The Company
What We Do
We believe insurance is about relationships. And technology should only make them stronger.
We exist to empower independent agents, carriers, and MGAs. To drive their success. Because their success is our success. And their ambitions for tomorrow are our goals for today.
Since our inception, we’ve been the technology backbone of the insurance industry. We began punching cards for independent agents over 50 years ago and turned this passion for technology into a relentless pursuit. Born
of human-centric purpose, we empower our customers with the technology to garner trust.
Built to adapt, we equip the insurance channel for the future—transforming business and relationships along the way. Where others see opposition, we see opportunity. To look ahead. To modernize. To prepare our customers for
what’s next—because we’re always thinking about it. Always innovating. Always building. Always creating.
Quite simply…we love insurance. Because behind every policy—is a person. And we’re obsessed with powering the spirit of our industry.
