Case Study: Players Health achieves a rapid 3-month launch of a first-of-its-kind sports insurance product with Socotra

Players Health Launches Breakthrough Sports Insurance Product on Socotra’s Modern Policy Core Platform

Players Health, a Minneapolis-based sports technology platform and insurtech MGA, needed to rapidly launch a first-of-its-kind insurance product that bundles general liability, directors’ & officers’, and athlete medical coverage for amateur and professional teams. The challenge was high complexity—400 forms, rapidly changing rating rules, a digital broker and direct-to-consumer experience, and a multistate regulatory rollout—so Players Health required a modern, API-driven core to deliver an embedded, digital-first solution.

Players Health chose Socotra Policy Core to power the product, integrating Socotra with BizDynamics’ digital engagement and rating platform. Socotra enabled the company to develop and launch the complex, three-coverage product in just three months (vs. an estimated one to two years using traditional systems), deploy it across 41 states, and replicate a Canada launch in two months—demonstrating clear speed-to-market, scalability, and operational agility driven by Socotra’s cloud-native, API-first platform.
