Carrier comparison tool for commercial insurance agents
Commercial agents need a view of which carriers fit each risk and whether appetite changed.
Why it can work
- Carriers are quoted by hand, which is slow.
- Agents discover appetite changes only when renewals are declined.
- Remarketing currently means building comparison spreadsheets.
Watch out
- Carrier appetite data may be hard to keep current.
- Agencies may not share a consistent workflow to build around.

The job to be done
Compare carrier appetite for each submission
When a commercial submission or remarketing account needs a carrier, the agent needs to see which carriers fit the line of business and risk and whether appetite has changed, so they can market the account without manual quoting carrier by carrier or discovering declines at renewal.
