Below, is a brief description of the expected products regarding the Digital Insurance Platform :

Equisoft/Apply is a product that replaces paper insurance policy application forms. The product enables Equisoft customers to make instant decisions and issue policies in real time, and with its inherent flexibility and seamless integration with existing systems, it creates a common experience for purchasing, replacing, upselling and modifying policies.

Equisoft/Illustrate is a powerful life insurance illustration software. Highly flexible, it lets you weigh up options for one or more policy types, generate various scenarios and compare entire products or certain features. An insurer can thus provide its agents with a sales tool customized to its business and deploy sales strategies in line with product development.

Equisoft/Sync provides self-service access to information contained in insurance policy administration systems (such as OIPA) for advisors, agents, plan administrators, policyholders and individual customers. It enables agents to track their sales progress, and policyholders to consult their policies. This is the site that unleashes the full potential of data access.

  • Work closely with Product Management, Technical Architects and UX expert to align business strategies with technology solutions
  • Prioritize features to align with product strategy and various customer demands
  • Work closely with Product Management to create and maintain a product backlog according to business value or ROI
