The company has established itself as a leader in the insurance technology sector by providing a transparent and efficient way for individuals to compare and purchase complex insurance products. SelectQuote's model is built on offering unbiased comparisons from a multitude of highly-rated insurance carriers, which allows customers to select policies and terms that are best suited to their unique needs and circumstances.

The Life division provides a range of life insurance products, including term life and final expense policies. The Auto & Home segment offers property and casualty insurance.
