EverQuote Releases New White Paper Addressing Personal AI Agents and the Future of P&C Insurance Distribution

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — EverQuote, Inc. (Nasdaq: EVER), a leading provider of growth solutions for property and casualty insurance providers, today published a white paper titled “Agentic Barbarians at the Carriers’ Gates – Personal AI Agents and the Future of P&C Insurance Distribution” examining the impact of Personal AI Agents on the P&C insurance sector today and the opportunities for carriers to adapt and thrive in the era of agentic shopping.

The report helps carriers and other market participants understand and navigate new models for customer acquisition and engagement as AI reshapes insurance distribution. It details the rise of Agentic AI shopping in insurance and the unique elements of the P&C insurance sector that influence adoption – from insurance regulatory requirements to potential conflict with carriers’ existing customer acquisition and retention strategies.

“Agentic AI has the potential to shift insurance distribution in the U.S. and fundamentally change how consumers compare policy options, how often they shop, and how insurers compete for and retain their business,” said Jayme Mendal, CEO of EverQuote. “As a trusted growth partner for P&C insurance carriers for over 15 years, we have a front-row seat to this rapidly changing landscape. We see an important window now open for P&C carrier leaders to determine their role in shaping insurance distribution in the agentic era.”

EverQuote’s white paper draws on the Company’s deep expertise in AI-based digital customer acquisition, first-party analysis, secondary research and firsthand discussions with leading U.S. carriers. As part of a thorough analysis of Agentic AI’s potential impact on carrier customer acquisition and retention, the white paper also frames pragmatic considerations to help carriers adapt their distribution to meet agentic customer experiences, while mitigating risks like adverse selection, policy life compression, and regulatory exposure.

Market estimates, illustrative models, and the results of our own testing described in the white paper rely on assumptions and third-party data that we have not independently verified, and they may prove inaccurate.

Forward-looking statements are only predictions. They are based on our current expectations and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties.
