Your InsurTech is scaling into carrier integrations. We make sure every release ships clean and compliant.

A bug in premium calculation logic isn't a UX issue — it's a regulatory filing error and a potential bad faith claim. Insurance software has zero margin for release uncertainty.

The QA Problems Every Insurance Team Faces

We've seen these patterns across every insurance company we've worked with. They're not unique to you — but they are fixable.

1

Premium Calculation Logic Breaks Across Rate Filings

State-specific rate filings must be implemented exactly as filed with insurance commissioners. A code change that introduces a calculation variance — even by cents per policy — can constitute an unauthorized rate deviation and trigger regulatory action.

2

Claims Processing Regressions Create Bad Faith Exposure

Bugs that cause claims to be incorrectly denied, delayed, or underpaid expose carriers to bad faith litigation and regulatory complaints. Claims logic is complex, state-specific, and almost never covered by systematic automated testing.

3

IVANS Integration Failures Break Carrier Data Exchange

IVANS (Insurance Verification and Notification System) is the backbone of carrier data exchange. Silent API failures corrupt policy data mid-cycle, causing downstream processing errors and compliance violations that aren't caught until audit time.

4

Renewal Workflow Regressions Cause Lapse Events

Policy renewal is the highest-revenue, highest-retention flow. A bug in renewal logic—missed renewal dates, incorrect premium calculations, lost endorsements—causes lapses that damage retention metrics and create compliance exposure.

5

Actuarial Model Changes Have No Regression Safety Net

When actuarial teams update loss models, rating factors, or reserving calculations, engineering teams implement changes without systematic regression testing against known-good outputs. Errors propagate into financial reporting.

The Cost of Doing Nothing

These aren't hypothetical risks. They're the real costs other insurance companies have paid.
