Bold Brief
Be better.

Thimble goes live as the first agent-to-agent quote on platform
Bold Penguin’s AI agent (DeX ai) now negotiates quotes directly with Thimble’s agent, turning what used to be a custom carrier integration into a conversation between two systems. Agents provide a business name and address, and the agent handles the exchange end to end, returning a priced, bindable quote. Coverage selections are reviewed and approved by the agent before any quote is requested, keeping a human in control of decisions made in their name.
Be broader.
With new carrier integrations and an ever-growing list of coverage types, the Bold Penguin Terminal has your back, no matter the market conditions. Here are the newest carriers and products in the Bold Penguin Terminal that will increase your market access and fill appetite gaps.
Be brighter.
Learn from the experts! Here are a few upcoming events we hope you can attend and a few quick reads to keep you updated on insurance news and trends.
