Integration connects no-code product development with multi-carrier digital distribution, enabling insurers to launch and scale faster than ever.
Menlo Park, CA — Aug. 5, 2025 — Herald’s unified API for multi-carrier quoting will integrate with Joshu’s award-winning no-code underwriting and distribution platform, marking a significant step forward in modernizing the commercial insurance ecosystem. This partnership offers insurers, MGAs, and brokers a eamless, end-to-end solution for rapidly launching and efficiently distributing digital insurance products.
This strategic collaboration combines Joshu’s ability to launch insurance products digitally on its API-first platform in under 100 days with Herald’s robust API capabilities and distribution network. The result empowers insurers to distribute new products across an extensive network of digital distribution platforms, significantly reducing time-to-market and simplifying the distribution process. It also expands the number of markets digital distributors can offer.
“This partnership is about speed and simplicity,” said Roy Mill, CEO and co-founder of Joshu. “Joshu’s has been helping insurers launch their products to market faster. Our partnership with Herald and its extensive network of digital distributors means that Joshu’s clients can now become accessible to hundreds of producers nationwide with a flip of a switch.”
The combined solution bridges the historically siloed process of product development and digital distribution. With Joshu, carriers can configure and launch fully-rated products through an intuitive, no-code interface. Herald’s API then connects those products to over 60 commercial insurance lines from top carriers, enabling real-time quoting, binding, and policy issuance through a single integration.
“Together, we’re eliminating the friction that has long slowed down insurance innovation,” said Matt Antoszyk, CEO and co-founder of Herald. “Joshu makes it easy to build and rate new products, and Herald ensures those products reach the market through modern, API-driven distribution.”
The combined solution is ideal for MGAs, carriers, and insurtech platforms seeking to digitize specialty lines, streamline underwriting, and expand their reach without heavy IT investment. Users can configure products in Joshu and distribute them via Herald’s API, all without writing a single line of code. This partnership marks a significant step forward in modernizing the commercial insurance ecosystem, offering a scalable, flexible, and efficient pathway from product ideation to market launch.
