For rating and rules, we use Polaris ProductWriter, fully integrated with Outrun - and the most powerful rating engine in the UK insurance market. Capable of handling any product complexity, it’s industry-owned, industry-trusted, and used by the UK’s biggest insurers.
Your products are built on the industry’s standard, not a vendor’s proprietary system, which means the products you build are genuinely, permanently yours. The product build expertise sits across the industry, not locked in one software house. Because the industry funds and develops ProductWriter together, it evolves with the market.
Whoever controls your rating engine, your build process, or your distribution ends up controlling your build costs and your launch speed. With Outrun, that control is yours.
We can build your products for you, you can build them yourself, or bring in third party resource - the choice is yours. Distribute to your brokers via our portal, or into the wider market e-trade environment via Polaris iMarket.
Your team can update question sets, documents, referral and endorsement libraries and pricing rules directly. You retain as much control as you want over product build and the day-to-day running of your products and processes.
The Outrun team has spent decades in specialist insurance operations - building schemes, handling binder updates, managing bordereaux.
We often hear: “Normally software providers build it and when it’s not right they blame the spec.”
We know where to focus our attention. On product builds for example, we review the underwriting guide in detail. That can surface gaps where the question set wouldn’t capture all the required risk data, or missing rating logic. Our experience means detail doesn’t get missed.
Quotation, new business, MTAs, endorsements, renewals, lapse, and cancellation in one place.

Most ways to run a full MGA come with a trade-off. Legacy full PAS systems handle the wider operation well, but DA work rarely plays to their strengths. Modern proprietary platforms do products well - but on an engine they own, with the products you build living in their system. Spreadsheets work until they don’t.
Outrun’s MGA Platform is built to avoid that trade-off - a full PAS that does DA properly, using rating and rules from the engine the industry owns. Every part of an MGA operation in one place, with the products you build staying yours.
