Before we started using the InsCipher surplus lines management system, I was always worried that there was some surplus lines report or payment I was forgetting - not anymore. I sleep much better knowing InsCipher is tracking these things for me.
InsCipher has been a critical partner in helping us navigate the historically paper-driven surplus lines tax filing process. InsCipher provides an intuitive, tech-enabled platform for agencies/MGAs who are primarily digital, and focused on back-end workflow improvements.
What used to take us hours and consistent back and forth with various states is now a simple monthly reporting task. The team is friendly, knowledgeable and very easy to work with.
