Verify licence status and lines of authority against the source of record, keep appointments and terminations current in every state, track renewals and CE before they lapse, and prepare filings the licensing officer submits.
A producer is onboarded, and the agent pulls current licence and appointment status from the source of record.
02
A renewal falls due, and the agent identifies the appointment regime configured for that state and line.
Reason
03
Each status is checked against the source of record, not accepted as last reported.
04
The appointment regime configured for that state and line is applied, never one national rule.
05
Every status finding is bound to the record and the state rule it was checked against.
Decide
06
Lapses, gaps and stale appointments are flagged before a commission or a filing goes out.
07
The assembled package is routed to the licensing officer for review and submission.
Out
08
The status checked, the rule applied and the officer's decision stay on the producer's record.
09
Execute write actions only inside the approval boundaries agreed during implementation.
→Product statement
The agent verifies status and assembles the filing; the licensing officer decides what is submitted, and commission stays blocked until status confirms current.

No human action required
Stages 1 to 4 run unaided, and nothing is filed or paid at any of them — the agent is verifying, and the officer's lane opens at the confidence gate.

✓Apply the appointment regime configured for that state.
✓Track CE completion and renewal deadlines against each state's own cycle.
✓Flag lapses, gaps, termination deadlines.

01Approved path
Paying an unlicensed producer
Commission is blocked until licence and appointment status verify as current — paying an unlicensed producer is a violation regardless of intent.
02Human review
Point the officer at what needs
§1033 flags, regime exceptions and stale appointments are surfaced, so review starts where exposure concentrates.

Integrations
Typical integrations
Five system groups connect to the same agent. Which of them are in scope is decided in discovery.

A roster-clean percentage across every state can look acceptable while a handful of producer cohorts carry most of the authority defects. Nestack reports the authority-defect rate by slice, not only in total.

Evidence-linked improvement
Every cycle leaves the roster better tested
A cycle closes when the lapsed appointment is a regression case the next release must pass. That suite is what the next roster checked is measured against.
Improvement cycle · five stagesSwitchback — the path turns at Improve and returns at Learn
01Detect
Authority-defect rate rises in a producer slice.
02Diagnose
The commission paid to a lapsed appointment is traced back through the status feed until the cause narrows to one missed re-poll.
03Improve
The fix is versioned, with the records that motivated it attached.
04Verify
Nothing releases until the affected status cases pass again.
05Learn
The case is kept permanently, and the state rules change with it.
Learn → DetectThe return edge. Detection next time runs against a suite one record longer.
