How Ohio Chamber Insurance Boosted Efficiency & Innovation with AI OWL Training

When Dan Martin of Ohio Chamber Insurance signed up for AI OWL’s training, he had no idea just how transformative the experience would be. Like many professionals, Dan had experimented casually with tools like ChatGPT—writing poems or testing fun prompts—but didn’t grasp the deeper potential of AI. That changed quickly.

“My biggest takeaway was I didn’t realize how much I didn’t know—and how easy it was to learn and use AI effectively.” — Dan Martin, Ohio Chamber Insurance

From Casual Curiosity to Real-World AI Integration

AI OWL’s training, led by educators like Katie Karabinos, took Dan and his team far beyond the basics. They explored ethical AI use, custom GPTs, data protection strategies, and tool integration. As a result, Ohio Chamber Insurance immediately secured a business-level subscription to ChatGPT with Teams access—crucial for maintaining compliance in the insurance industry.

Tangible Results in Workflow and Client Services

Dan’s team is already reaping major benefits from the training. They’ve implemented AI in several high-impact ways:

• Customized Compliance Documents: Account managers now use AI to create tailored compliance content for clients.

• HR Chatbots: They’re developing tools that use uploaded employee handbooks to answer HR queries without overstepping boundaries.

• Sales Enablement: Sales teams use GPTs to prospect more efficiently and gather deeper client insights.

  
  

“We’ve been able to do a lot more with less. The tools are saving us a ton of money while enhancing what we deliver to clients.”

Tools That Stuck: ChatGPT, Fireflies, Canva AI & More

Ohio Chamber Insurance gravitated toward tools like:

• ChatGPT (customized with GPTs)

• Fireflies.ai for call transcription

• Canva AI for creative work

• Polymer for AI-driven data visualization (a tool Dan plans to explore further)

  
  

These weren’t just experiments—they became integral parts of the agency’s daily operations.

An Educator’s Touch: Why AI OWL Stood Out

Dan credits the exceptional experience to the people behind the training. From the initial conversation at a Chamber event with Cas Maxwell to the delivery by AI OWL’s team, the journey was personal, hands-on, and professional.

“Everything Jack said AI OWL would bring to the table—they delivered, and then some. Katie and her team were phenomenal. That’s why we’re already planning the 2.0 version.”

Looking Ahead: Planning for AI 2.0

With the foundation laid, Dan’s team is now preparing for a deeper dive into AI tool development. Their next round of training will focus on building agency-specific applications—amplifying the initial success and creating even greater efficiencies.
