What QuoteBurst does

QuoteBurst is a US-based private software company, founded in 2007 and operating as a division of Harris, that builds cloud-based quoting automation tools for insurance agencies. The company was founded by Bruce Thompson, an Allstate agent, and Stephen Bentley, a software engineer, and is headquartered at 2429 Military Road Suite 300, Niagara Falls, NY. Its suite consists of four products: Dynamo (bulk lead quoting with capacity for up to 50,000 leads in 48 hours with DNC/DNM scrubbing), Typhoon (real-time internet lead quoting delivered within seconds, 24/7), Flashback (requoting of saved quotes with current rates and discounts, also up to 50,000 leads in 48 hours), and the more recently introduced Qblife (bulk life insurance quoting). All products integrate with lead management platforms and support printing, emailing (including CAN-SPAM ACT-compliant emails for Allstate agents), and mailing via the TaG print/mail service.

The underlying technology is a cloud-based quoting automation platform with deep integration into Allstate's Advisor Pro system and connections to 80+ lead providers including QuoteWizard, EverQuote, MediaAlpha, and Data Axle Genie. QuoteBurst holds Allstate Select Vendor Approved status, which provides access to the Allstate Lead Marketplace and signals compliance validation within the Allstate agent ecosystem. The platform is differentiated by volume processing speed, automated compliance scrubbing, and workflow-specific tooling for the three core quoting motions (bulk lists, real-time internet leads, and requotes).

QuoteBurst generates revenue through subscription-based software licensing of its products, with a bundled 3-product pricing option that is not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market combines a product-led/self-serve website motion with direct inside sales and phone/email engagement, supported by Splashtop-based remote support sessions. The company serves two related customer segments: independent insurance agencies broadly (SMB) and Allstate agents specifically (enterprise channel via the Select Vendor program). The company is privately held, has 11-50 employees, has not raised external venture funding, and operates exclusively in the US market.

Direct peers

• AgencyBloc: AgencyBloc is a CRM, agency management, and lead-tracking platform purpose-built for life and health insurance agencies. It is comparable to QuoteBurst because it serves the same agent customer and addresses the lead-to-quote workflow, particularly relevant as QuoteBurst expands into life insurance with Qblife.
• Velocify (ICE Mortgage Technology): Velocify is a lead management and sales engagement platform originally focused on mortgage and insurance lead routing, prioritization, and follow-up workflows. It is comparable to QuoteBurst because insurance agents use Velocify as the downstream lead manager that receives the quoted leads QuoteBurst's Typhoon product pushes into systems like Advisor Pro.
• Hearsay Systems: Hearsay Systems provides digital marketing, social media, and lead engagement tools tailored specifically for insurance agents and advisors. It is comparable to QuoteBurst because both products sit in the insurance-agent-marketing software stack and compete for the same customer's marketing and lead-conversion budget.
• EZLynx: EZLynx is an insurance quoting and agency workflow platform that lets agents compare rates and bind Auto, Home, and other personal lines across multiple carriers. It is the most direct competitor to QuoteBurst, since both products focus specifically on automating the quoting process for independent insurance agents.

Others

• MediaAlpha: MediaAlpha operates a customer acquisition platform that powers insurance lead marketplaces for carriers and agents. Like EverQuote, it sits upstream of QuoteBurst as a lead provider that QuoteBurst ingests via its 80+ lead provider integrations to drive automated quoting volume.
• EverQuote: EverQuote is an online insurance marketplace that connects consumers with insurance agents and carriers, operating as a major source of the internet leads that QuoteBurst's Typhoon product helps agents quote in real time. It is an ecosystem participant rather than a direct competitor — QuoteBurst integrates with EverQuote as a lead source.

Broad incumbents

• Zywave: Zywave is an insurance agency technology platform offering content, marketing, agency management, and digital solutions for insurance brokers and agents. Its sales and marketing automation offerings overlap with QuoteBurst's quoting and lead-to-quote workflow, positioning it as a broader incumbent in the same agent-tech category.
• Vertafore: Vertafore is a leading provider of agency management systems and insurance software (e.g., AMS360, Sagitta, PL Rating) used by independent agencies for quoting, policy administration, and accounting. It competes with QuoteBurst at the broader agency-suite layer, where its built-in rating and quoting capabilities can substitute for QuoteBurst's point tools.
• Applied Systems: Applied Systems offers Applied Epic and other agency management solutions used by insurance agencies to manage quoting, policy, and client workflows. Like Vertafore, it is a broad incumbent whose integrated rating and quoting features overlap with QuoteBurst's stand-alone quoting automation products.

Emerging players

• Rocket Referrals: Rocket Referrals is a client experience, referral, and retention platform built specifically for insurance agencies. It is comparable to QuoteBurst as another insurtech point tool competing for the same insurance-agent customer's marketing and pipeline budget.
