In this episode of Pilot to Production, Joe Zuk, Operating Partner at Altamont Capital Partners, joins Karan Mishra, CEO of StitchStudio, to explore how MGAs, TPAs, and Insurtechs are using AI to solve real business problems instead of chasing trends.
Joe shares how insurers are learning to start small, prove ROI, and scale with intention — from fixing messy data foundations to deploying AI where it truly moves the needle.
He explains why success comes from aligning technology with business constraints, leadership priorities, and operational goals — not from innovation for its own sake.
This is a practical look at how the next generation of insurance companies is turning AI strategy into tangible outcomes.
