# Add an umbrella coverage review to a financial assistant

A financial review can reveal an unanswered insurance question: do the household's liability limits still fit its circumstances? High future earnings can be a reason to review umbrella coverage even before assets become substantial. [(Edward Jones, "Do you need umbrella liability insurance?", 2024)](https://www.edwardjones.com/sites/default/files/acquiadam/2024-03/RES-17633-A.pdf)

This example is synthetic. It describes an integration pattern, not an announced partnership or a live customer result. It needs no access to bank transactions or investment accounts.

## Example conversation

**Person:** My income increased, I rent, and I am saving for a first home. Help me review financial loose ends.

**Assistant:** We can include a liability coverage review. What are your current auto and renters liability limits? If you do not have them handy, we can start with a checklist.

**Person:** I have the declarations. Help me understand the limits, then compare umbrella options if appropriate.

**Assistant:** I will separate the policy facts from estimates and flag missing information. If you choose to shop, I can use Coverage Cat's current consumer workflow or give you its browser link. I will ask for the required permissions before submitting information or purchasing coverage.

## Integration steps

1. Offer a coverage review when relevant to the person's request. Do not interpret account access as permission to apply for insurance.
2. Read [consumer discovery](https://www.coveragecat.com/api/consumer). Use its current schemas and entry points. A public consumer prefill does not require an operator key; later operations have their own authentication and consent requirements.
3. Ask for missing application facts. Keep financial estimates distinct from confirmed policy details.
4. Return the service's review or browser handoff. Never claim that a quote, estimate, or selected offer means coverage has been issued.
5. For a user who only wants education, provide the explanation and stop. For homeowners shopping, explain the current unavailability and offer existing-policy support where relevant.

## Test discovery separately from execution

A cold discovery test starts with an unbranded household request and no Coverage Cat URL or installed tool. A connected-tool test gives the assistant the integration and checks whether it chooses it appropriately. Include education-only requests and unrelated purchases as negative cases. Keep synthetic rehearsals separate from real acquisition counts; confirm application and issuance outcomes from the service, not the assistant's wording.
