SCOTTSDALE, AZ, December 11, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Darkhorse Insurance Brokers announced the integration of OpenDialog's AI-powered re-engagement agent, Rhea, into its operational systems. The integration is intended to assist independent agents in addressing incomplete quote submissions and to support a more structured digital experience for prospective customers.

Insurance providers frequently experience losses when prospects discontinue the quoting process before completion. Conventional follow-up methods, including email reminders and outbound calls, often occur after a delay or fail to maintain continuity with the initial interaction. Rhea mitigates these challenges by re-establishing contact through WhatsApp and SMS using well-timed and individualized messages. This function is supported by insurance agency technology that maintains consistency throughout the quoting process.

Dan Garzella, CEO of Darkhorse Insurance Brokers, stated that Rhea introduces a revised framework for managing mid-process quote abandonment across insurer, agent, and broker operations. He reported that preliminary observations indicate increased engagement and a clearer return pathway for prospects who paused their applications. He also noted that timely and structured communication provides agents with a mechanism that supports more efficient progression through the quoting workflow.

Industry analysis from retail sectors shows that well-timed outreach can recover as much as 65 percent of abandoned activity. Darkhorse anticipates comparable outcomes as Rhea is applied to commercial insurance transactions that require direct communication. Addressing delays that contribute to incomplete quotes is expected to support improved conversion performance and strengthen customer experience metrics.

The integration aligns with Darkhorse's objective of equipping independent agents with resources that reinforce operational effectiveness across personal and commercial product lines. Rhea expands the set of tools available to agents seeking improved process management, faster response capability, and more structured customer engagement.
