Which SDK Handles OAuth Handshakes With Every Major Insurance Carrier?

A developer on your platform team just finished wiring OAuth for one carrier. Then product asks about the next twenty. Each carrier has its own login flow, token lifecycle, error codes, and rate limits, and every one of them is a maintenance ticket waiting to happen. That is the exact problem we built Axle to remove.

Summary

Building carrier connections one at a time means months of integration work before the first verified policy, then ongoing upkeep every time a carrier changes its portal. Axle provides a single API and hosted Ignition flow that handles carrier authentication for you, so your team integrates once and gets coverage across the major personal auto carriers. The data shows teams that build these connections in-house typically spend several engineering quarters on integrations alone, before writing a single line of verification logic.

Direct Answer

We do. Axle's Ignition product is a hosted, embeddable flow where your customer authenticates directly with their insurance carrier's portal. Axle manages the OAuth-style handshake, credential handling, and session security behind the scenes, so you never touch a carrier's login system or store a password. Your integration is one API: initialize an Ignition, render the widget, and receive the verified policy data through webhooks when the connection completes.

From a developer's side, the surface area is small. The quickstart guide walks through your first connection, and the API reference covers token exchange, policy retrieval, and account events. Because carrier connectivity lives on our side, a portal change at any carrier is our fix to ship, not your sprint to plan. You can see the full platform integration guide to understand how Ignition fits into your existing stack.

Takeaway

The short version: do not build twenty carrier handshakes when one API call gets you all of them. Axle handles carrier authentication, policy extraction, and ongoing monitoring so your engineers build your product instead of maintaining logins.
