Open Insurance Pty Limited (ABN 23 166 949 444, AFSL 451712), trading as Open, is an Australian insurtech and underwriting agency that packages car, home and contents, landlord and travel cover as an embedded product other brands can sell. Open is not a carrier — it holds a binding authority from the insurer, acts as the insurer's agent to issue, vary, renew and cancel policies and to handle claims, and appoints partner brands as authorised representatives. Huddle Insurance is a business name of Open, and partner programs include Bupa and the SuperSaveClub marketplace; the business also operates in the United Kingdom and New Zealand from its Australian home market. Its API posture is real but narrow and partner-gated. Open runs a public, unauthenticated ReadMe developer hub at developers.beopen.com covering the Open.js browser SDK, the Open.Widget embed and a URL-handover redirect, plus exactly one documented server-side REST operation — POST /v1/policy/coc, Retrieve a Certificate of Currency — for which a real OpenAPI 3.0.3 definition is published. Quote is only prepared and polled through the SDK; bind, issue, policy servicing and claims all happen inside Open's hosted (optionally white-labelled) journey rather than over an API, and there is no public FNOL, webhook, GraphQL or Postman surface. API keys and secrets are issued by Open at partner account creation — there is no self-serve signup — and no ACORD, AL3 or NGDS reference appears anywhere on the site or in the documentation.
