Steadfast Group

Steadfast Group Limited (ASX:SDF) is the largest general insurance broker network and the largest group of insurance underwriting agencies in Australasia, headquartered in Sydney, Australia. It is a broker-intermediary rather than a risk carrier: the Steadfast Network comprises 414 independent brokerages placing approximately $12.7 billion in gross written premium, alongside 31 underwriting agencies writing roughly 100 products across business pack, liability, professional indemnity, cyber, construction, marine, aviation, farm, strata, motor and home and contents lines, plus complementary businesses covering premium funding (IQumulate), life insurance, workplace risk, legal and compliance. Its trading technology is the Steadfast Client Trading Platform (SCTP), launched in 2009, which lets network brokers send one question set to a panel of insurers for instant comparative quotes and which transacted over $1.5 billion in GWP in CY25 across 9 insurer lines and 23 connected partners; SCTP and the INSIGHT policy management platform are being consolidated into a broader "Steadfast Apps" broking platform. API posture, recorded honestly - Steadfast Group publishes NO developer portal, NO API documentation and NO specification of any kind, and a full crawl of all 311 pages in the public sitemap returned zero references to a developer portal, REST API, OpenAPI or Swagger. Two genuinely machine-readable surfaces nonetheless exist and neither is announced anywhere. The consumer Flood Risk Tracker is backed by a public, anonymous, undocumented JSON API that resolves Australian addresses against the national G-NAF dataset and returns Swiss Re river-flood and storm-surge risk layers, returning RFC 9457 problem details and advertising api-supported-versions 1.0; the OpenAPI in this record was derived from the tool's own client JavaScript and from live probes. Separately, idp.steadfast.com.au is an Okta-hosted OpenID Connect provider publishing a complete anonymous discovery document with PKCE S256 and DPoP, though client registration is commercially gated. The commercial surfaces remain closed: broker.steadfast.com.au is a credentialed broker login wall, and api.steadfast.com.au and api-sf.steadfast.com.au are live but undocumented hosts returning HTTP 403 at the root. Insurer and partner connectivity into SCTP is arranged commercially, not through self-serve onboarding. The company's most notable standards signal is governance rather than implementation: founder, Managing Director and CEO Robert B. Kelly AM is Chair of the ACORD Board in New York, though no ACORD, AL3, ACORD XML or NGDS implementation detail is published anywhere on the public site. Australia has the legal machinery for open insurance but no live obligation - the Consumer Data Right was designated to extend to general insurance and then deferred, so no regulatory forcing function pushes a broker network of this scale toward a public API.

Steadfast Group publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network: Address API and Risk API. Tagged areas include Insurance, Australia, Brokers, Insurance Broker Network, and General Insurance.

Steadfast Group’s developer surface includes engineering blog, legal docs, tooling, support, authentication, and 32 more developer resources.

Kin Score

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-09-08 · rubric v0.20.0
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Insurance regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics does not apply to this provider. The published contracts declare no write operations, and a read-only API cannot create-or-update. The facet is excluded from this provider's denominator entirely — not scored zero. A reference or data API is not deficient for being unable to upsert.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/steadfast-group: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

  description: Steadfast Group's Okta-hosted OpenID Connect provider, issuer https://idp.steadfast.com.au. It fronts the credentialed
    broker portal used by the Steadfast Network's 414 brokerages and, by inference from the shared estate, internal and partner
    applications. The discovery document is anonymously readable and advertises authorization, token, userinfo, JWKS, introspection,
    revocation, device-authorization, dynamic-client-registration and logout endpoints, with PKCE S256 and DPoP proof-of-possession
    supported. Client credentials are not self-serve - anonymous dynamic client registration returns 403 - so this is a discoverable
    but commercially gated surface, listed because its contract is genuinely machine-readable.
