Carrier IQ Launches Quote Applications, Setting a New Standard for Commercial Auto Underwriting Automation

Carrier IQ, a data intelligence platform transforming how insurance agents and motor carriers access and use commercial auto data, today announced the release of Quote Applications, a major product innovation that automatically builds complete, underwriting-ready submissions in minutes and stores them in one centralized system for easy access, reuse, and reference.

Designed for independent P&C agencies and brokers, Quote Applications replaces the outdated, manual workflows that have defined the industry for decades. Agents no longer need to bounce between FMCSA, data tools, spreadsheets, emails, and carrier portals. Carrier IQ now delivers all core underwriting data in a single, automated workflow, with every quote application automatically saved for future access and follow-up.

“Commercial auto has been underserved for too long,” said Scott Schubert, CEO & Co-Founder of Carrier IQ. “Agents are tired of working with systems built 15 years ago and static lists that are outdated the minute you download them. Carrier IQ is building the first real-time data platform built for the way agencies work today.”

Complete Submissions in Minutes

Quote Applications automatically pulls 184+ data points from Carrier IQ’s industry-leading commercial auto dataset, including:

  • Fleet list (VIN, make/model, type, year)
  • Crash history & violations
  • Operating states
  • Cargo & commodities
  • Authority details
  • Contact & ownership information
  • Out-of-service events
  • Policy & loss history

The result is a fully populated, structured underwriting packet that agents can review, customize, and export as a carrier, MGA, or underwriter-ready PDF.

“Accuracy matters,” said Schubert. “If you’re relying on stale spreadsheets or outdated portals, you will miss details and underwriters see that instantly. Quote Applications removes the guesswork.”

Built for a Market Ready for Change

With over 686,000 P&C agents in the United States and small independent agencies placing 88% of all commercial lines premiums, the market is massive and long overdue for modernization.

Carrier IQ is the modern alternative to legacy providers. While competitors rely heavily on older interfaces and static or slow-refreshing data, Carrier IQ is built from the ground up as a real-time data platform engineered for speed, automation, and integration.

What Sets Carrier IQ Apart

  • Real-time commercial auto data — continuously updated
  • Automation built into the workflow, not added as an afterthought
  • Underwriting precision with more complete and up-to-date data
  • Lead intelligence, including new ventures, reinstatements, and cancellations
  • Integrations with systems agents already use like NowCerts, AgencyZoom, and AgencyMate
  • A platform built for the next decade

In line with Carrier IQ’s commitment to empowering small and mid-sized independent agencies, Quote Applications is included at no additional cost.

“Legacy vendors charge extra for every module,” Schubert said. “We don’t. If you’re a Carrier IQ customer, you get Quote Applications automatically.”
