Review the results, save the selected quote to the contact, and authorize branded PDF delivery separately. A standalone chatbot answer is not a live insurance quote. An insurance agent can generate a aca quote with Claude by connecting it to unLocked CRM on Pro or Max, confirming the required client details, and requesting a live quote through the supported connection. Review the results, save the selected quote to the contact, and authorize branded PDF delivery separately. A standalone chatbot answer is not a live insurance quote. ## A Live Quote Is Different From A Chatbot Estimate Claude is the conversation tool; unLocked is the quoting and record-keeping platform. A useful request names the contact, product, and confirmed inputs. An answer that merely describes typical premiums or explains coverage is not evidence that a live quote action ran. Look for returned quote results before presenting a price. This guide covers **compare metal tiers with the same inputs**. The example below uses a fictional test contact, not a real client. The same supported quote catalog applies across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Grok; this workflow is not an exclusive capability of Claude. ## Connect Claude Before You Quote Start with the [Claude integration page](/integrations/claude) and approve only the access needed for the task. Connected quoting is available on Pro and Max. An unrelated chat account without the unLocked connection cannot retrieve your live CRM quotes just because you name a contact. Confirm that the assistant can identify the correct contact and request the supported quote type. If the connection is unavailable or permission is denied, resolve that first rather than asking it to estimate a premium. Customer data is never used to train AI, and unLocked remains the system of record. ## Confirm The Inputs For ACA Confirm state, ZIP and county, coverage year, household size, expected household income, and who is applying. Review dates of birth and available household, prescription, and provider details. When a contact is attached in the ACA Quoter, the record can supply household size and income, spouse details, up to six dependents, prescriptions from Drugs, and doctors from Providers. In a connected AI conversation, review the returned contact context and confirm missing quote fields instead of assuming the whole household was passed automatically. Have the assistant list missing information before running the quote. Correct stale details on the record rather than repeatedly working around them in conversation. The goal is a quote based on confirmed inputs, not a confident response based on guesses. ## Compare Metal Tiers With The Same Inputs Use this example with a test contact, replacing the fictional details with information you have verified: > Quote ACA plans for my test household with the confirmed income, applying members, county, and year. Compare available Bronze and Silver options using the same inputs. Show deductibles and estimated net premiums. Do not send anything. An inexpensive premium can come with different cost sharing. Do not presume cost-sharing reductions apply without checking eligibility and the selected plan. Natural-language wording can vary; this is not a guaranteed command syntax or a demonstration of an actual carrier result. The connection may ask for additional fields. If it returns general advice instead of quote results, ask whether the live quote action ran and which information is missing. ## Review The Result Before Saving It Separate full premium from estimated net premium after any estimated tax credit. Compare deductible, maximum out-of-pocket costs, metal tier, network, and available drug coverage information. A subsidy estimate is not a final eligibility determination. Check that the results belong to the intended contact and match the requested location, product, coverage period, and assumptions. Ask for clarification on omitted fields. Do not fill in missing benefits from memory or let a general explanation stand in for the carrier's terms. After review, ask Claude to save the selected quote and file it on the contact. Confirm that the saved quote can be retrieved from that contact's quote list. That read-back matters: a statement in chat saying “saved” is not a substitute for the actual record. ## Inspect The PDF And Authorize Delivery Request the saved quote's branded PDF link **without sending it**. Inspect the presentation first. When approved, you can request email or text delivery now or scheduled, using saved wording and a chosen mailbox where applicable. Confirm the recipient and timing. Messaging usage is separate from the subscription. You can later list scheduled sends or check quote opens through supported actions. An open is a follow-up signal, not consent to enroll or evidence that the client accepted the coverage. E-apps are live in unLocked, but starting an application directly from an AI quote is not currently supported. ## When To Use An Intake Or Quote Link Instead [ACA Intake Links](/aca-intake-link) collect information, not quotes. Marketplace and [private off-exchange health plans](/private-health-plans) are distinct: do not describe an off-exchange premium as eligible for Marketplace tax credits. An agent-led quote request, a client intake form, and a client-facing quote link serve different jobs. Choose the path that fits the conversation; do not promise prices from an intake-only form. ## Key Facts And Sources These are product workflow guides, not independent research or a claim that one model produces better insurance rates. The live quote catalog and permission rules, rather than the assistant's brand name, determine supported actions. - [unLocked Supported Actions](/api#supported-actions): live quoting, saved quotes, underwriting, branded PDFs, scheduling, and quote opens. - [Quote From AI Tools](/quote-from-ai-tools): supported product lines, connection access, and current application boundary. - [ACA Product Page](/aca-marketplace): product-specific quoting context. - [Claude Integration](/integrations/claude): supported connection overview. - [Usage-Based Pricing](/usage-based-pricing): delivery costs separate from seats. - [HealthCare.gov Plan Preview Guidance](https://www.healthcare.gov/apply-and-enroll/health-insurance-plans-estimator-overview/): preview prices and savings are estimates; exact prices follow the application. ## Continue With The Client Relationship unLocked is the **AI CRM for insurance agents**, connecting lead intake, quoting, CRM e-apps, policies, and commission management. That full platform lifecycle does not mean every stage is executable in a connected chat. Keep the client review and enrollment steps explicit, and use only the supported action catalog for external-AI work.
