. I'll put that in writing, because I know your compliance people will ask.
- Siobhán DunneBrendan will. He keeps a folder of every version of everything.
- Lewis KerrWhich is why I like working with him, to be honest. Nothing gets lost.
- Hannah LoweSo for you on Growth, you'd have up to eight connectors. From what you've described, you'd probably need around four or five to begin with. That leaves room if you add something later.
- Siobhán DunneSo we'd not be bumping into a limit straight away.
- Hannah LoweNo. The connector limit is a hard one, so it's worth planning, but you've comfortable headroom. The user limit is softer, and for Growth it's forty.
- Siobhán DunneForty's fine to start. We'd be nowhere near that for a while.
- Hannah LoweGood. Now, how long does it take? The short answer is the first connector can be live quickly. The longer answer is that the time goes on agreeing what to pull and cleaning the awkward fields, like the one we found last time.
- Siobhán DunneThe first response field. Yes. My engineer's been looking at it. It's down to two different processes writing to it, it turns out. So we'll tidy that regardless.
- Hannah LoweThat's very helpful, and honestly that's what implementation is mostly about. Not the plumbing, the agreement on what the data means.
- Siobhán DunneRight. Let's do dashboards, then, because I've been looking forward to those.
- Hannah LoweDashboards builder. It's one of the things Growth adds over Starter. I'll build one live. Siobhán, tell me what a broker manager would want to see when they open it on a Monday.
- Siobhán DunneTheir top brokers by activity, any claims that have been sitting, and queries that haven't had an answer. Three things. Let's keep the brokers front and centre.
- Hannah LoweThree tiles, then. First, brokers by activity. I choose the source, group by broker, and there it is. Second, the claims tickets open for longer than a set number of days, which you choose. Third, policy queries with no reply.
- Siobhán DunneThat's quick. And can the manager change the filter themselves? Or does it come back to me?
- Hannah LoweThey can change filters on their own view without touching the dashboard itself. Only people you give builder rights to can change the dashboard. You decide who.
- Siobhán DunneGood. I'd keep that to me and my engineer at the start.
- Lewis KerrThat's sensible. Siobhán, if I can come in briefly, is there anything you've seen so far that you'd want changed?
- Siobhán DunneHonestly, the thing I'd want is the claims view split by who's handling it, not just the broker. Is that possible?
- Hannah LoweIf the handler is a field in the helpdesk, yes. If it's in someone's head, no. Do you know?
- Siobhán DunneIt's a field. I'll check it's filled in consistently, mind. Which, after the last one, I shouldn't assume.
- Hannah LoweHa. Fair. I'll add it to the list of fields to confirm. Let me recap what we have to check on your side: first response, handler, and broker naming. Three things.
- Siobhán DunneThree things. Got it.
- Lewis KerrSiobhán, from a timing point of view, where does this leave us? I'd like to confirm the plan rather than assume it.
- Siobhán DunneI think I want Brendan to see this, then a proposal in writing. I'm not committing budget, that's his call, but I'm happy to say I'd like it.
- Lewis KerrUnderstood. So I'll send the proposal, and we'd book it in with Brendan around 10 Sep 2025 so that everyone's had time to read it. The date I'm working to for a decision is 26 Sep 2025, and I'd rather it was comfortable than rushed.
- Siobhán DunneThat's fine. I'll tell him to put it in his diary.
- Hannah LoweI'll send the connector list and the three data fields in writing today, so your engineer has them. Anything else?
- Siobhán DunneNo, that was grand. Thanks a million, both.
- Lewis KerrThanks, Siobhán. Speak soon.
