Sentinel Rating Engine · In development

Sentinel Rating Engine.

For insurance teams that want to retain control of their rating logic while making it easier to test, version and ultimately operate as a service.

The problem

Excel can't serve customers.

Insurance rating logic often begins in spreadsheets, scripts or bespoke internal systems. Systems that don't integrate well with the outside world, and require additional engineering around packaging, deployment, API access, version management and monitoring.

Sentinel is Zenith's first dedicated software product. Take your pricing logic from Excel to Pure Python.

The foundation

Python at the core.

A lightweight, modular rating framework, developed openly. Commercial tooling for deployment and day-to-day operation is being developed alongside it.

Keep your rating logic

Develop and maintain rating calculations in Python. Teams own and maintain their pricing logic, using a familiar language rather than a proprietary pricing interface.

Separate logic from operations

Keep the rating implementation separate from the operational components needed to deploy it. The open-source framework and the commercial platform are related, distinct parts of Sentinel.

Commercial platform · In development

The product direction.

These are planned commercial capabilities. The managed platform has not been released as a generally available service.

In development

Managed deployment

A planned platform for publishing rating services and managing their operation.

Planned

Versions & rollback

Tooling intended to help teams introduce new versions and revert deployments when required.

Planned

Rating API & monitoring

A service interface and operational visibility intended to connect rating logic with quoting and insurance workflows.

Who it is for

Built around insurance teams.

Sentinel is being designed with smaller insurers, brokers and managing general agents (MGAs) in mind, particularly teams looking for a practical way to put Python rating logic into operation.

Sentinel is under active development. We welcome conversations with potential design partners about their rating workflows and deployment needs.
