Root, Inc., a technology firm specialising in insurance solutions and the parent company of Root Insurance Company, and Goosehead Insurance, Inc., an expanding independent personal lines insurance agency, have announced a new technology integration partnership that is transforming the agent experience.
This collaboration represents a significant advance toward their shared goal of improving the insurance process for both agents and clients with innovative technology.
By integrating Root’s streamlined, rapid quote delivery with Goosehead’s proprietary Quote to Issue (QTI) platform, the new system enables agents to complete the entire process—including application, coverage customisation, and payment—50% faster than previously.
Jason Shapiro, Senior Vice President of Business Development at Root, commented: “The agent experience has long been lacking innovation, user enhancements, and advanced technology.
“Recognising this gap, Root and Goosehead identified a unique opportunity to leverage our combined technological strengths to make the insurance-buying process more efficient. This partnership focuses on creating a fast, easy quoting experience for agents while delivering a great insurance product at a competitive price for clients.”
Root and Goosehead have collaborated to create a fully integrated insurance product that streamlines the distribution process by providing agents with direct access to bindable, actionable quotes for their clients. This integration enables agents to offer a fast, straightforward, and transparent insurance experience.
Brian Patillo, Executive Vice President of Goosehead, commented: “Investing in technology is paramount to our mission at Goosehead Insurance. This partnership with Root represents a significant advancement in our mission to deliver the best possible experience for our clients and agents.
“By integrating Root policies into our platform, we’re not only using technology to streamline the process for our agents but also ensuring our clients receive a top-tier product at a great price.”
