## What We Do

Three products, one platform. Bermuda connects an agency's rater, CRM, AMS, and carrier portals into digital automated workflows — and gives AI agents the tools and live data they need to run them. An AI agent without tools and real-time data access just talks; Bermuda provides both. Agent-agnostic: bring any AI agent (or use Bermuda's) — whichever AI you choose, it runs on Bermuda's tools and real-time carrier data, both directions (download live data in, upload payments/documents/actions out).

1. **Rating** — Bermuda Rater: lead → quote → CRM → bind automation. Real-time rating engine and integration platform for carriers, MGAs, and agencies; instant Auto & Home quotes; real-time lead integration with top providers
2. **Policy** — Carrier Downloads: live carrier-portal data (due amounts, due dates, late fees, policy changes) read at the moment of action — not hours-old batch files (the key difference vs IVANS); powers payment, cancellation, win-back, and commission automation
3. **Agentic AI** — 40+ MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools in production plus ready-to-work AI agents for quoting, binding, payments, carrier uploads, and servicing — even on low-tech portals. Claude, ChatGPT, or any custom agent connects via the open MCP standard.

Also: client portals (self-service platforms with payment automation) and 30+ integrations.

# Agentic AI Solutions

**Page:** https://www.thebermuda.us/agentic-ai.html

An AI agent without tools and live data just talks. Bermuda's Agentic AI runs quoting, policy binding, payments, and carrier uploads on real-time carrier data — even across low-tech portals. Agencies can bring their own AI and use Bermuda's tools, or let Bermuda's agents run the workflow end to end.

## MCP Tool Gateway

Bermuda exposes its platform as MCP (Model Context Protocol) tool servers — the open standard AI agents already speak. 40+ tools are in production across four areas:

- **Rating** — create and retrieve quotes; vehicle, driver, and address lookups
- **Policy** — policy inquiry, payments, documents, carrier uploads
- **Knowledge** — semantic search over carrier guidelines and agency knowledge bases
- **Data** — read-only reporting and analytics queries

Works with Claude, ChatGPT, custom agents, IVR voice bots, and chat widgets.

It doesn't stop at Bermuda's platform: Bermuda also wraps an agency's existing systems — AMS, CRM, proprietary databases, legacy APIs — as custom MCP tool servers, governed by the same OAuth authentication and default-deny policy guardrails. One gateway, every tool your agents need.

### Security & Governance

- OAuth authentication for every agent — no shared keys, no scraping
- Default-deny policy engine: an agent can only call tools explicitly permitted
- Input-level constraints — e.g., cap payment amounts or limit scope per agent
- Every tool call is authenticated, logged, and monitored

### Real-Time Quoting Automation
Instantly generate quotes with precision. Eliminates manual data entry and accelerates the quoting process.

### Policy Binding & Synchronization
Policies bind rapidly while maintaining consistent data across all platforms. No human intervention needed.

### Automated Payment Processing
Simplify and secure payments with intelligent, error-free automation. Reduces processing errors and speeds up transactions.

### Seamless Carrier Uploads
Integrates with low-tech carrier portals — a major industry advancement. Documents upload and synchronize across carrier systems automatically.

### AI-Powered Servicing Agents
Replace repetitive human tasks with AI agents that handle routine servicing requests, freeing your team for strategic work.

## How It Works

1. **Data Collection** — Customer data is collected and feeds automated quote generation
2. **Quote & Bind** — Policies bind and payments process without human intervention
3. **Sync & Upload** — Documents upload and synchronize across carrier systems automatically

## Benefits

- Reduces human error through AI-driven processes
- Delivers consistency and accuracy in data handling
- Works with legacy systems and outdated carrier portals
- Enables teams to focus on strategic growth rather than routine tasks
- Saves 40+ hours per month on repetitive operations

# Frequently Asked Questions

**Page:** https://www.thebermuda.us/#faqs

## General

**What is Bermuda Rater?**
A rating engine and integration platform for carriers, MGAs, and agencies enabling real-time quote generation, API connections, and automated workflows powering customer portals and AMS systems.

**Who is it for?**
Bermuda focuses on enterprise insurance agencies — operations with custom workflows, multiple data sources, and high policy volume. Also serves carriers, MGAs, and digital agencies building insurance technology. Integrates with rating APIs, CRMs, conversion tools, and document systems.

## AI Agents & Real-Time Data

**Can my own AI agent use Bermuda?**
Yes — Bermuda is agent-agnostic. The platform is exposed as MCP (Model Context Protocol) tool servers, so Claude, ChatGPT, or your custom agent connects natively to quoting, policy data, payments, and carrier uploads — live data in, actions out. Access is OAuth-authenticated and default-deny: each agent uses only the tools you explicitly permit, with input-level guardrails like payment caps.

**How do you control what an AI agent is allowed to do?**
Every agent authenticates via OAuth and is governed by a default-deny policy engine: it can only call the tools you explicitly permit. Policies go down to input level — for example, capping the payment amount an agent can process — and every tool call is logged and monitored.

**How is Carrier Downloads different from IVANS?**
IVANS is batch — downloads are hours old by the time they reach the AMS. Carrier Downloads reads due amounts, due dates, late fees, and statuses live from carrier portals at the moment of action, which makes payment and cancellation automation safe to run.

**How much does it cost?**
Pricing is custom and scoped to the agency's workflows, carriers, integrations, and volume — no fixed plan list. Contact sales: info@thebermuda.us | (512) 428-8740.
