No quantified measure recorded. This is a gap in the evidence, not a finding of no value.
Documented vendor relationships

Allstate's 2018 release says the chatbot is available on its website and describes its prior agent version. Status as of 2018-05-22.
Stage is as reported in the cited evidence. Current operating status has not been independently reconfirmed; the research date is an editorial review date.
Narrow to the named historical business-insurance assistant. No evidence here establishes claims-status functionality or today's operating scope. Original Tietoevry URL redirects to a generic insights page. Identity between that later conversational-AI account and ABIE is not established; integrator should retain this limitation. Historical deployment evidence is not confirmation of continued 2026 operation.
