QuickFacts
Smarter underwriting comparisons and streamlined workflows for insurance brokers
Overview
QuickFacts is a Canadian insurtech company that consolidates insurance carrier information into a user-friendly, searchable database built specifically for insurance brokers. Co-founded in late 2020 by Christy Barsalou and Jeff Barsalou, the platform was born from firsthand experience with the inefficiencies brokers face when navigating multiple carrier portals and manually comparing underwriting guidelines. QuickFacts describes itself as "built by brokers for brokers."
The platform enables side-by-side underwriting comparisons, provides direct access to carrier manuals, forms, questionnaires, wordings, and bulletins, and offers customizable workflow tools that optimize brokerage operations. QuickFacts reports that its software reduces underwriter calls by up to 50%, saves brokers up to two hours per day, and cuts training and onboarding time in half. In 2024, QuickFacts users collectively saved an estimated 228,306 hours.
QuickFacts launched in September 2022 after piloting with eight brokerage firms starting in December 2020. The company has grown rapidly, tripling its active user base in just over one year to reach over 130 brokerage clients and 2,500 users across Canada. The company is actively expanding into the U.S. market and adding new commercial and agricultural product lines.
