Case Study: Symetra achieves rapid digital‑first product innovation with Socotra

Symetra Chooses Socotra as Core Platform

Symetra, the Bellevue, Washington–based life insurer, selected Socotra as its core platform to support a shift to digital-first products. Facing a need to rapidly develop and deploy new offerings and to test product models and pricing, Symetra chose Socotra’s cloud-native core with open, pre-built APIs and public documentation to enable agile product development and seamless integrations.

Socotra delivered a cloud-native platform, powerful data model and publicly documented APIs that let Symetra’s technical team model products, run pricing proofs of concept, and manage the entire implementation in-house. As a result, Symetra was able to move quickly on a short timeline, accelerate digitization of its product offerings, and gain a flexible foundation for ongoing innovation thanks to Socotra.
