Tech E&O
API Autoquotes
For Tech E&O, the At-Bay API autoquotes up to $2M in aggregate limits for companies up to $25M in annual revenue. Submissions above this range will have to undergo manual underwriter review.
Differences between TEO and Surplus Cyber
Conditional questions: Some Tech E&O-related questions are conditional, meaning they’re only required based on previous answers. Only send answers for required questions, based on the insured’s nature of business and revenue.
Industry: industry (6-digit NAICS code) is optional for Tech E&O. As part of the response to any Tech E&O quote request, an industry of ‘00’ is returned, which is our own classification for technology companies.
Tech E&O Retro Dates
An optional Tech E&O retro date field (teo_retroactive_date) can be passed through the POST /quotes and POST /bind requests.
If no teo_retroactive_date field is specified, it will be defaulted to equal the effective date.
If a teo_retroactive_date value is provided and is before the effective date of the policy, additional post-bind contingencies will apply.
"dates":{
"effective": "2022-09-27",
"teo_retroactive_date": "2021-09-27" //will trigger post-bind contingencies
}

Triggering Post-Bind Contingencies
Post-bind contingencies will effectively turn the quote into a manual submission(the bind stage will have to be reviewed by an UW). If your polling/integration is not yet setup for this, please check out our work around on deep linking quotes within your portal.
