This post is part of a series sponsored by Selectsys.

As Cyber and Technology Errors & Omissions (Tech E&O) risks grow, insurers face increasing pressure to provide accurate, fast, and competitive coverage. Underwriters need tools that reduce complexity, integrate easily with carrier systems, and streamline the quoting and policy issuance process.

Selectsys Tech’s Underwriter Link is a versatile, out-of-the-box solution that underwriters can use independently or seamlessly integrate with PAS, MGA systems, or wholesale agency management systems at any point. With over a dozen API-integrated carriers, Underwriter Link eliminates the need to access multiple portals—underwriters can manage everything from one unified platform while retaining the flexibility to integrate as needed.

Key Benefits of Underwriter Link for Cyber and Tech E&O Underwriters

1. Out-of-the-Box Functionality with Optional Integration

Underwriter Link is a standalone tool that can function independently, giving underwriters the ability to start quoting and binding policies immediately. There is no need to integrate with other systems right away, and it can be connected to policy administration systems (PAS), MGA systems, or wholesalers’ agency management systems whenever required.

Key Features:

  • Use Independently: No immediate integration required—start using Underwriter Link out of the box.
  • Seamless Integration Options: Connect to PAS, MGA, or wholesale systems at any time.
  • Flexible Implementation: Integrate incrementally, ensuring smooth transitions without disrupting operations.

This flexibility allows underwriters to modernize their processes gradually, adapting the tool to their needs without heavy upfront investment in system integration.

2. Quote Once, Get Multiple Carrier Quotes Instantly

With Underwriter Link’s API integrations, underwriters only need to enter data once to receive

multiple quotes from participating carriers. This saves time and reduces the chance of errors by eliminating duplicate data entry across multiple systems.

  • All quotes in one place: No more logging into multiple carrier portals.
  • Compare instantly: Underwriters can review quotes side-by-side to select the best terms.
  • Instant binding: Once a quote is selected, policies can be bound directly from the same interface.
