1-800-INSURANCE now provides a unified distribution layer that instantly matches consumers with vetted local agencies, eliminating the guesswork shoppers face when carriers exit markets or underwriting rules shift overnight.
Platform closes the gap between intent and conversations
The new system blends call routing, digital intake, and compliance workflows so agencies receive verified opportunities while maintaining their existing policy administration tools. Shoppers can dial the memorable hotline, click-to-call from local landing pages, or schedule appointments directly from co-branded experiences.
“Our goal is to make it effortless for consumers to reach a human who understands the nuances of their neighborhood,” said Kirk Brunson, co-founder of Aegis Platforms and 1-800-INSURANCE. “We’re bringing the speed of modern marketplaces to independent agencies without stripping away the personal relationships that win renewals.”
Founders steeped in agency and carrier operations
Greg Patnod, fellow co-founder, highlighted how the platform translates agency feedback into practical automation. “Independent agents juggle quoting, compliance, and retention while grappling with carrier appetite changes,” Patnod explained. “We built a single system that filters demand by line of business, service hours, and licensing so the right desk picks up every time.”
Agencies can join an early cohort to secure exclusive territories, preview the shopper journey, and access enablement resources tailored to their growth targets. Interested partners can reserve a spot at join1800insurance.com.
