The hub launches with a capability called “headless annuities,” which enables carriers, broker/dealers, insurance marketing organizations and wealth technology providers to embed annuity workflows directly within their existing platforms.
Powered by iPipeline’s Affirm execution engine, headless annuities supports annuity processing, validation and compliance capabilities within the firms’ own platforms and workflows. The platform also provides access to API documentation, endpoint and schema information, and a testing environment that allows users to work with demo annuity APIs using sample data.
According to iPipeline, additional API-based capabilities will be added to the Novera API Hub in the coming months.
