iter8, Appulate Team Up to Expand Reach of Uplink

iter8, an insurance solutions software developer, and Appulate, a leading provider of forms parsing and data bridging technology, are pleased to announce a partnership in which iter8 will offer Appulate’s Uplink as an integrated part of iter8 product and service solutions.

Uplink can be used to bridge ACORD forms directly out of an agent’s management system to single or multiple insurance carriers, or it can be used as a back-office tool to extract data from PDF forms. As a back-office tool, Uplink recognizes and processes PDF forms through its data recognition engine or through an OCR process.

The partnership will enable Appulate to broaden the reach of the solution, and through integration to iter8’s communic8, ensure that the flow of data from agency management system to carrier policy administration system is smooth.

Insurance carriers can then use communic8, the iter8 connectivity hub solution, and integrate the information with core systems, or apply business logic to validate, update or qualify the information. Uplink is currently in use by more than 25 carriers, offering more than 30 ACORD forms, which, according to Appulate, represents the highest level in the industry. It is also compatible with all major agency management systems.
