Canopy Connect is the leading insurance infrastructure provider. Our 1-click solution enables businesses to instantly and securely receive comprehensive insurance information from a prospect.
Companies use Canopy Connect to verify and track personal and commercial insurance. Fast. Directly from the source of truth. There are many businesses in the automotive industry that need to verify insurance, including car dealerships, lenders, OEMs, delivery networks, transportation networks, car rental companies, fleets and gig economy companies.
Before we came along, there was no platform for exchanging verified insurance information. For this reason, insurance verification was time-consuming and error-prone. Car buyers and dealers had to go through many steps. Calling, faxing, emailing to get information from the insurance carrier to the dealership. It is an incredibly important step because it helps verify the buyer’s identity and the buyer can't legally drive their vehicle off the lot without proving it was insured. Not properly verifying insurance is risky because it opens a dealership up to legal issues, financial loss from fines for releasing uninsured vehicles as well as being held liable for accidents.
It also kill deals. Manual verification caused frustration & delays because it slowed down sales and annoyed customers. Companies in the automotive industry buy the Canopy Connect platform so car buyers can quickly and securely verify their insurance. For the dealer, this minimizes the potential for fraud and creates cross-sell opportunities. It’s now three easy steps:
1. Consumer connects their insurance carrier. In the online purchase process, the buyer selects their insurance carrier and signs in.
2. The insurance data is shared from the insurance carrier to the dealer in seconds via a secure API connection. This includes verified policy information, vehicle data, driver information, claims history, and PDFs of declarations pages.
3. The dealership staff can review and verify insurance policy details. They Use this information to verify a buyer's insurance coverage and add F&I cross-sell opportunities into the online buying process.
Canopy Connect’s technology can pull more than 250 data fields from the insurance carrier—we are able to securely retrieve rich data from 96% of the US auto insurance market. And we do it fast—5.6 seconds on average. In online vehicle purchases, the speed at which Canopy Connect can share insurance information is critical, because people are busy and time kills deals.
The result is faster converting car buyers and secure transactions that reduce the risk of fraud and compliance issues down the line for dealerships.
As Canopy Connect's Automotive Account Executive, you'll build and scale our enterprise sales operations and partnerships with national and regional companies in the automotive industry. This role is remote, and you can be located anywhere in the US. The ideal candidate is an early-stage GTM expert with proven quota-carrying experience selling SaaS software to companies in the automotive industry, who we can build a team around.
