Is RiskAdvisor a rater?

No. RiskAdvisor is an intake and carrier eligibility platform. It structures the information you collect on a risk and checks it against your carrier guidelines. It does not generate comparative carrier prices the way a rater does.

What is the difference between RiskAdvisor and a rater?

A rater takes risk data and returns prices from multiple carriers. RiskAdvisor sits one step earlier. It captures clean, structured intake one time, then runs that intake against your carrier rules to show which carriers are eligible before you quote.

Do I still need my rater if I use RiskAdvisor?

Yes. RiskAdvisor is built to work with your rater, not replace it. You keep rating and binding where you do today. RiskAdvisor feeds clean data into that process and helps you stop quoting carriers that will decline.

Does RiskAdvisor show me carrier rates?

No. Rates comes from your rater or directly from the carrier. RiskAdvisor tells you which carriers are likely to write the risk, then hands the structured data to your rater so you can price the carriers that are actually in play.

What does RiskAdvisor do before the rater?

It collects the risk details through a guided intake, applies data enrichment, and runs the result through UnderwritingAI. UnderwritingAI returns a simple green, yellow, and red view of carrier eligibility based on your loaded carrier guidelines.

Which raters does RiskAdvisor work with?
