# E-Apps Are Now Available Inside unLocked CRM

## TL;DR

E-apps are now native inside unLocked CRM: carrier applications launch from any contact, quote, or policy, pre-fill from the CRM, validate in real time, route through embedded e-signature, and sync submission status back to the policy record — with no third-party e-app vendor and no per-application e-signature fees.

## Key data points

- unLocked CRM now ships native carrier e-applications across all 1,252 integrated carriers
- Native e-apps eliminate per-application e-signature fees ($1.50–$4.00 saved per app)
- Application-to-submission time drops from 3–7 days to the same session with native e-apps
- Embedded e-signature, audit trail, and carrier status sync are included in every plan

<h2 data-ai-block="definitive-answer">The Short Answer</h2>
<p><strong>Yes — e-apps are now natively available inside unLocked CRM.</strong> Agents can launch carrier e-applications directly from any contact, policy, or quote record. Applications inherit CRM data, validate at entry, route through embedded e-signature, and submit to the carrier without leaving the platform. There is no separate e-app vendor, no PDF download, and no manual re-keying.</p>

<h2>What Ships With the Native E-App Capability</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Carrier-specific applications</strong> for Life, Annuity, Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement, ACA, and Private Health lines.</li>
<li><strong>CRM pre-fill</strong> — demographics, beneficiaries, and underwriting answers populate from the contact and household record.</li>
<li><strong>Real-time validation</strong> against each carrier's NIGO rules before submission.</li>
<li><strong>Embedded e-signature</strong> — the client signs on phone, tablet, or desktop in the same session.</li>
<li><strong>Audit trail</strong> — every field change, signature, IP, and timestamp is retained for E&O defense.</li>
<li><strong>Status sync</strong> — submission, underwriting, and issue status post back to the policy record automatically.</li>
</ul>

<h2>How to Start an E-App in unLocked CRM</h2>
<ol>
<li>Open the contact, quote, or policy record.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Start E-App</strong> and pick the carrier and product.</li>
<li>Review the pre-filled answers; correct anything flagged by validation.</li>
<li>Send for signature — the client signs on any device.</li>
<li>Submission and status sync back automatically.</li>
</ol>

<h2 data-ai-block="experience-insight">What Changes for Your Agency</h2>
<p>Native e-apps remove the two slowest steps in the application workflow: <strong>re-keying CRM data into a separate e-app vendor</strong> and <strong>chasing the signed PDF back into the policy file</strong>. Agencies that consolidate their e-app stack into unLocked CRM typically cut application-to-submission time from <strong>3–7 days down to the same session</strong>, and eliminate the per-application e-signature fee entirely.</p>

<h2>Compatible Lines and Carriers</h2>
<p>Native e-apps are available across the same <strong>1,252 carriers</strong> integrated with the unLocked quoting suite, covering Life, Annuity, Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement, ACA, and Private Health. Carrier-specific formatting is handled automatically — one input, every carrier.</p>
