DOVETAIL INSURANCE
Cloud-based multi-carrier quoting and binding platform for independent agents serving small commercial markets.
Overview
Dovetail Insurance is a cloud-based technology platform founded in 2006 that specializes in small commercial insurance distribution. The company built an advanced digital exchange enabling independent insurance agents and brokers to obtain real-time quotes from multiple top-rated insurance carriers and bind policies instantly online -- eliminating the manual, carrier-by-carrier quoting process that traditionally slowed small business insurance placement.
In August 2015, Dovetail was acquired by Marsh, a global leader in insurance broking and risk management, to strengthen Marsh's presence in the small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) insurance segment. The platform was subsequently integrated into Victor Insurance Managers LLC, a Marsh subsidiary, and repositioned as the "Victor for Agents" service in 2023. Despite this integration, the Dovetail Exchange platform continues to operate as a public exchange for small commercial distribution.
Dovetail serves as a B2B solutions provider, connecting independent agents with carrier markets across all 50 states. Its platform supports monoline and packaged commercial coverage, making it a key enabler for agents looking to expand their small commercial book of business efficiently.
