wysh brings the process of buying life insurance into a web app. Customers can work out how much coverage they need, apply online, and manage their policy without a medical exam or a conversation with an agent.
I worked on the customer-facing front end in 2022–2023, joining the team through Effectus Software.
From a quote to a policy
The product covers term life and accidental death insurance. An online calculator helps customers size their coverage before they complete the application questionnaire. Once covered, they can return to the web app to manage and adjust their policy.
My contribution
My work focused on the customer-facing web application within a larger engineering team. I worked in React and TypeScript, connecting the interface to the product’s GraphQL API.
The stack
- React for the customer-facing interface
- TypeScript throughout the front end
- GraphQL for communication with the back end
