Our take
Life insurance shouldn’t be a chore. That’s the ideology behind Modern Life, a tech-boosted brokerage that aims to streamline and simplify the process of buying life insurance for advisors and clients.
Its selling point is the cohesive and user-friendly nature of platform, which assists right through from advice to purchase. As well as allowing for easier management of appointments and submissions, it provides data-driven quoting and comparisons, has partnerships with over 15 major insurance carriers and is licensed in every US state. All this allows Modern Life to create a properly centralized platform, holding a broad range of options for clients and helping advisors to work more effectively.
The life insurance market has largely relied on legacy tech for a number of years. Modern Life is a new and innovative player in the field, and has already struck a chord with advisors across the country. It’s focusing investment on widening its range of partnerships and options for clients.
