How Swallow Helps Erie Indemnity Group Ship Rates Faster

Erie Indemnity Group's Challenge

Erie Indemnity Group has built a reputation for disciplined underwriting across personal and commercial lines. However, like many mid-market carriers, their actuarial and product teams face significant delays in translating Excel rating models into production-ready systems, often taking weeks to navigate SERFF filings across multiple states.

The Problem You’re Solving Today

Your actuaries build sophisticated pricing models in Excel. The transition to a live quoting environment involves handing off these models to engineering, waiting for build cycles, and QA-ing the output, all while rate filings accumulate and speed-to-market suffers.

What Swallow Does Differently

Swallow transforms your existing Excel rating models into production APIs without the need for engineering handoffs. Your actuaries can continue working in Excel while Swallow manages the rest.

  • Excel-native workflow: Upload your workbook, map inputs and outputs, and Swallow generates a rate API that mirrors your model exactly.
  • SERFF-ready filing support: Auto-generate filing exhibits and rate comparisons directly from your model, formatted for state-specific SERFF requirements.
  • No-code deployment: Push rate changes live without waiting for a development sprint, allowing your product team to control the timeline.

Carriers Like You Are Already Using Swallow

Cincinnati Financial reduced their rate filing cycle from 14 weeks to just 3 using Swallow’s Excel-to-API pipeline. Their actuarial team now pushes rate updates to production the same week they finalize the model.

“We used to dread the handoff to engineering. Now there is no handoff. The model is the API.” — VP Actuarial, Cincinnati Financial
