CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ManageMy and illustrate inc. today announced a partnership that brings their complementary platforms together. ManageMy is the Deep Front-End platform for insurance carriers, and illustrate inc. is a sales-to-issue technology partner for life insurance, annuity and pre-need carriers and distributors. Together, they connect the journey from needs analysis to policy servicing, giving carriers a more connected experience without overhauling existing core systems.

For agents, the partnership eliminates the friction of navigating disconnected tools at the point of sale. For carriers, it accelerates the path from quote to issued policy while maintaining the configurable, API-first architecture both platforms share.

“Life carriers are under more pressure than ever to deliver experiences that make the advisor, or agent, experience as straightforward as possible. Multiple systems that do not interact often stand in the way, causing agent frustration and reducing the flow of new business,” said Stuart Johnston, CRO of ManageMy. “This partnership enables agents to access all the tools they need in one place. Working with illustrate inc. further enhances ManageMy’s integrated services offering and delivers an out-of-the-box agent experience that improves the ease of writing new business and supports carriers’ revenue growth strategies.”

A More Connected Journey for Carriers and Agents

  • Connected Agent Experience: Give agents one place to access the tools and information they need to sell and service policies, with less time spent navigating disconnected systems, all through secure single sign-on.
  • Better Conversations at the Point of Sale: Equip agents with real-time, mobile-accessible tools for compliant illustrations, premium comparisons, and needs-based selling, so they can help clients make confident decisions in the moment.
  • Faster, Simpler Applications: Enable personalized buying journeys with pre-filled, guided forms and seamless data capture, all embedded into a unified digital experience.
  • Integrated Policy Servicing: Allow customers and agents to update beneficiaries, download documents, submit servicing requests, and track policy status from one secure portal.
  • Accelerated Sales Cycles: Shorten time-to-issue by combining quoting, illustration, and e-signature tools with a white-labeled interface that promotes transparency and trust.
  • Data-Driven Engagement: Use behavioral insights and engagement analytics to proactively surface upsell opportunities, trigger communications, or recommend coverage adjustments.

“Carriers and distributors have spent years stitching together point solutions and workarounds just to keep up,” said Cindy Wang, COO of illustrate inc. “What they need now is technology that brings those pieces together, so they can address their most urgent needs first and scale in a way that makes sense for their business, without disrupting critical operations. That’s what this partnership makes possible. Our clients gain robust capabilities across their operations in a single, streamlined solution.”
