Feature highlights

Federato redefines high performance
“By noon each day, each underwriter should have quoted the best three or four deals on their desk. Federato puts the power in their hands to be more selective and write the best business quickly, and to spend more time on the deals and relationships where their particular skills can come into play.”
“Traditionally, a submission might take up to 24 hours to pass to the underwriter. Now Federato is processing that in minutes. That frees our people to focus on far more valuable activity than data entry.”
“Federato lets us test and iterate on rules before deploying them, and develop goals based on aggregate conditions in our portfolio, which empowers our underwriters to work more deals that would otherwise require lots of back and forth with their manager.”

Frequently asked questions

01
What is Submission to Bind?

Submission to Bind is Federato’s AI-native underwriting workflow that evaluates every inbound submission for appetite fit and winnability, then drafts a strategy-aligned quote for underwriter review. No black box mysteries: Every decision is fully explained.

02
How does Federato prioritize submissions?

Federato scores submissions as they arrive using appetite criteria, portfolio context, and winnability signals. That helps underwriting teams focus first on the deals most worth pursuing.

03
What does “winnability” mean in Federato?

Winnability is Federato’s assessment of how likely a submission is to bind based on the signals available in the submission, workflow context, and portfolio strategy.

04
How does Submission to Bind improve quote turnaround time?

Federato removes manual intake, reduces re-keying, prioritizes high-value opportunities, and generates a quote draft up front for underwriter review, shortening the time between submission receipt and quote delivery.

05
How does Federato help improve underwriting results?

Federato helps teams spend more time on strategy-aligned, winnable deals and less time on poor-fit risks. That can improve hit rate, reduce cost per bind, and strengthen portfolio quality over time.

06
How does Federato reduce portfolio drift?

Federato brings live portfolio performance and exposure signals into the underwriting workflow. Leaders can set guardrails and rules that guide decision patterns before strategy drift becomes a problem.

07
Can underwriters review and edit AI-generated quotes?

Yes. Federato shows all underlying AI-generated recommendations and drafted quote content so underwriters can review, edit, and approve before anything is sent.

08
Who is Submission to Bind built for?

Submission to Bind is built for underwriting teams and underwriting leaders who need to improve speed, selection quality, and strategic control across their business.

09
Why does full policy lifecycle context matter at submission?

A risk should not be evaluated in isolation. When underwriters can see how similar risks performed across the policy lifecycle, they can make better decisions before the business binds.
