Supporting MGAs with Scalable Distribution Tools

By aligning with Talage, Mission gains more than just technology. It adds in-house technical expertise that can be leveraged across its suite of MGAs. Talage will now play a central role in Mission’s strategy to enhance submission intelligence, expand digital integrations, and improve connectivity between program partners and the broader wholesale insurance ecosystem.

Talage’s functionality complements Mission’s broader vision to empower underwriting talent and provide infrastructure that supports long-term growth. With this acquisition, Mission can now offer scalable, digital-first submission tools to MGAs and retail agents navigating increasingly complex distribution challenges.

The platform is designed to solve everyday workflow problems faced by commercial insurance professionals. As part of the Mission ecosystem, it will continue to evolve, backed by a stable financial and operational foundation and informed by the needs of real users.
