Faster Delivery, Smarter Control, and Built For Growth

MGAs using Guidewire accelerate product development, simplify distribution and gain real‑time visibility across a book of business. Because all programs and submissions live in one platform, you can avoid the delays and manual work caused by disjointed systems. Clear rules and audit trails support expansion while maintaining compliance.

  • Faster product design and delivery

    Prebuilt templates, integrated low-code tools, and configurable workflows help you move faster when you launch new programs, adjust ratings, or respond to market shifts. Business teams can make changes without relying on IT, and remove common bottlenecks that slow down delivery.

  • Improve digital distribution

    Broker and partner interfaces cover quoting, issuance, endorsements, renewals, and much more. Streamline placement, reduce administrative overhead, and strengthen broker relationships.

  • Scale with confidence

    A secure AWS-powered cloud architecture and open APIs make it straightforward to add programs, carriers, and channels. Rules‑based oversight keeps governance aligned as volume grows.

  • Gain visibility across operations

    Unified dashboards show live underwriting and service performance, providing a single set of data for internal teams and carrier partners.

  • Accelerate underwriting

    Workflows, rating engines and embedded rules are designed for delegated authority, helping underwriters process submissions quickly and consistently.

  • Reduce manual effort

    Integrated analytics provide risk scores at underwriting and suggest routing for service tasks. Focus on higher‑value work and spot trends earlier.

Capabilities Designed for MGAs with Growth in Mind


Guidewire delivers the tools MGAs need to expand programs, meet carrier requirements, and operate at scale without sacrificing performance. The platform is intentionally integrated and avoids the complexity of stitching together separate modules for policy administration, rating, distribution, or claims, and infuses AI into everyday workflows to drive speed and precision. 
  • A flexible interface empowers underwriting and product teams to develop, iterate, and launch new insurance products faster—without waiting on IT.
  • Open APIs simplify integration with broker platforms, embedded distribution channels, and internal systems.
  • Brokers and partners can view quotes, binders, endorsements, and status updates without needing to contact your team.
  • Real‑time dashboards surface underwriting, service, and operational KPIs, giving you and carriers data as it happens.
  • Guidewire runs on a secure, flexible cloud platform with built‑in resilience, allowing MGAs to scale without infrastructure constraints or service interruptions.
  • Underwriting authority, audit logic, and compliance checkpoints are embedded in workflows.
  • Internal data, risk scores, and third‑party insights are delivered at the point of decision. Predictive models and machine‑learning algorithms help MGAs improve risk selection, pricing, and claims outcomes.
  • First‑notice‑of‑loss submissions are captured digitally, triaged based on complexity and routed by configurable rules. AI helps prioritize claims and identify potential fraud.
  • Bordereaux production, multi-carrier coverage sharing, delegated authority, referral logic, and TPA coordination are all supported in one place.
