Overview

AWL, Inc. (formerly All Web Leads) is an insurance customer acquisition marketing and distribution company founded in 2005 and headquartered in Austin, Texas. The company connects consumers searching for insurance products with licensed agents and carriers through a proprietary closed-loop technology platform that qualifies and packages high-intent consumers as leads, clicks, and live calls.

AWL operates two primary divisions: InsuranceQuotes, a consumer-facing lead generation and comparison marketplace that serves 15,000+ agents across auto, home, health, life, Medicare, and small business insurance; and AWL Insurance Agency (AWLIA), a technology-driven independent agency with licensed agents specializing in Medicare and P&C products from top carriers. The platform processes approximately 100,000 consumer insurance inquiries daily across all 50 U.S. states.

Backed by Genstar Capital since 2015, AWL is one of the largest independent customer acquisition platforms in the U.S. insurance market. In 2015, AWL acquired insuranceQuotes.com (Bankrate's insurance division) for USD 165M, significantly expanding its consumer reach and content assets.
