​ALEXANDRIA, VA, June 27, 2022— Synatic is the newest company partner of the Big “I" Agents Council for Technology (ACT). Synatic provides a data automation and integration platform for agencies.

“Data management is key for independent insurance agencies to meet the expectations of today's customers but automating cumbersome data management processes and siloed systems are glaring pain points in the independent agency channel," says Chris Cline, ACT executive director. “ACT is excited to welcome Synatic on board to improve solutions for agents to turn data into insights and insights into action." 

Synatic's Hybrid Integration Platform allows agencies to aggregate data, push it to the right system, and operationalize data to work together with other systems. Synatic brings together extract, transfer, load (ETL) processes; application programming interface (API) management; data warehousing; and integration into one solution to help insurance agencies bring together disparate sets of data from multiple systems. With the platform, agencies can sync systems, automate the rate, quote and bind process, and integrate with both customer portals and carrier systems.  

“At Synatic, we believe in demystifying data—all the more important as easy, seamless data integration is a must have for agencies in today's environment," says Jamie Peers, vice president of business development and alliances at Synatic. “We're proud to partner with ACT to continue focusing on solutions that empower independent agencies to take control of their data."
