See Digital Quoting Built for the Complexity of E&S

One submission. Multiple markets. A faster path from risk to quote.

“The goal of this system was to be able to show agents every available market we have for the risk, side by side, from a single submission.”

– Nolan Whitenack, National Personal Lines Leader, Bridge Specialty Group

What happens when you take a traditionally labor-intensive E&S quoting process and build the technology around how agents and underwriters actually work?

In this Insurance Journal Demo Day, Cogitate joins Bridge Specialty Group (BSG) to demonstrate The Bridge, a digital personal lines marketplace designed to give retail agents access to available markets side by side from a single submission.

See how DigitalEdge helps simplify the journey from submission to bindable quote, while giving agents greater visibility into available markets, coverage options, and pricing.

In this demo, see how The Bridge:

– Starts with one common submission, using third-party data integrations to prefill information and reduce manual entry.
– Quotes multiple markets in parallel, bringing carrier indications together so agents can compare options in one place.
– Supports multiple quote versions and side-by-side comparisons, making differences in coverage, deductibles, and premium easy to identify.
– Responds to market capacity, allowing markets to be adjusted as CAT exposure and available capacity change.
– Keeps agent and underwriter communication together, creating a history of questions, changes, endorsements, and responses within the submission.
– Centralizes resources and training, giving agents on-demand access to underwriting guidelines, forms, documents, and video instructions.

Built Around the Business. Ready to Scale With It.

The Bridge demonstrates something bigger than digital quoting. It shows what happens when the platform adapts to the way an insurance organization wants to do business.

As new markets and opportunities emerge, the marketplace is designed to grow with BSG. Cogitate can onboard additional carriers to the platform in as little as four to six weeks.

For BSG, that means a digital experience that can expand market access while remaining intuitive for its retail agents. As Nolan Whitenack explains in the demo, the platform has been easy for agents to learn and provides resources that help them navigate the system.
