About us
Built for Agency
Commission Work
Port & Starboard builds CommissionScope in Virginia Beach. CommissionScope reads carrier statements, matches policies, calculates producer splits, and builds the payout file.
Why We Built
CommissionScope
After years of helping agencies migrate data and connect systems, Port & Starboard kept meeting the same problem. Commission processing was consuming the agency's best operations people.
Staff spent days, sometimes weeks, reconciling statements from dozens of carriers. Formats differed, policy numbers were missing or reformatted, and producers wondered whether they were paid correctly. Owners had no clear view of where commission revenue actually came from.
We built CommissionScope to fix that. It is not a generic accounting tool adapted for insurance. It is a purpose-built commission workflow from people who understand carrier statements, producer splits, and chargebacks from the inside.
The goal is simple: see every commission line, find payments that are missing or short, and support an accurate payout review with proper chargeback handling.
Unmatched lines stay visible
Lines that do not match an exact policy number wait in review with their evidence. CommissionScope does not claim it finds every carrier underpayment.
Balanced Splits
Every producer split is calculated from your commission program and balanced to the statement line.
Workflow Review
A guided pilot proves extraction, matching, and payout review on your own approved statements before rollout.
Complete Audit Trail
Each upload, match, calculation, and approval is recorded with who did it and when.
What We Bring to the Table
Port & Starboard builds CommissionScope from agency commission work. The public pages describe what the application does now, not a roadmap.

Data Migration

AMS Platform
ExpertsCommissionScope ingests an EZLynx report export automatically, and we help you set up the report. Each policy has a link that opens it in EZLynx by policy number. Other agency management systems come in by CSV.
