Optalitix, a specialist in underwriting and pricing technology, has entered a strategic partnership with Intermont to modernise Intermont’s core pricing and underwriting operations and support Optalitix’s expansion into the Netherlands.
Under the agreement, Optalitix will convert Intermont’s existing Excel-based pricing and underwriting models into fully cloud-based, end-to-end systems using Optalitix Quote and Optalitix Models.
The project is scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2026, with full deployment expected in the second or third quarter of the year.
Optalitix is an insurtech software company focused on pricing, underwriting, and lending analytics for insurers, reinsurers, MGAs, and lenders. It specializes in turning actuarial models built in Excel, Python, or R into scalable, cloud-hosted APIs and full pricing systems, with a strong emphasis on insurance pricing governance and speed to market.
The shift away from manual and fragmented workflows is designed to accelerate quote delivery, reduce operational error, and capture real-time portfolio data. Those changes aim to sharpen risk selection, improve underwriting decisions, and lift overall operational efficiency across the MGA’s business.
The partnership also establishes a flagship Optalitix implementation in the Dutch market, giving the insurtech a reference point for wider regional growth.
Intermont operates as a delegated authority MGA for multiple insurers, writing a commercial portfolio exceeding €120 mn in premium and managing more than 200 public tenders each year.
Dino Mantovani, enterprise sales executive at Optalitix, said the partnership marks a significant step for the company’s Dutch presence. He pointed to gains in agility, scalability, and speed to market without relying on costly bespoke system builds.
Pascal Durant, head of business development and underwriting director for casualty and marine at Intermont, and Ognjen Jovanovic, operations director, said the collaboration supports Intermont’s push toward a more data-driven operating model.
They said the new platform improves broker experience, underwriting capability, and portfolio visibility for carriers.
Optalitix sits at the intersection of actuarial science and cloud engineering. Its platform converts pricing and risk models into APIs “within minutes,” allowing insurers to deploy sophisticated rating and underwriting logic into production systems without full recoding.
This supports uses like retail and commercial pricing, reinsurance treaty pricing, and credit decisioning for lenders
Jeroen Baart, managing director at Intermont, said the platform strengthens commercial underwriting and improves how the MGA presents its portfolio to capacity providers by offering clearer control, transparency, and granular insight.
