Top cyber carrier cuts quote response time from 6 hours to under 10 minutes with Feathery
Market-facing underwriters at a top cyber carrier were overwhelmed by competing interruptions — rush submissions, broker calls, urgent renewals, short-staffed teams, and submission clearance backlogs — that prevented deep risk evaluation work. Producers also faced days-long waits for quote responses, which negatively impacted bind rate.
With Feathery, the carrier's average quote response time dropped from 6 hours to under 10 minutes, yielding a double-digit increase in bind rate and projected savings of 6M in underwriter costs per year, while enabling the team to scale submissions without increasing headcount.
