description: Stere is a New York-based insurance infrastructure company (founded 2021) that lets insurers, MGAs, and distribution
  partners build and launch digital insurance products - rating, quoting, binding, policy issuance, claims, and premium payments
  - in weeks rather than years. Its core offering is a "Stere API-as-a-Service" underwriting API (insurers can bring their
  own API or have Stere build one) plus a separate Stere Unified API and Stere Distribution layer that let brokers, wholesalers,
  fintechs, and embedded partners reach multiple carriers/products through a single connection (API, SDK, and webhooks). Stere
  Claims handles FNOL and claims workflow (portions of claims assessment and resolution are marketed as in-development/coming
  soon), and Stere Pay / Stere Pay Later provides a buy-now-pay-later gateway for insurance premiums. There is no self-serve
  public developer portal, published API reference, OpenAPI/Swagger document, or sandbox signup on stere.io; the marketing
  site references a "Stere Docs," "API Changelog," and "API Status" area under /developer/, but those paths return 404 publicly
  and integration is provisioned per customer after a sales-led partner/insurer onboarding engagement. The APIs below are
  honestly modeled from Stere's own product marketing pages, not from a published API reference.

  description: Stere's API-as-a-Service lets an insurer or MGA either bring its own existing underwriting API ("Bring-your-own-API")
    or have Stere build one, with rate, quote, bind, policy issuance, data enrichment, KYC/KYB, and billing capabilities,
    often issuing a policy within seconds with little human intervention. The companion Stere Unified API exposes multiple
    insurers' products through one interface for consuming platforms. No base URL, authentication scheme, or endpoint reference
    is published; access is provisioned per insurer/MGA under a commercial engagement.

    quote and bind across multiple carriers/products without integrating each one separately. No public endpoint reference,
    webhook event catalog, or base URL is published; partners receive credentials and integration docs directly from Stere.
