Multi-Carrier Rating, Quote & Bind in One Platform
Connect carrier APIs, SelectRate ISO rating, AAIS and proprietary rating into one underwriting workflow from submission through quote, bind and issuance.
RQB within SelectConnect
RQB is the established Selectsys rate, quote and bind workflow. It sits inside SelectConnect, the broader distribution and connectivity architecture that carries one submission out to the rating, data, underwriting and policy systems an MGA, wholesaler or carrier already runs.
Programs use what they need: a program can run on carrier APIs alone, on SelectRate alone, or on several sources at once. Programs that rate and bind elsewhere connect through the other paths in SelectConnect instead.
Selectsys Platform→SelectConnect Distribution & Connectivity→RQB Rate, Quote & Bind
SelectRate is a standalone platform. It provides ISO rating and connects to RQB as one source among carrier APIs, AAIS and proprietary rating. It is not a component of SelectConnect and it is not required to run RQB.
Quoting and Binding as an Execution System
RQB connects commercial and specialty rating across multiple carriers, programs and lines of business. Use carrier APIs, SelectRate for ISO-based programs, AAIS rating and proprietary rating within one quoting and underwriting workflow.

Connect SelectRate to RQB
SelectRate provides configurable ISO rating for commercial insurance programs. Connect SelectRate to RQB to bring ISO-based programs into the same multi-carrier quoting and underwriting workflow as carrier APIs, AAIS and proprietary rating.
RQB is not just a quoting tool. It is the orchestration and underwriting layer that standardizes how submissions are evaluated, rated across multiple markets, compared, quoted and prepared for binding.
For ISO-based commercial programs, RQB can connect directly with SelectRate, allowing the same submission to flow from ISO rating into multi-carrier comparison, underwriting and quote-bind workflows.
For MGAs operating AAIS commercial lines programs, RQB applies AAIS rating logic and underwriting rules consistently before bind.
By enforcing rules, thresholds, and data consistency at the point of quote, RQB protects downstream issuance, renewals, accounting, and audit from rework and exceptions.
In production, RQB connects rating and underwriting to downstream policy administration, servicing and renewal workflows, feeding clean, validated data into the systems that follow. After bind, RQB can connect the completed transaction to downstream policy administration and payment workflows, including CoverPay for premium collection and payment processing, and the policy management system the operation runs.
MGAs and wholesalers looking to streamline submission-to-bind processes can benefit from understanding what a multi-carrier quoting platform really entails. RQB simplifies the journey from rate to quote to bind, giving teams speed and flexibility. Curious how RQB compares to legacy tools?
