Modern Quote Flow for Life Insurance Built in 4 Weeks

Case Study: LifeQuotes by PathWork

LifeQuotes.com partnered with Melt Studio to rapidly modernize its quote acquisition experience. The goal: replicate the user-friendly interface of SmartFinancial’s form while making it uniquely branded and efficient. In just four weeks, we built a high-performing, mobile-optimized form and landing page using TypeScript and NextJS—improving speed, UX clarity, and brand consistency.

THE CHALLENGE

Rebuilding the Quote Flow Experience—Fast

LifeQuotes.com needed to enhance its online quote experience without disrupting user flow. Their existing page wasn’t converting well and carried unnecessary clutter. They aimed to replicate SmartFinancial’s success—but faster, cleaner, and tailored to their brand. With only four weeks to execute, speed and precision were key.

OUR SOLUTION

Modernizing with Precision: A Form and Landing Page That Converts

Requirements

We began by auditing SmartFinancial’s flow to understand what worked, then trimmed friction points—removing video intros, unnecessary content, and menus. We focused on a direct call-to-action with strong alignment to LifeQuotes.com’s visual identity.

Application

Building

Our developers built the landing and quote form using TypeScript and NextJS. The solution was fully responsive, fast-loading, and designed to deliver a smooth user journey across devices. Key tech decisions ensured long-term maintainability and performance.

Prototype

Release

Within one sprint cycle, the form and page were tested, refined, and launched. Fourteen user stories were completed with 33 story points delivered. The result: a polished MVP that mirrored SmartFinancial’s flow—optimized for LifeQuotes.com’s brand and business logic.

Exceptionally high skill and little oversight required, which at the moment allows me to work on other parts of the project. The engineers are self-starters and take initiative on their own. I really look forward to working long-term with you all

hi juan, wanted to drop a note, i think luis has really stepped up, he's meeting my expectations especially over the last week. will keep monitoring but this is really promising. in other news, wanted to leave feedback for the dev team, hans, oscar, and sebastian have been absolute superstars. i've never worked with a group of guys who are so good about executing good quality code aligned to business expectations. when i don't have to touch the SDLC constantly and almost have too little to do for a project i know the team is proactive. please let them know they're doing great. off the back of this, i work for another company that is seeking an initial exploration into moving away from eastern europe in their current engagement, would love to have a discussion with you about that company's needs as well. 4 person team + pm. we are only just barely getting started with exploring the idea of changing the team but i thought i'd throw it your way as a heads up for possibility.
