About Us | Overcoming the Lengthy Property Insurance Underwriting Process
The property insurance underwriting process has long been a source of frustration for independent agents. Hours spent gathering property details, evaluating risks, and navigating tedious workflows often leave agents stretched thin and unable to focus on their clients. These time-consuming tasks don’t just drain productivity—they hinder agents from delivering the exceptional service their clients expect.
Agents know this process too well: chasing after property specifications, combing through records, and manually analyzing data feels like a constant uphill climb. For professionals trying to grow their book of business and foster client relationships, the current workflow is inefficient and unsustainable.

Daniel Shanklin
Founder
SparrowShield was founded by Daniel Shanklin and his team at Boone Voyage, in collaboration with Chris Ganim of Ganim Insurance Agency, after numerous conversations with independent insurance agents who voiced their frustrations over the lengthy underwriting process. These professionals spent 5-10 hours gathering and evaluating property details, a time sink that hindered their productivity and client service. Recognizing a passionate need for an automated solution, the team envisioned an AI-driven tool that could achieve the same task in just 30 seconds. Driven by this feedback and determined to simplify complex workflows, they launched SparrowShield to revolutionize and streamline property insurance underwriting.

The Hidden Cost of an Outdated Process
Imagine losing hours of your workday to repetitive tasks—time that could be spent building client trust, closing deals, or expanding your agency. The issue goes beyond inconvenience. Every delay in underwriting not only slows your operations but also risks alienating clients who expect timely results. The cost of inefficiency can be staggering: wasted manpower, energy, and missed opportunities.
This outdated system creates a domino effect. Overwhelmed agents struggle to meet client expectations, bottlenecks slow down policy issuance, and agencies miss out on potential revenue. The frustration is real, and it’s growing.
