Most prospecting starts with a name, a title, and a guess. That's not how commercial-insurance distribution works. Seven16 Intel maps the writing-company paper trail behind every U.S. commercial-insurance agency — refreshed monthly against state filings — so carriers, MGAs, wholesalers, and program teams can find the agencies already appointed with the markets they compete with.
| Agency | State | Specialization | Appts | Diversity | Contacts | Verified |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Example Agency A | TX | Specialist | 7 | Medium | 4 | May 2026 |
| Example Agency B | OK | Exposure | 3 | Low | 2 | May 2026 |
| Example Agency C | AR | Specialist | 5 | Medium | 3 | May 2026 |
The directory at a glance
Live counts pulled from production. All 50 states + DC + 3 territorial add-ons. Refreshed monthly against state DOI filings.
Distribution teams targeting by job title and revenue band waste outreach on agents who can't place the risk. The signal that actually predicts placement is the carrier appointment behind the agency.
A producer's LinkedIn says VP, Commercial Lines. That doesn't tell you which carriers they can bind today.
Marketing pages list aspirational partners. State DOI filings show who's actually writing the paper.
Stale rolodexes burn outreach. A monthly refresh against public filings keeps the recruit list honest.
Seven16 Intel targets by the appointment relationships that actually matter.
Generic B2B contact databases answer one question. Carrier financial-data vendors answer another. Neither tells you which agencies actually hold the carrier paper your program competes with this quarter.
The same four steps run every month against fresh state filings. No vendor magic, no opaque scoring — the methodology is published openly.
State DOI filings, carrier appointments, agency records, contacts, cluster affiliations, and market data — every month.
Map writing companies to parent insurance groups. Reconcile agency entities and contact records across sources.
Rank agencies by vertical specialization, appointment volume, carrier diversity, and target-program fit.
Browse, filter, save, export, and build recruit campaigns from a list of verified, market-accessible agencies.
Each vertical is defined by the carriers that actually write it. We map appointments to the specialty programs your team competes against — not loose SIC codes or self-reported industry tags.

The same dataset, scored five different ways. Pick the play that matches your quarter.
Find agencies already appointed with the carrier your program competes against.
Build vertical-specific recruit lists by state, appointment behavior, and carrier fit.
See where competitors have agency penetration and your distribution is thin.
Prioritize agencies with repeated appointment behavior in your target vertical.
Exclude agencies with stale appointments or too much carrier concentration.
Open methodology. No black-box vendor magic. Each input is independently auditable against state filings.
Tells whether the agency exists in the market — how many writing-company relationships they hold.
Tells what they actually write — concentration of appointments inside a vertical vs. spread thin.
Tells whether they may be open to another market — low diversity flags concentration risk.
Tells whether the data can be trusted — every row carries a verified-as-of date.
Who can actually write this business? Who already understands the risk? Who’s holding the carrier paper your program competes with? Who has too many markets? Who has too few? Who’s worth a BDM’s time?
For years, distribution teams answered those questions with old CRM notes, conference memory, website logos, and generic lead databases. None of which read the appointment trail.
Seven16 Intel gives the market a better map.
We start with the appointment trail because that’s where market access shows up. Then we normalize the writing companies, connect them to parent groups, score the agency signal, and give distribution teams a list they can actually work.
The goal is not more names.
The goal is fewer wasted conversations.
Every signal in the platform traces back to a public source. The methodology is open — the data is what it is.
Public department-of-insurance filings are the ground truth for who's appointed where.
Carrier subsidiaries are reconciled to a canonical writing-company entity per filing.
Writing companies roll up to their parent insurance group so program competition is legible.
The full pipeline runs monthly. Rows stamped older than a quarter are flagged stale.
Confidence-tier outputs from automated matching get a second pass before they flip to verified.
Every agency, contact, and appointment carries a verified-as-of date — no opaque last-refreshed banner.
