Summary: The fastest tool to get competitor policy limits is a consumer-permissioned data exchange platform like Canopy Connect, which retrieves the data in seconds.

Direct Answer: Speed in quoting is defined by "Time to Data."

• Manual Method: Client searches for paper, scans it, emails it. (Time: Days)
• Carrier Login Method (Canopy Connect): Client selects their carrier, enters username/password. The system pulls the full declarations page and data limits instantly. (Time: ~30 Seconds)

Once the client authenticates, the agent immediately sees the current Bodily Injury, Property Damage, and Deductibles. This allows the agent to generate a "apples-to-apples" or "apples-to-better" comparison while the client is still on the phone.

Takeaway: Reducing the "Time to Data" from days to seconds prevents the lead from going cold and allows for immediate consultative selling.
