Insurance Software Development | Next.js + Supabase

Most projects land between $40K and $200K. A policyholder self-service portal with payments and certs runs $40K-$70K. A full policy admin system with quoting, binding, DocuSign, and claims intake is $120K-$200K. The cost difference vs. legacy platforms like Guidewire or Majesco is 5-10x lower because we're building on Supabase and Next.js instead of configuring a monolithic suite. We'll give you a fixed-scope estimate after the domain mapping session in week one.

A focused MVP — say, agent quoting portal plus DocuSign bind — ships in 6-8 weeks. A full policy administration platform with claims, self-service portals, and rate table management takes 10-12 weeks. We deploy to Vercel preview environments from week two, so your team sees working software early and often. We don't do 6-month waterfall builds.

Guidewire and Duck Creek are built for Tier 1 carriers with $5M+ IT budgets and 18-month implementation cycles. If you're an MGA, program administrator, or mid-market carrier, you don't need that. Next.js on Vercel gives you sub-second page loads and edge caching for agent portals that serve 50 states. Supabase gives you Postgres with real-time subscriptions, row-level security, and built-in auth — no separate identity provider. You get a modern, performant platform at a fraction of the cost, and your team can actually maintain it.

Yes. We've built integrations with IVANS, ISO, AAIS, and direct carrier APIs for comparative rating. Next.js API routes handle the middleware layer — transforming ACORD XML into JSON, managing rate calls, and caching responses. If you're working with a specific carrier's REST or SOAP API, we'll wire it in during the core workflow build phase.

Supabase runs on AWS with SOC 2 Type II certification. We enforce row-level security at the database layer so agents only see their book, adjusters only see assigned claims, and policyholders only see their own data. All traffic is TLS 1.3. We support audit logging on every policy transaction. If you need a NAIC data security model law compliance review, we'll map controls to the framework during the launch phase.

Typically 2-3 engineers, one designer, and a project lead who's shipped insurance software before. We don't staff projects with eight junior devs. A senior Next.js engineer handles the frontend and API layer, a Supabase/database engineer handles schema design and RLS policies, and a third engineer focuses on DocuSign and third-party integrations. You'll have a direct Slack channel with the build team.

We offer monthly retainers starting at $3K/month for ongoing support — bug fixes, rate table updates, new state filings, feature additions. Most insurance clients stay on retainer because the regulatory landscape changes quarterly. You'll also get full source code ownership, deployment runbooks, and documentation so your internal team can take over if you prefer.

We've migrated policy books from legacy systems including Applied Epic, AMS360, and custom-built Access databases. We build a migration pipeline that maps your existing data model to the new Supabase schema, run validation checks on every policy record, and do a parallel-run period where both systems operate simultaneously. You'll end up with a clean Postgres database, full policy history, and zero data loss.
