02How it works

2. Present neutral examples
3. Check comprehension
4. Capture client questions
5. Flag advice requests
6. Export meeting notes

Workflow

The buyer creates a project, supplies broker-approved explanations and examples, and confirms scope and access. The working sequence is: 1. Explain approved terms. 2. Present neutral examples. 3. Check comprehension. 4. Capture client questions. 5. Flag advice requests. 6. Export meeting notes. Users correct extracted facts, resolve flagged uncertainties and approve the final insurance literacy learning pack before use. Retain source links and a version history for the next cycle.

AI and people

Adapt approved explanations while routing advice questions. Keep model suggestions separate from verified facts. Link factual outputs to authorized input evidence and show missing information explicitly. Use deterministic checks for counts, dates, identifiers and arithmetic where applicable. A designated reviewer validates consequential outputs and signs off the delivered result.

Screens

Key screens: Term explorer, Scenario lesson, Question notebook. Provide a learner home with the next useful lesson, a practice activity and progress evidence. Give authors a source-linked course editor and assessment review queue. Supervisors see completed tasks and explicit sign-offs. Use short modules that work on mobile as well as desktop. Open with term explorer; move into scenario lesson for the detailed task; finish in question notebook for review and handoff. Show the source record, uncertainty and approval status beside each proposed output.

Admin

Learner enrollment, content versions, assessment review, role pathways, accessibility options, supervisor sign-off, progress records and source update alerts. Include organization-scoped access, named project owners, review queues, usage limits, export history and retention settings. Never reuse private customer material for other accounts without permission.
