Turnstile
Forms in. XML out. Simple.
Sadly, widespread agent adoption of traditional upload doesn't exist. Many agents still attach ACORD forms as PDFs and email them to carriers. On the carrier side, burdensome manual re-keying of those forms into their point-of-sale and back-end systems results in data errors, slow response time and high costs.
Turnstile is a subscription carrier web service that takes in ACORD forms and returns ACORD XML for feeding point of sale, CRM or policy administration systems. A clean, simple and ultra secure complementary service to your agent portal and agency interface, Turnstile shortens intake time, accelerates decision-making, reduces processing cost, and eliminates lost opportunities.
Faster turnaround = more business.
The longer an agent has to wait on a quote, the greater the chances of that potential business disappearing for the carrier. With faster turnaround, more accurate data, and better overall service, Turnstile creates happier agents, bringing more business to your doorstep.
No extra gear.
Because it is hosted, Turnstile gives carriers access to superior data extraction capabilities directly within their own processes through a customer-unique code or API key. No onsite installation of new hardware for you or agents; no extra screens or workflow; in fact, no user interface at all. Just a simple to use, highly available, and ultra secure service that integrates seamlessly with your existing system.
Hosting the solution also allows Agencyport to proactively monitor each response and continually adjust the transformation engine, improving the quality of output going forward.
Not like the other guys.
Comparable PDF transformation solutions force agents to download software, or impose middleman websites. Not Turnstile. It is the only truly web-based ACORD form transformation service available, allowing carriers to build the systems and user experience of their dreams.
The perfect partner for AgencyConnect and AgencyPortal.
AgencyConnect and Turnstile were built to go hand-in-hand—AgencyConnect receiving data from Turnstile in exactly the same way it does from systems like TransactNOW or Transformation Station. By pairing Turnstile and AgencyConnect, carriers can build powerful solutions implementing their own business rules including validation, correction, and defaulting before gracefully pre-filling AgencyPortal or other point of sale systems for an agent or underwriter.
