What we scrape in insurance

Public premium quotes, product terms, regulator filings, agent directories and reviews, turned into comparable rows across carriers.

Insurance pricing is public but hard to collect: quotes sit behind multi-step forms, product terms live in PDFs and regulators publish rate filings in search portals that were never meant for bulk use. We script the quote journeys with the shopper profiles you define, parse policy documents into comparable fields and track filings and complaint data from state and national regulators. Everything is collected as an anonymous shopper would see it, with no account access and no real personal data.

Use cases

Jobs we are usually asked for

Quote collection across carriers

Define a grid of shopper profiles and we run them through carrier and aggregator quote forms on a schedule, recording premium, deductible and coverage so you can compare like with like over time.

Rate filing and complaint tracking

Scrape new rate filings, approvals and complaint statistics from regulator portals as they appear, with the filing documents parsed into fields and the original URL kept for every record you receive.

Policy terms comparison data

Extract coverage limits, exclusions and fees from policy wordings and product summaries into a field-by-field table across carriers, refreshed whenever the documents change on the carrier's site, with the document version kept.

Questions

About insurance scraping

Do you submit real personal details into quote forms?

No. Profiles use synthetic, clearly fictional details that the forms accept, and we keep volumes low enough to look like a comparison shopper. Where a site's terms forbid automated quoting we say so and leave it out.

Can you track rate filings in all US states?

Most states publish filings through portals we can scrape or through SERFF; a few require manual requests. We list coverage state by state in the scoping response.

How often do premiums need to be refreshed?

Weekly or monthly is common for pricing studies; daily for aggregators watching a few products. Cadence is agreed in the quote along with the number of profiles.

What does an insurance dataset cost?

A one-off quote sweep of one carrier or aggregator starts at $500. Recurring multi-carrier collection is quoted monthly based on profiles and frequency.
