At Ivans, we’re here to ignite connectivity for the industry with solutions that help you with appetite, sales and distribution, book roll and more. In the past year, we’ve launched new capabilities and have seen more agents and carriers embracing technology in their daily processes. Let’s look at our product enhancements and tech adoption by the numbers.

Ivans Download by the Numbers

We’ve been delivering enhancements to Ivans Exchange™ and Ivans Download™ that improve the user experience, including allowing carriers to search for agents by agency code and more.

    monthly Ivans Exchange users, increasing from 3,500 in July 2023.
