What they are doing
Cincinnati lists artificial intelligence inside a risk factor about underwriting and pricing models that are still being implemented and might be late or inadequate. That says the work is underway. It does not name a program or a result. On the 26 October 2026 call, Steve Spray said seven assistants summarize underwriting and claims files, and that AI handling of emailed submissions cut average time to quote by more than 30 percent in commercial lines and excess and surplus. He said agents treat speed to quote as a reason they win the account. He did not give a win rate. The assistants are internal. The published score is still 4. The recommendation, not yet accepted, is Reach 2, Weight 2, Proof 3, total 7.
Why the score
- Reach 1 not 2: implementation is mentioned, not a function we can see.
- Weight 1 not 2: a risk that the project may not land is not hygiene in production.
- Proof 2 not 3: named in the filing and tied to pricing models. No result.
What would move it next quarter: A win rate tied to the faster quote, or a pricing model. The 30 percent is intake speed.

Evidence
Cincinnati warns of delays or inadequate performance from ongoing development of underwriting and pricing models, including automation and artificial intelligence, that are expected to increase efficiency, pricing accuracy, and underwriting profit.
